had this for dinner tonight and it was very good. My husband loved it and we will have this again. My 10 year old even liked it:)

I wouldn't serve this as a main dish, but as a side dish, it's a nice start. I added 1/2 cup of lentils along with some extra liquid. In addition, I added 1 tbsp each of ginger and garlic, more curry, and skipped the allspice. I love the idea of barley instead of rice. Thanks for the inspiration!

This is a great side-dish alternative to rice or potatoes. I added more curry and cinnamon for a bit more spicy flavor. The raisins add just the right touch of sweetness. The barley does not get soft and mushy but retains a little crunchiness. Perfect. This one is a keeper for me.

This was pretty good, but while cooking it I decided to add some more curry and some cinnamon. Then I added in the raisins and nuts while it was still cooking. My son on the other hand didn't care for it--I guess it's not really a kid thing....

Absolutely delicious! I doubled the amount of curry, but otherwise this had the perfect combination of spices!

excellent and so simple! Afraid that it wouldn't be enough curry flavor,so I added one tsp. Perfect. Also didn't have pearl barley and pot barley worked great. Thank you
