I knocked up a Dhansak for dinner tonight served with pilau rice and mushroom bhaji.

Nice rice ! (Which is not intended to reflect badly on the other two dishes; I simply thought that the rice was particularly worth singling out for praise).

Nice. It seems to me the key to the dish is seasoning the lentils right when you precook them. It's easy to kill a dhansak when you add unseasoned precooked lentils. I've done it!

Looks nice, London.

I've never made a Dhansak, but I fancy trying it having seen yours. Any chance of posting a recipe?

And, as Phil said, that rice does look spot on

The rice is CA's Pilau rice as posted on this forum. The Dhansak is Chewy's recipe which has a video on Vimeo.
