2 cloves of Garlic (thinly diced)
½ kg of meat (cut into pieces)
Oil for frying

In a cooking pot, fry the onions and garlic until soft.
Add the meat and cook until brown.
Next, add in the tomatoes, carrots, green capsicum, green bananas, salt and cayenne pepper.
Stir and cover.
Cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes and capsicum are soft (keep checking and stirring to avoid any burning)
Next, add in water, just enough to cover the matoke. Cook for another 10 minutes until the bananas are tender but not mushy and the sauce is thickened a little.
At this point you can do a taste test and adjust your seasoning ( salt and pepper) if necessary. Switch off fire.
The final step, take your coriander/dhania and stir into the ready matoke ya nyama.

Bobotie (Serves 6-8)
2 thick slices of stale white bread
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
1/4 c. butter
2 large onions, chopped
1 3/4 lb. ground beef (sirloin apparently works best)
3 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tsp. garam masala
1 tsp. tumeric
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. ground coriander
3 cloves & 5 allspice (I ground these up by hand with the peppercorns)
1/2 tsp. peppercorns
1/2 c. golden raisins (dark ones are OK too)
1/4 c. sliced almonds
2 tbsp. chutney**
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 bay leaves (or 6-8 lemon leaves)
1 c. milk
2 eggs, beaten
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9″x13″ pan. Soak the bread in the milk then squeeze it out, adding the squeezed-out milk back into the original cup; if you now have less than a whole cup, top it up. Add the eggs and whisk just until mixed.
2. Saute the onions in the vegetable oil over medium heat until they start to turn translucent. Add the spices (not the bay leaves), nuts, chutney, and raisins, and cook for about 30 seconds. Add the meat and bread and cook, stirring, for a minute or two just until the beef starts to brown.
3. Turn the meat into the prepared pan, place the bay leaves on top, and pour the egg-milk mixture over it. Bake for 30 minutes until the custard on top has set.
**South African chutney is sweeter than Indian; you can fudge it by combining duck sauce and apricot jam.

1/4 c. (60 ml) brandy
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Butter an 8″ square pan or 9″ pie pan. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.

3. Pour into the prepared pan and bake covered loosely with foil for 45-60 minutes.
