BO-KAAP CAPE MALAY KERRIE - SOUTH AFRICAN CAPE MALAY CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot or saucepan.
• Over high heat, fry the onions and garlic, stirring continuously. Add the ginger, curry powder and all the spices and continue stirring for a minute. Season to taste with pepper and add the salt.

• Serve this curry with yellow rice and a variety of sambals and atjars.
