I know the list of ingredients is long, but a lot of this is stuff that will help you generally if it's part of your storecupboard-stash. If you don't want to go in for specialist shopping at all (I love it, and now can indulge myself online, too), then replace the tiny dried shrimp with about 100g of small frozen (thaw them first) prawns. Sherry could be used instead of the Chinese cooking wine, though I tell you that I get this very easily from my local supermarket.

Which brand of curry powder do you recommend? I use Ship Madras curry, but it did not have much flavor. I am based in the USA so I would like to be able to find it here.

Is this recipe OK to half for just 2 people?

Loved it. I used regular curry powder. Would definitely have again.
