South Africans love curries – in any shape, form and strength. Curries are considered part of the rainbow of dishes in South African cuisine and synonymous with winter. I developed this recipe many years ago for The AMC Book and it remains my go-to curry recipe.
Curries can be served with a range of side dishes and accompaniments. From just rice to spooning it into a roti, on naan bread and topped with a fresh salsa or a dollop of plain yoghurt to soften the spicy flavours of a curry. Fresh coriander leaves and a homemade sambal are fabulous with all of these options and complements the spices beautifully. Cook up many a curry this winter.
