    this is delicious although I did a few amount adjustments, it wasn't spicy enough for our taste so I added in some cayenne pepper, I omitted the cardamom pods and used ground nutmeg, great combo of flavors, this was made for KK's tag game, thank you for a great recipe Char!

    Done

    Per Chef Zee - the Liquid Seems Sparse. No Reason Why You Can't Add More Tomato, and Then Also Add a Good Pinch of Sugar Against Possible Acidity from the Tomato.
