I can get a nice sweet taste with condensed milk, but cant make up my mind up if the sour taste in dansak should come from:
a) lemon rind
b) lemon juice
c) tamerind (tried this didn't like it)
d) worcester sauce
e) vinegar
f) fenugreek
if anyone has experimented with these ingredients i would love to know what you think might work best in a chicken dansak? cheers DD

Hi Derek Dansak, I usually use one and a half tablespoons of both sugar and lemon juice to a recipe. Obviously we don't all have the same taste buds, so, I recommend that you play around with the amounts until you get it to your liking. Hope this helps CQ

a) lemon rind highly unlikely
b) lemon juice most probably - bottled
c) tamerind (tried this didn't like it) quite possibly - jar
d) worcester sauce most unlikely - is it sour?
e) vinegar quite possibly
f) fenugreek nah, it aint sour
Condensed milk in a dhansak? :-\
Try using sugar ;)

hi tamala
i would say that they would probably use lemon juice or a lemon type dressing so i would put the jif bottle away maybe use either fresh lemon squeezed or find a lemon dressing i know KTC make one and i have seen iceland used to do one. most kekab shops have the long clear bottles of it. try asking if yiu can have a bottle or where they get it from.
