This recipe, as written, is dry and bland, which is probably why most of the reviewers made their own changes including significantly more seasoning and more liquid. I did the same, and after doubling the garlic and spices (I used cummin instead of cloves)and adding 6 ounces of vegetable broth, it is OK but not great. I won't make it again.

Great recipe. However, it lacks enough spice as directed. Next time I will add much more "Indian" spices like cumin, corriander, tumeric, et al. I did saute the cauliflower instead of boiling which left it nicely crisp tender. A keeper.

Great foundation of a recipe and like others I added to the ingredients. Two cans of tomatoes, LOTS more curry, LOTS of cumin, extra garlic, a vegetable bouillion cube and the best ingredient of all - one can of lite coconut milk. I also used olive oil instead of vegetable oil and added the raw cauliflower in with the carrots, onions and garlic allowing the nutritional value to stay in the pot - and to make it easier with just one pot. My 4 year old is enjoying the meal and can't get enough of it! Looking forward to sharing it with friends! Yummy!!

Yummy and unique, I doubled the amount of garlic and added extra ginger root because I'm a big fan of those flavors. Contrary to what others said I did not think I needed to any extra liquid. Also I used 1 1/2TBSP Green Curry Paste because I did not own powder.

Good recipe, however I omitted the cloves, and replaced the curry powder with almost 2 TBSP of curry paste. The sauce was very flavoful and needed just a little salt. Also, since previous reviews mentioned that there wasn't enough sauce, I added a bit of the water from the chickpea can.

We all enjoyed this recipe. Only a 4 because I did make modifications. I added another can of tomatoes because there wasn't much sauce. I also added Garam Masala (probably 2t) and cumin (1 1/2t) and not cloves.

I looked at the rating and expected better. I didn't have the cloves, but I found this to be rather bland. I doubled up on the curry and I think that helped, but it needs a little more kick to it.

I used cumin instead of curry. We thought this was a great, colorful vegetarian meal. Next time, we will probably add more of each, the cumin and fresh ginger.

The whole family enjoyed this dish. I accompanied it with "carrot rice." Both were delicious. I increased the amount of spices used and used cumin instead of cloves.

YUM YUM! If you like curry at all, this recipe is one you'll love. I did add extra curry powder and since I like my curry saucy, I also added two cups of crushed tomatoes along with the diced tomatoes. I used two bags of frozen cauliflower, which cut out one whole step, as I just put the frozen cauliflower into the pan and let them steam until heated through. The fresh gingerroot cannot be compared with using powdered. This is a healthy, satisfying, and easy recipe. A winner!

This is a very tasty recipe once I adjusted the seasoning to my taste. Like the other reviewers, I also had to add more liquid. Otherwise a good recipe with lots of potential.

This was pretty good. I agree with the review, there wasn't enough sauce for the rice. I added 1/2 a can of tomato paste, and spiced it up a bit.

This was OK, but was a little bland for my test, and there wasn't much liquid for the rice. I ended up adding about 1/2 cup of chicken broth (could easily use veggie broth instead), an extra teaspoon of curry powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala at the end.
