CHICKEN MADRAS

QuoteIngredients:

- 300g skinless chicken thigh and leg (cut into approximately 1 inch cubes : I had already used all the breast)
- 75 ml CA's spiced oil
- 2 tsp garlic/ginger pur

Just made a dansak with KK in place of the called for madras curry powder, not bad but not great, would I be better off making a spice mix like BE's and using KK instead of curry powder.

I've never used KK but from the ingredient list it looks like another generic curry powder along the lines of a madras curry powder so yes I'd use it as the curry powder in a mix powder like BE's (which I do like).

It may be of course that the whole dhansak recipe is not to your liking and the use of mix powder rather than the KK may not improve matters.

the last time I used the recipe with Schwartz curry powder and it was very good, I'll knock up the BE mix with KK and use it next time and see how it goes. Or would I be better off using Rajah madras curry powder.

Well you've got the KK so probably better to try it in a mix powder with the same recipe or you'll never know whether it's the problem or not. You can always try Rajah next time if it turns out pants.
