Durban Family Recipes

If you feel like having a quick snack or entertaining guests, this is the recipe for you. Proceed with caution as you're going to get addicted to making this all the time!

The absolute pro to this recipe is that it's inexpensive because you just use ingredients that you have in the pantry.

Puri and Patha pair well together, but you can eat them with whatever curry you like too. Enjoy :)

Note: It's okay to use milk if you don't have yoghurt or maas.

My son’s favourite dish is Kebab Chutney with roti. He’s since decided to become a vegetarian which inspired me to make this dish using the same ingredients with green bananas instead of meat.

I was asked by my daughter-in-law if I could make Chilli Con Carne and I said yes, it is actually beans and mince with various vegetables. I decided to make it using the vegetables that I had, so please try it and add veggies of your choice. 😊

I bought a bunch of beetroot and didn't want the leaves to go to waste. I decided to add it to my moong dholl. Try it and I'm sure you will enjoy it. 😊

Wishing all my followers 😊 peace, love, and joy this holiday season and throughout 2022!
