This is an incredibly flavorful stew, and one of my fav Pillsbury recipes -- I've made this at least a dozen times. I personally prefer using chunky peanut butter (& I'll confess, I always add a little more than called for). The combination of different flavors is phenomenal. Highly recommend!

I made this recipe for my somewhat picky family and they loved it!! I substituted canned sweet potatoes for fresh ones and ginger from the spice cabinet and used my own canned tomatoes. Will definately make this one again!!

This is a great recipe! It is easy to make using (most) ingredients that you will probably have at home. I thought the name if the recipe was kind of misleading though...it was more of an Indian Curry flavor. The red pepper flakes give it just the right amount of "kick"...but easily adjusted to your taste. Be sure to serve it with a nice loaf of bread so you can get all of the flavors from the sauce! Definitely will make this one again!
