I love Indian food and this is similar to some of their fancy dishes. The ingredients make it a healthy choice if on a diet. It's low fat, with chicken, fruits and healthy nuts. Enjoy!

I just had to try this one! I love raisins and the combination of that and the red onions and celery sounded great. It is delicious! The flavors are subtle and I think it will taste even better tomorrow. (I did have to add a bit of water to simmer it...more
