| | Capsicum pepper, seeded | | 2
| | Fresh ginger | | 6
| tbsp | Vegetable oil, or ghee | | 3
| | Milk | | 3 1/2
| oz | Creamed coconut | | 3
| tbsp | Dessicated coconut | | 2
| tbsp | Tamarind puree, (or tamarind | | | SPICES | | 1

| tsp | Chilli powder | | 1/2
| tsp | Turmeric | | 1
| tsp | Coconut powder |

Procedures:
| 1 | add enough water to the spices to make a stiffish paste, then leave to stand for a few minutes. | | 2 | make a puree of the onion, garlic, chillies, red pepper and ginger. | | 3 | heat the oil and fry the spice paste for 5 minutes or so; stir to prevent sticking. | | 4 | Then add the puree and fry for 15 minutes. | | 5 | Warning: the puree will sputter and splash quite a lot during this stage! just grit your teeth and keep going! | | 6 | combine the cubed yam and sweet potato with the above in a casserole and place in an oven preheated to 375f/190c. | | 7 | Cook for about 1 hour. | | 8 | meanwhile, heat the milk and melt the block of creamed coconut. | | 9 | brown the dessicated coconut under the grill. | | 10 | halfway through the cooking of the casserole, add the two coconuts and the tamarind puree to the dish. | | 11 | Stir, and add some water (or vegetable stock) if it needs it - the finished curry should have a thick, rich sauce. | | 12 | serves 4. | | 13 | notes: | | 14 | this is the curry i made for a dinner party on good friday. | | 15 | I used yams and sweet potatoes, but in the past i"ve used a mixture of broccolli and cauliflower with equally good results. | | 16 | Before becoming vegetarian, i used to use cubed lean lamb or beef. | | 17 | Whichever main ingredient is used, it"s long been my favourite home-made curry! |
