Ingredients
  • 2 x 400 g tins pilchards in tomato sauce
  • 30 ml (2 Tbsp) vegetable oil
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 15 ml (1 Tbsp) crushed fresh garlic
  • 1 green chilli, deseeded and chopped
  • 30 ml (2 Tbsp) Rajah Flavourful & Mild Curry Powder
  • 2 potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 125 ml (½ cup) water
  • 10 ml (2 tsp) Aromat
Cooking Method

  1. Open the tins of pilchards. Drain the tomato sauce into one bowl, and place the pilchards in another bowl. Set aside.

  2. Heat the oil in a medium to large pot, over a medium heat, and add the onions. Cook until they are soft and golden.

  3. Add the garlic, chopped chilli and Rajah Flavourful & Mild Curry Powder and cook for 2 minutes. If the contents of the pan seem too dry, add 2 tablespoons of water to loosen everything up.

  4. Add the tomato sauce from the pilchard tins and stir well. Now add the potatoes, water and Aromat.

  5. Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn down the heat and simmer until the potatoes are soft and the sauce has thickened.

  6. Lastly add the pilchards, and cook for about 10 minutes over a low heat. Avoid stirring so the fish doesn’t fall apart – instead, give the pan a gentle shake after you’ve added the pilchards.

  7. Serve hot with warm, buttery mealie (maize) rice.
