Thanks, but I think I got it figured out! It did seem too dry, so I added some water right at the beginning -- but now I think it's a bit too liquidy, so I should have left well enough alone. Oh, well. It still smells fantastic! I have my dad and his wife arriving today for a week, so I thought I'd treat them to a curry dinner tonight. I also made a big pot of lentils. And I have poppadums with chutney to start with. And nan bread to go with the meal. So all I'll have to do tonight is the rice and make a quick raita. Oh, and I also made some heavenly mango ice cream yesterday which has been taunting me from the freezer ... "Eat me! Eat me!" I'm going to top it with crushed toasted pistachios.
