So nice!

5 stars

My first meal I ate from the plastic containers, to save on washing up, I live alone, and, to my surprise, it was very enjoyable. My second meal ( it's not hot curry ) I put the rice in a dish and put the chicken and sauce on top.Thre is plenty of chicken but a little more sauce would have helped but I am being picky. With a couple of glasses of chardenay it was a delightful meal. Well done Tesco I will order again.

A consistent TRIUMPH!

5 stars

Tesco range of Indian ready-meals gives us an ample serving of authentic Indian food, in the comfort of our own home. Like having a quality Indian takeaway restaurant within 7 minutes' delivery ........ but for a fraction of the price! The Chicken Jalfrezi is an outstanding example of this excellence ...... hot, spicy, smooth and delicious!

Delicious and more-ish!

4 stars

I buy this all the time; it's the best ready-meal curry I've eaten, from any supermarket. The chicken is in big chunks, it's tasty and not rubbery. The spicing [ about medium] is about right for me.Lots of tomatoes and onions in the sauce. The rice is delicious, M&S could learn a lot [their ready-meal curries have horrible rice.] And it's fairly low-fat as well.Four stars not five, because it would help if I could cook it from frozen. I just worry that Tesco will change the recipe [they keep doing that!] so Tesco please - it ain't broke, don't fix it! It's brilliant.

When I fancy a curry this is my go to option! Grea

5 stars

When I fancy a curry this is my go to option! Great flavour, much better than I can make myself. Decent chunks of chicken in it too

Would recommend

5 stars

A far superior curry ready meal to any other I have tried. Especially to the Tesco Finest range of curries which are just disgusting.

Not spicy but good meal

4 stars

Every time I go to buy this there’s 1 left. It’s not spicy at all but it tastes good. Chicken and rice ratio is great and it’s flavoursome.

Tasteless

1 stars

This was just awful tasteless considering it had 3 chillies on the packaging.I will not be buying this product again

Good curry and rice

4 stars

Not sure why negative reviews. This is better than some takeaway curries. Tasty, quick and easy. Good for the price.
