South African Malay Curry image

My mother asked me to make this recipe for her and I was surprised at how good it was. My neighbor smelled it and asked what I was making, and loved it too. Serve with traditional curry garnishes such as chutney, peanuts, sliced bananas, and dates. I served over brown rice.

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
2 pounds cubed lamb stew meat
2 cups beef broth
½ pound eggplant, cubed
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
1 cup diced dried apricots, soaked in warm water

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pot over high heat. Fry onions and garlic in the hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder, ginger, turmeric, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, and cloves; continue stirring for 1 minute.
