Comments: (Recipe from the Vegetarian Times~ I highly recommend this book to those in Phase I. You can add meat to most recipes and it has some great stuff!!!!)

It says to serve with rice or bread. You can serve it with brown rice in Phase II. I usually just eat it by itself with some chicken, and it is great! The spices can be expensive. I like to use pepper and garlic. I happen to have all the spices because I cook Indian food all of the time, but the only required items are ginger and chili powder. You can use oregano or basil instead of coriander. Turmeric makes it taste smooth, but isn’t necessary.
