4. I hate turmeric and fenugreek seeds

so I use a red curry powder (McCormick I think) that I actually like. I mostly follow this recipe: http://caribbeanpot.com/ultimate-curry-chicken/ Except when you add the 1.5 cups water, about 1/2-3/4 cup of that is coconut milk. I also use an entire habanero for 2 leg quarters. I'm not sure what that 1/4 habanero for 3 lbs of chicken is about! Except for those who get heartburn easily, I understand cutting back on the heat.
