Guest guest Posted November 3, 2001 Report Share Posted November 3, 2001 Practically chaunce means you put ghee/oil in your pot/pan, heat it up and then add the spices in in a correct sequence, this is called "doing the chaunce". The orthodox term is masala as far as I know. I guess the term is not universally known, since you can't find it through an internet search-engine, and Merriam-Webster does not recognize the term. Even some cooking dictionaries I checked didn't know the term. I'd suggest some prominent hippy cook in the 60's ISKCON called it "sauce" in lack of proper terminology, and eventually the fancy french-sounding "chaunce" (chauncé?) evolved in the Hare Krishna cuisines. > Dear prabhus and matajis, > > Please acccept my humble dandavats.
