Sour curry without sour herbs 🌿 This is my mom’s Calabash Sour Curry — simple, comforting, and full of flavour. Ingredients (serves 3–4): 1 medium calabash (about 500 g), skin on 1 medium onion, sliced 5 cloves garlic 1 inch ginger 2–3 green chilies, sliced 1 sprig curry leave 5 small brinjal (eggplant), sliced 1 medium tomato, chopped 1 tsp turmeric 1–1½ tbsp tamarind paste (to taste) 2 packed cups fresh spinach Salt to taste 2 tbsp oil Method: 1. Heat oil and sauté onion, garlic, ginger, chilies & curry leaves until lightly browned 2. Add turmeric, salt, tomato & tamarind paste and mix well. 3. Add calabash & brinjal, stir to coat 4. Add spinach, cover and cook until soft and reduced 💡 Tip: Spinach + tamarind gives that sour herb taste even when sour herbs aren’t available. #CalabashCurry #SourCurry #HomeCooking #kznfood
