Boxing Day Leftovers curry.
So you have eaten too much, drunk too much the day before and really don't feel like a long and complicated recipe for Boxing day. Well that is where we have come to your rescue.
This recipe is simple, quick and pain free.
Soak the dried fruit in a jug of boiling water for 20 minutes.
Over a low/medium heat, warm the butter and oil to a large heavy bottomed pan that has a lid. Add the onions, stir around and then cover with the lid. Cook gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the onions are soft but not coloured. Add the peppers and cook for a further 3 - 5 minutes.
Drain the fruit and discard the water. Put the fruit in the pan with the onions and peppers.
Add the spices, meat and a tablespoon of the coconut milk and stir well. Cover and leave to cook 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and the remainder of the coconut milk.
Combine well and cook at a gentle bubble for 5 minutes.
Turn the curry down to a gentle simmer with the lid off for 30 minutes.
Stir occasionally allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Done!
