Thanks for the recipe and the easy-to-follow video instructions, which I followed. The only change I made was to substitute the chicken for some good quality goat meat. Turned out super-delicious! ❤

Happy 2024 Sharmiss 🎉,
I love mixed ingredient curry.
UK dansak didn't really fit my bill, but this recipe does. No cream. Can't wait to try.
Best wishes to you and family for new year.

[@SharMissCooking]

Thank you Waz. Happy 2024. Yes, give it a try. Let me know for any questions. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Waxed_Ape]

Quick question. In several of your videos you recommend using mustard oil. I went to buy some and my options were cold pressed vs I guess regular. Do you recommend one over the other?

[@SharMissCooking]

Cold press is definitely better\healthier. That's what I use. They may be slightly more pungent, but as long as you heat them up properly to smoking point, it should be fine. Don't overheat them too. 🙂❤️❤️
