I also don't understand why this is registering as my 1st post. I've put up loads and am a very seasoned BIR follower/practicioner!!!!

I was very impressed with this recipe. It was very easy to make and perfectly combined the "sweet/sour taste.
Dansak's are my 1st choice of curry. I like the blend of spice/heat/sweet/sour!
I changed a few things although they weren't alterations, they were for convenience, and I had my fingers crossed that it worked out.
I used the base recipe that was provided by the youtube link that someone put up a while ago, just search for dipuraja1 on you tube.
The masala mix I left out entirely, I just put in a teaspoon of Garam Masala near the end.
I also didn't use the method for the dhal. I have made that particular recipe countless times for making Tarkha Dhal and it is absolutely brilliant, and certainly has the taste! It is however a bit long winded if you just want to add it to a curry, so I just boiled up a few lentils.
I can guarantee that this is the best Dansak recipe on here! Many, many thanks CA!!!!!!!
