Cape Malay Beef curry recipe

Published

on

Cape Malay curry is known for combining sweet and savory flavors–using sweet spices like cinnamon and ginger, dried fruit (especially dried apricots), and savory seasonings like garlic and onions. Though usually served with rice, this beef stew is also great over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.

1 ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 ½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoon ground coriander
1 ½ teaspoon chilli powder
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons canola oil

1 ½ tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
2 bay leaves
1 garlic clove, minced
1 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 ¼ cups less-sodium beef broth
1 cup water
1 cup chopped green bell pepper (about 1 medium)
⅓ cup chopped dried apricots
⅓ cup apricot spread (such as Polaner All Fruit)
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
¼ cup low-fat buttermilk
