Reviews
This recipe is an adaptation so I don’t feel badly saying I also adapted it. I had most of the ingredients and decided to forge ahead. I didn’t have any regular rice so I used a combo of wild rice and quinoa with the stock and spices listed. I used Garam masala for my curry and used maybe half of the mayo/sour cream dressing. I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Holy yumminess! The raisins (I used regular ones) are such a nice compliment to the curry. It’s so tasty- surprised it hasn’t been review yet. A little time consuming with having to cook “rice” and then cook before adding rest but not complicated. Highly recommend!
