Hi Ume,
Could you please tell me what kind of curry powder did you use for this recipe?
Hi Megan,
Umm.. I don’t remember the brand name :p
But, it can be found at any super markets (eg: Coles, W/W ..) and is in orange/yellow color container.
Thanks Ume
I think I know which one it is. I want to make this tonight. It sounds yum!
