Taste Test: Flavour and Texture Review

There’s nothing better than a curry that focuses on taste over heat ♨️, as too much spice can ruin the dish for me. The curry is genuinely fantastic. I added a pinch of seasoning to make the flavour pop, but overall it was delicious.

The chicken 🍗 was tender and generous, and the edamame beans added a lovely contrast in texture. I savoured every last bite.

Absolutely. It’s a standout gluten free ready meal with no hidden risks. The flavour is rich, the ingredients are fresh, and it’s 100% coeliac-safe. A little pricey, but if you’re after something fuss-free and delicious, this is the one.
