I tried this with thighs on the bone but they weren’t quite cooked at the end of the normal time. How much time should I add or should I stick to breast meat? There’s probably already an answer somewhere on the app so sorry for being a slacker!

no this recipe is for meat off the bone- the recipe for on bone would be a good 45 min-1hr low heat cook

Dhansak is my go to curry, especially when I try a new restaurant. Had it cooked for me by a Parsee family a long time ago and fell in love with it. This is a great recipe. Great taste. I’d probably use slightly more chilli powder next time, but a lovely dish with a couple of Paratha

Is the frozen garlic and ginger instead of the fresh ones or do I use both?
