Bland-o-Riffic Chicken Curry!

[thoreau]

Okay - Chicken Curry.

I used this recipe - plus I added chunks of pineapple as it was simmering.

It looked delicious as I plated it up but past that? It was surprisingly bland-o-riffic! You could taste the basic ingredients - but it had no "THATS DAMN FINE CURRY" hotness or 'warmth.' I used a recipe I found on the internet and David suggests that it was perhaps "watered down" for western tastes and I need to find another recipe. What a delightful way of saying "Honey - thats the most bland curry-like chicken I have ever had. now what else is there to eat?"

LOL! Do any of you LJ cooks out there have tips on what I might do better?

He adored and has repeatedly complimented the crockpot jumbalaya I made yesterday for the dinner party - so I didn't strike completely out.
