Recipes from Southern Africa: Chakalaka

Chakalaka is one of the most uniquely South African dishes. The usually spicy vegetable relish is popular all over South Africa and comes in many variations (see Jodi-Ann Pearton's version or KitchenCOZA's version) depending on region and, of course, family traditions. Most Chakalaka versions include onions, garlic, chillies, curry (power or paste), tomatoes and beans. It is traditionally served with meat, pap, bread or stews. Capetonian chef Funi presents his version in the video below. Enjoy! Kudos Funi! To get the recipe for Funi's Chakalaka click here!
