ML> Sri Lankan Chicken Curry ... If you are using store bought
ML> curry powder, please make sure that the mixture has a
ML> combination of at least some of the spices of the Sri Lankan
ML> curry powder. AVOID curry powders that have turmeric, garlic
ML> powder, onion powder as main ingredients because THESE ARE
NOT curry powders.
That made me curious so I checked my MM and came up with this:
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
