Family customs can evolve and change but the rituals remain integral to our values and memories. Growing up we ate different dishes on Sunday...but we always had a large hot meal at 1pm. "Dinner" on Sunday was more of a light meal, snack. I miss that practice and this article had me thinking I might bring back a main meal on Sunday afternoon. Thank you, I did not know what Dhansak was but it sounded delicious.

My local Indian restaurant/takeaway (Tandoori Heritage in Wellington - best Indian restaurant I've ever been to) has Dhansak on the menu so I have had it a number of times. It's delicious. I had no idea it was such a culturally significant dish, so fantastic to hear the story. I shall appreciate it a lot more from now on.

This is a new dish to me, I had never heard of it. It looks so tasty! And the family Sunday custom going along with it just so wonderful.
