| Mark writes: I picked this soup because its very easy to make, to bad it was horribe, this soup had no flavor what so ever and I only used 4 cups of water, this recipe calls for six, you might as well have a glass of warm water, to add flavor to this soup your talking about adding salt that might put you in a stroke zone, pass on this soup you'll only be wasteing your money and your time, Posted on 09 Jul 2008, 16:28 ET |

| EZ writes: Its ok for a fake whitey version, but doesn't recapitulate the full flavor of the real indian stuff. If 5 cloves of garlic in 8 cups of water, boiled for a while, is a lot of spice to you then maybe you shouldn't move to india Posted on 20 Feb 2011, 20:30 ET |
