Curry is always good and this one is ideal for a hot day - served with rice and a few sambals it is a meal in a moment - ideal when one does not know when the power will be off or on!!!!! It can be made in a pot on the stove if there is a power cut and one has a gas ring! It takes a little longer but the effect is the same.
