I increased the curry to 1/2 T and decreased the oil (instead of butter) and flour to 1/4 cup each. This was for half a recipe. I would decrease them to 1/8 cup each next time. Used 2 cups brown rice even though it was half the recipe and that seemed about right; could even use more. It needed salt in addition to the seasoned salt. Even though I made several changes, I think it's a good recipe and would make it again. My husband wanted even more curry!

I'm confused?? The lighter version has more calories per serving. How is it lighter?? Reducing the fat is great, but it all comes down to calories when losing weight.
