This one pot curry rice dish is not only delicious but simple to prepare. With less than 30 minutes of cooking time, dinner is ready in a snap too. I served it with mango chutney(found in the international isle alongside other Indian sauces) because the juxtaposition of sweetness on the curry is amazing.
