My only suggestion would be to make less use of chicken breast. There are tastier parts of chicken like chicken thigh and leg. Sauces tend to be too homogenised. Real chicken curry is more fea... See more

Absolute tasteless. Cheap produce

Found this on the Internet raving reviews. Absolutely disappointing, bland no taste goan chicken curry couldn’t even eat it, even my wife said exactly the same as we both started the same time. What a waste of £70. Don’t know what I’m going to do with the other ones we hade,we had one of them 2 weeks ago and it was disappointing as well. I left a review until I tried another one just in case it was a one off certainly wouldn’t be going back cheap chicken cheap ingredients. These company starts off good and then go downhill buying cheap produce. I would give it a zero star if I could,,,,,, don’t waste your money, go elsewhere,,,,,,,

Delicious!!

These curries are wonderful - really tasty and without any of the 'nasties' that some companies add.
They taste authentic, healthy and delicious. Ordering is easy and delivery on time. I'm very happy to support a local business too.
