I used spicy green chili instead of the red chili powder, and chicken masala in lieu of garam masala.

The curry was spicy and great with brown rice.

I am currently reading the Indian novel, "mai silently mother' by Geethanjali Shree. Its about the mother of the household who sacrifices all her wishes and needs for the happiness of the household. She is constantly cooking for her in-laws, husband and children; according to each of their tastes and fancy. Her children, as they grow up, want her to escape the burden. Let me read and see what they do.
