Pre preparation

1.

Clean, wash and cut mutton into big cubes or pieces. Pick, wash and soak dals for 30 minutes. Chop onions, tomatoes, green chilly and green leafy vegetables. Cut all other vegetables into large pieces. Prepare ginger and garlic paste.

Method

Mix together, dals, vegetables, greens, ginger-garlic paste, green chilly, turmeric and half the onions in a heavy bottom degchi. Add sufficient water and cook till mutton and dals are almost done.

Add tomatoes and salt. Replenish water if required and continue cooking till mutton and dals are fully done.

Remove from flame. Puree the remaining mixture of dals, vegetables and greens.

Grind red chillies, cumin and grated dry coconut to a fine paste.

Heat fat. Fry remaining onions till golden brown. Add ground paste (step 5), parsi sambar masala, garam masala, parsi dhan-jeera powder (opt) and pickle masala (opt).

Add puree of dals, cooked mutton pieces and seasonings.

Remove from flame. Add lemon juice. If too thick, add mutton stock or water. Serve hot with brown rice.

NOTE:

The word ‘dhanshak’ means combination of ‘dhan’ – that is rice and pulses and ‘shaak’ that is – vegetables. The preparation mentioned above is served with ‘brown rice’ and together it is called ‘dhanshaak’.

Dhanshaak is mostly prepared during mourning and it is not a festival dish.
