My ex loved curry, so I played with this recipe until it suited our tastes. This has a wonderful curry flavor and is so good. I don't like recipes that say they are curry, and you can hardly taste the curry in it. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.

The final result is a creamy, fragrant, and satisfying meal. Serve over a fluffy bed of rice.
