Followed this recipe to the letter. It produced the best dhansak I've ever tasted, bar none. Better than any restaurant or takeaway I've been to. Many thanks, Chef Din!
having moved to Australia 16 years ago,I have missed a good curry.Having found your channel I now have the best curries at my fingertips.Many thanks chef I will my friends to subscribe.This dhansak was superb
Another delicious recipe tasted better than my usual takeaway. Bit heavy on the chilli as mine is extra hot chilli powder so halved it. Every recipe I've tried has been excellent 👍👍one pot Ceylon would be good to try hint hint 👍👍
It’s too hot for us to eat’! But follow these instructions and you’re have a delicious tasting hot Ceylon!! Make my one chicken madras, to this when you’re adding the spices add 3x chilly powder amount , 1/2 tin of coconut milk and 1/2 cup coconut nut powder! Let me know if you enjoy!!
Another great vid. Is this close to how you prepared it in the restaurant? Maybe you would have pre-cooked the chicken in the restaurant, then added it at a later stage. Fantastic - many thanks.
This is my one pot version of a restaurant style curry which I have created to bypass making the base gravy, precooked chicken to make it easier for you to make at home!!
Tamarind with make it more sour! The dish the Dansak was take from was Dal gosht this dish was just meat cooked with lentils! So if you can’t eat sugar the leave it out and reduce the lemon juice! All my recipe you can adapt for your taste!! Enjoy
Thank you very much for your reply, I have been trying to master the Dansak for years. I will give your version a shot and see how it goes. I love the taste, and the sweet and sour. I just can’t get it right at home.
@@zamskin29 if you follow this recipe you will get a BIR Dansak as it should be , over the years chefs have ruined this simple recipe by adding all sorts of of things eg pineapple!! Let me know how you get one and if you enjoy it!
Hi chef din i made your dansak recipe yesterday was really tasty didn't use as much chilli powder and used Kashmiri powder and used chicken thighs. Where is your apartment that you rent if its in Los cristianos would be interested in renting for march next year if possible. Went there in march lovely and warm compared to portsmouth England. Scott
Hi Scott I’m glad you enjoyed the Dansak ! My apartment is in Roque Del conde in Adeje the posh part! Lol ,about 10 minutes drive to los Cristanos, near everything but very quite area! With great views of the Atlantic Ocean and Mountain View’s! Was the booking for you and your wife?
@@scotthusband971 for two I would normally charge 140 euro per night plus a cleaning fee 75 euro, but i would give you a discount and charge 750 euros for the week! The apartment is very comfortable and luxurious, so let me know if you wish to book!
Tamarind is sour, so you can use instead of lemon juice to give your sourness! Sugar is needed to give your sweetness to the dish! But if you can’t eat sugar then leave it out!
For my personal taste, I do not like braising chicken breasts in liquid for 15-20+ minutes. Chicken breasts are low fat and can easily overcook and dry out. Whenever I make curries out of chicken breasts, I cook the chicken first and remove them from the pan when they are almost cooked through but not quite finished cooking. After that, I would work on the sauce and after the sauce is done and almost ready to serve, I would add the chicken back into the sauce to heat through and finish the cooking process. This helps prevent the chicken breasts from overcooking and drying out.
You should Never comment until you have cooked my recipe? My chicken is very moist , I am a professional chef cooking for the public over 40 years , not an amateurs you see on TH-cam!
Are you saying that a pathia and dhansak are basically the same recipe except for the lentils? Because it seems you used the same videos for both recipes.
Followed this recipe to the letter.

@@ChefDin Great. Thank you. It looks very tasty, as do all of your recipes.
Lamb damask is my favourite. Back in the 80’s when it all ticked off…i remember my local restaurant making the best…but it must include pineapple….
Then you haven’t tasted mine!I have a chicken Dansak recipe just replace chicken with lamb, and throw in some pineapple!! Enjoy
Hi Chef Din, can you use Tamarind instead of the sugar? 😊 thanks for the recipe.

I definitely will 😊 thank you so much for your advice 🍛
Onion Seed not in ingredient list. How long did you reduce it for to end up with the thick sauce in the final images?
Until you get to your desired consistency!
@@ChefDin It was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the dish. The sweet and sour of the sugar and lemon juice is perfect.
@@gdlivo3353 perfect 👍
Looks beautiful, my mouth is watering.
Hi din,I like your chicken korma one pot I would like to make this recipe for 15 people. What shall I do?
The recipe is 4 person so just make 4 lots , I’m sure there won’t be any leftovers!! Enjoy
Make in two pots 2 lots in each pot!
The same with the chicken tikka masala want to make it for 15 people for my family. Thank you
Keen to give this a go. However as I'm diabetic can you suggest an alternative to the sugar, please?
Have without the sugar and lemon juice , then you have a dhal ghost, which is a traditional curry and very nice!!
@@ChefDin many thanks

How (when) would you add protein other than chicken - eg vegetables, prawns, etc?
Watch the video it’s self explanatory!!
can i use tamarind instead of sugar?

That’s right , remember BIR curries are created to make all different curries quickly specially if you are a busy restaurant and takeaway !
