  1. I regret making this. i made this (and doubled the recipe b/c that's how much my frozen chuck roast weighed) and seriously regret it. The spices are overpowering compared to every other Indian dish I've ever eaten (restaurant or SE. Indian chefy roommate). And there was waaaaay too much liquid. I cooked it 3x as long as suggested to get the connective tissue to break down and still had to add double the potatoes, a bunch of carrots and a full head of cabbage to equal the amount of cooked down liquid. Still too freekin' spicy (not too hot, just over-spided). And can we talk about how the only salt called for is a pinch in the onions at the beginning and then "to taste" at the end?!?!? If you don't properly season your dish, ESPECIALLY with meat, during cooking, you will never be able to add enough salt to get it to taste right. This was somehow overspiced, and yet lacked taste (probably due to the lack of proper salting). The star anise is overpowering and I'm one of those people who thinks curry leaves smell like kerosene or diesal exhaust (it's like cilantro), yet I used both b/c I thought it would balance out in the end. What a waste of food and now I have a metric ton of it

  2. What kind of wok is that? It's either brand new or not carbon steel. I can't decide which.

    And the chicken is sticking to it. Notice how the chicken doesn't stick to the wok when the woman cooks.

    And no sesame oil? I thought that was fundamental.
