Bhuna with Tamarind Chutney ~ Ghanaian Groundnut Stew with Shito
Bhuna with Tamarind Chutney:
Bhuna is a fragrant and spicy curry with lots of character and a bit of tang from the use of tamarind in the sauce - the name describes the cooking technique of first frying the onion, garlic and spice paste in hot oil until dark and caramelised. It's served here topped with green chilli, with a cooling raita, tangy tamarind chutney and plain rice on the side.
Ghanaian Groundnut Stew with Shito:
Groundnut (peanut) stew, or 'nkatenkwan', is a rich and spicy dish, a favourite of Gifty (who used to work with us) from her home country of Ghana on the west coast of Africa. We’re serving this deliciously rich curry with plain rice, sliced banana and a fiery chilli sauce on the side known as ‘shito’ which comes from the word for pepper (‘shitor din’) in Ga, a language native to Ghana.
