Wow! You took me right back to my childhood, growing up in Durban. I ate my first bunny chow when I was 10 yrs old. My friend told me to collect as many empty Coke bottles as I could find and he was going to give me a surprise at our local Indian t-room in Greyville. I remember it was right next door to the W Daly cold-drink factory and about two blocks from where we lived. When we got there I thought we were going to buy some sweets. But, he handed over all the bottles we had collected (in those days we got a deposit for them) and asked for two quarter beans bunnies. I had no idea what a bunny was back then. But, when they were handed over a short time later, we went outside and sat on the pavement. We unwrapped the papers and I'll never forget, the smell was incredible. We both had little plastic bags with the grated carrot salad which we ate with the top plug of the bread. Let me just say, I wasn't expecting the fierce heat from that curry. But clearly, my friend had had one before because he told me to keep eating and I would be alright. I'm glad I listened because with tears streaming down my cheeks I ate the whole thing and it changed my life. Growing up in Durban, and on into adulthood bunny chow became my mainstay of late-night cuisine. There was no better meal to have after a night out and before bed in the early hours, than a bunny chow. I have many great memories of Overport and the many bunny shops that were open 24 hours a day. Many, many, years later my wife and I took a trip to Duban during our honeymoon. Can you guess what our first meal was? I know that India is known for its delicious food. But, there is, and always will be, something special about a curry eaten in Durban. Until you have tried it you will never know! Love you guys, and thank you for sharing your fabulous recipe with the World.
@@fahmeidahaffejee5778 Awesome! Such a small world we live in when we can share such an experience. My other favourite was (I'll probably get this wrong!), a kebab roti with cheese from a takeaway shop in Sparks Road, Overport. I think it's still there, but it's now called Al-Razzaaq. This was another 2:00AM stop off after a great night out. Thinking about this makes want to jump on a plane right now.
You are most welcome ❤️ sorry I've been slacking on my recipes...burnt my hand two weeks ago so was recovering, I'm back now with loads more recipes coming 😁❤️❤️
South African here, straight from Durban. Grown up eating curry all my life. Can confirm this is the absolute best recipe for a Lamb bunny. Absolutely delicious! 👌 I now live it Australia, just cooked this up. Reminds me so much of home. Perfect recipe!
Thank you, I have mentioned at the beginning and end of the video that the quantities are in the description of the video as well as the link for the full detailed step by step recipe
Thank you, I mentioned that part on my website eatmeerecipes.co.za It's actually what I like to do for a thicker gravy, I don't like bunny's with an overload of oil, rather thick gravy lol, sorry I didn't mention it in the video 😅
Ah thank you, homemade is the best! Please check on my website eatmeerecipes.co.za Use the search bar on the website and type carrot salad, the recipe will pop up 👍 you can also find the bread loaf there as well, it's best with the homemade bread 😁
Thank you for the recipe. It looks really yummy. I have one question. Is the cooking time for lamb different from the cooking time for mutton, or do both meats take the same time to cook?
I tried your recipe last month. I think I eventually succeeded in giving my friends here an Cape Town a real Durban curry experience. It was divine. Can’t fault it one bit♥️🤤. Thanks so so much. I’m cooking the curry again for tomorrow’s lunch.
@@snayezulu7251 thank you so much! So happy you are loving it 🤗 and thank you so much for taking the time to comment, really appreciate all the support, much love
Hi. Thank you for the recipe! I have a question. If I replace lamb with chicken (because lamb is not so easy to get in Supermarket) do I need to change anything. Would it still be 500g of boneless chicken?
You're most welcome, with chicken you could do about 6 boneless chicken breasts (you can estimate from there how much with other boneless chicken) or you could do a full whole chicken cut into pieces (that's usually about 500-800 grams)
@@derkleinemaulwurf7640 no problem, with the chicken you can add the potatoes with the boneless chicken (breasts) and you can add it about 10 minutes after adding whole chicken
I've mentioned at the beginning and the end of the video that the quantities are in the description and the link for the full step by step written recipe is also in the description 👍
Did u internationally use different cooking method to show yr views that u do a curry different to any other or is this yr normal cooking as to me iv never seen anyone cooking a curry following yrs.

Thank you for the recipe. It looks really yummy. I have one question. Is the cooking time for lamb different from the cooking time for mutton, or do both meats take the same time to cook?
You're welcome ☺️ lamb usually takes 25-30 mins and mutton takes about 45 mins depending.

Looks divine! Just curious why so much oil is used though?
Thanks, I don't use a lot of oil...2-3 tablespoons for curries, trust me that's less compared to most that make curries 😅
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
👍👍👍
Same as Indian mutton curry😮
