Love these a lot!

A classic Indian side dish, and a great recipe to have up your sleeve! So pleased to hear how much you enjoyed it!

5/5

Oh my word! This was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. I want to make it again already! Made it with the Bombay Potatoes and Easy Indian Veg, all so so good! ❤️

This is the best feedback we could hope to get! We're so pleased to hear that you were totally dazzled by this dopiaza!

4/5

So simple but so tasty. You could use any veg.

We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed this handy veg side dish!

5/5

I just don't understand why I have not made this amazing chutney before. Perfectly sweet, perfectly hot and beautifully fragrant. This chutney will enrich simple dishes like jacket potato with cheese as well as have a welcome space on any curry-feast spread. Super easy to make and incredibly tasty to eat. Thank you guys. So pleased to complete my 2025 apple bonanza postings with this delicious curry legend winner.

It's great to discover a new favourite - there's so many hidden gems just waiting to be found! We've loved seeing all of your wonderful creations from this year's fruit harvest!

5/5

This recipe is so easy and tasty that I make a giant batch and bottle it up. But I cook it slowly until it's much darker and stickier than the recipe says. It works super well with frozen mango too - just cook it for longer to evaporate the water - and if you make it with windfall apples, you get faux mango chutney that is almost indistinguishable from the original.

We're so pleased to hear that our mango chutney recipe has become a firm favourite for you! The idea of making it with windfall apples sounds wonderful too!

5/5

Fab curry, made mango chutney and carrot pickle too.

You can't go wrong with a combo of classic dishes! Great job, Catherine - it all looks fab!

5/5

Made this with chicken, one of our faves!!

We're pleased to hear that this fragrant methi chicken is a favourite for you!

5/5

Delicious way to use a glut of tomatoes.

We agree - a tomato chutney has to be one of the best ways to use up an excess of tomatoes! Great job!

5/5

Another delicious chutney from 'The Spicery' using the new chutney blends. Very quick to make and goes really well with any veg, meat or fish curry

This looks fantastic, Jackie - we're loving that sparkly spoon, it looks like a magic wand! Great to hear that you enjoyed this magical mango chutney!

5/5

Baltiful. Knocked up the balti with chicken and mushroom for my daughter and boyfriend. His father is a chef so I was under to pressure to perform. It was perfect and was a hit

We're so pleased to hear that the balti went down a treat! We bet it was just as good (if not better!) than the boyfriend's Dad could do ;)

5/5

Birthday girl Nikki with an incredible surprise celebratory Curry Legend feast in Tarragona, Spain!

Looks amazing - glad to hear you all enjoyed it so much, and hope she loves her present of the Curry Legend World Tour kit!

5/5

All of the dishes were from a mixture of the Curry Legend original book and the Curry Legend chef specials book and they were all incredible!! 10/10! Our guests were blown away!

This looks like a wonderful Curry Legend feast, Sara - super impressive! We're so pleased to hear how much your guests loved it!

5/5

A firm favourite for my husband and I. I can’t believe how much we use to pay for this with takeouts! Never again! So so good and just the right amount of heat! We love it with pilau rice and (my absolute favourite side) saag aloo.

We're so glad you've been converted to Curry Legend! Happy spicing!

5/5

A simple recipe for a quick delicious curry night.

Pleased to hear how much you enjoyed this simple yet delicious takra dhal!

5/5

An absolutely outstanding curry. Just had it for the second time and it's delicious. I used sea bass. A lovely rich flavour not overwhelmed by the coconut. Will definitely cook again.

We're so pleased to hear how much you loved the rich, tropical flavours in this wonderful curry from India's west coast - it looks delicious!

5/5

I made midweek curry chicken korma and mango chutney. Cooking for a young man with autism and sensory issues with food is challenging. He enjoyed the curry and the mango chutney was tasty.

This sounds like a fantastic feast, and looks wonderful in your Indian dishes! It's great to hear that this classic combination went down a treat!

5/5

We had a bit of an experiment with our leek bhajis. We did them in the air fryer. Even though they are slightly different we thought they tasted fab. I hope to perfect this technique so we can have them as easy snacks.

Great job adapting the recipe to make leek bhajis instead of onion - this looks and sounds fantastic! We'll have to give it a try ourselves!

5/5

Yummy Kung Pao chicken, tasty Broccoli with garlic, plus plain rice. A lovely dinner after a busy day out!

Looks like a great dinner, Sheila - we're so pleased to hear that this hit the spot after a busy day!

5/5

Classic. This dish is curry bliss. Just the right heat and packed with flavour. We had ours with Winter Veg Korma - that we already had in the freezer - and some lemon rice. I prepared it in the morning because we had a busy day and it was a real winner after being on the go. Delicious. Thank you guys

This looks like a fantastically rich and wonderful madras. We're so happy to hear that this hit the spot after a busy day!

5/5

It's been too long since I last made this, and it was even better than I remembered. I love the way the tomatoes seem to melt into the delicious, buttery sauce. It’s got a slight kick to it, too. It's a classic and utterly delicious. Thank you, Spicery!

You can't go wrong with butter chicken, it's a classic for a reason! So pleased to hear how much you loved this one, Robin!

Very quick delivery (26hrs after order) but disappointed by expanded polystyrene packing peanuts rather than a more environmentally responsible option

I bought the Curry Legend Box as a present and I liked it so much I have decided to keep it for myself and buy another one!!

5/5

Super speedy service. Well presented package.

5/5

It was a present for my boyfriend who thinks it is the best present ever...all we have eaten is curry since. The recipes are easy to follow and taste amazing couldn't recommend more highly!

5/5

Loved the cookbook, the illustrations and the instructions. Tried out one of the recipes and made a nan bread from scratch for the first time which was delicious. The selection of spice mixes made the food very straightforward to make.

5/5

Very good value, the gift was loved by the recipient. I was kicking myself for not having bought one and they had run out when I enquired.

5/5

The spicery deserve it ..

5/5

Great results, loved the curry as did my guest.

5/5

The book is really clear (lots of photos), engaging and well designed. The recipes are great as usual: we have the monthly subscription to curry spices and it is great to try something a little bit different, but on the same "theme"
