    Have made this twice now and I like it great flavour, I found using chuck stake was the best.  A variant instead of the potatoes if you have a TM 5 use the mash potatoe recipe on the chip tastes good too.

    It seems there is a great variation in what people think is a massaman. tmrc_emoticons.) All good, each to their own and thanks to those who try this. Mscruse do you think it needs more seasoning? How do you think it lacks flavour?

    Unfortunately we thought this recipe lacked flavor, and it's certainly no a Massaman  tmrc_emoticons.(

    We love Massaman Curry and loved this recipe!  Easy to prepare and I was so excited about making my own curry paste. The aromas in the kitchen were amazing! tmrc_emoticons.)

    this is a family fav

    i make the paste in the Thermomix and cook it all together in the slow cooker.

    Sorry guys! This was one of my early recipes. I will have to have another go at it and tweak the instructions. I hadn't tried nada man before so I had nothing to compare it to but this was converted from a Masterchef recipe. I think it's tasty but perhaps I need more experience in Massamans.

    Massaman is my favourite Thai dish and I have yet to find a good recipe - unfortunatley this tasted nothing like Massaman

    I love Massaman Curry but have never made it before.  I was not 100 percent sure on how I was to perepare the meat or the potatos.  It would be great to have a bit more direction in this recipe.
