Cape Malay Curry Sauce image

While in South Africa, I was exposed to Malay cooking (it's an interesting history). This was one of the most notable things I tasted, and I think it is an excellent example of the blend of flavors that make this cuisine so unique. Try dousing chicken thighs with this sauce and baking (covered) in the oven. Serve over rice.
