      Thanks again. When I taught myself to cook aged 18, I was vegetarian (ugh) and dals from scratch were one of the first things I learnt. Afterwards I learnt a load of Indian dishes, including chutnies and pickles. They’ve all fallen out of rotation over the years as I taught myself other styles and cuisines. I’m now inspired to make a comeback.

        She has about 15 dals on there, and for a midweek recipe there is not a lot better in terms of ease:price:nutrition:taste

            King prawns in a Delhi style sauce. Pretty darn good…

                It’s a really tasty sauce. Ended up a bit salty because I didn’t adjust to accomodate the prawns but fekk it.

                                  I would go lighter on the salt than the recipe calls for…..

                                    Thank you for that. I tend to have a heavy hand with salt too.
