Ingredients:
1 kg minced lamb
125ml milk
1 thick slice of white bread, crust removed and soaked in milk
2 roughly chopped onions butter
Salt
1 tablespoon of curry powder (mix the hot and the Cape Malay
versions for a good flavour)
1 chili, finely chopped (optional and only if you like your food
quite hot)
½ cup vinegar
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
1 teaspoon of brown sugar
1 tablespoon of chutney
8 -10 crushed almonds (optional)
3 eggs
1 clove of garlic, crushed and finely chopped
6 bay leaves
1 orange, sliced in wheels
1 lemon, sliced in wheels
Oil for cooking
Instructions on how to make it:
Heat the oil in frying pan and
add the garlic, onion and curry power. Cook over medium heat for
three minutes, then add the mince meat. Fry until the meat is
almost done, then using your hands, squeeze the milk from the
bread. Discard the milk and add the bread, vinegar, lemon juice,
sugar and chutney to the mince. Fry for a minute or so and then
remove from heat.
Take a pie dish and place three bay leaves, two wheels of orange
and two wheels of lemon at the bottom. Now scoop the mince
mixture into the dish. Decorate the sides of the dish with the
rest of the lemon and orange wheels, wedging them between the
mince and the sides of the dish so that only a third protrudes.
If you are using almonds, push them into the mince. Beat the
eggs and 125ml milk, and pour over the meat. Put three bay
leaves on top of dish. Place the dish uncovered in the oven and
cook for about 30 minutes at 160 deg Celsius.
Serve with a plain green salad or chopped tomato and onion,
sprinkled with a little vinegar. Make sure you have some chutney
near at hand. Serve piping hot with the yellow rice.
