BBC god food website has some very easy recipes - chicken biryiani is very good and you could use prawns instead - just add them later than the chicken. Just cook some spinach in butter, puree it and stir in if you are wanting to us spinach

Isn't Garam Masala another term for Curry Powder...I have the Madhur Jaffrey cookbook and find that really good...
