Mother in Law Curry

The Cape Malay kitchens of the Bo-Kaap area in Cape town use two spice blends known as father or mother-in-law masala.

The mother-in-law blend is the slightly hotter one and this is our homage to the resulting Cape Malay curry that’s very simple, but delicious enough to serve to your own mother-in-law!

To make this recipe, you'll need:

HALDI BLEND: 2 tsp

JEERA BLEND: tsp

METHI BLEND: 2 tsp

MIRCHI BLEND: 5 tsp

We had a delicious mother in law curry with easy veg. I must admit I only went to 3 tsp of mirchi because I really do believe that is my personal maximum for full enjoyment. I love that this dish includes potatoes and the richness of the sauce. A really great meal which we will definitely be having again. Thank you guys.
