    Makes a lot of sauce so can easily double the chicken, this time I also added 2 red chillis (like the lamb version), i just used whole frozen red chillis at the onion stage and then it got blended. It was really good with the chillis and not too spicy

    Yummmmm this was soo good. Added a green chilli that I had already, which made good flavour without the heat. Will absolutely make this again.
