Hi Aarthi,
Your recipes are always so tasty. I've tried many of them like Red Chicken curry, butter chicken etc. but haven't posted the comments. I did tried the above recipe and turned out so good as usual.
One doubt:
Isn't Kafir Lime called as "Kolumichai" in tamil? Also, I think narthangai is called as "Citron or Bitter Orange".
Aarthi
Glad you tried and liked it. both are same.
