Bunny chow, not for or made from bunnies, is a South African fast food beef curry dish consisting of a hollowed-out bread bowl and filled with this beef curry recipe.
In a mixing bowl mix the flour and salt and set aside for the next step
2 tbsp all-purpose flour, 1 tsp salt
Cut the beef into 1-inch cubes, pat dry with a towel, and coat it in a flour and salt mixture.
1½ lbs stewing beef
Peel and dice all the vegetables and mince the garlic.
4 med red potatoes, 2 med yellow onions, 3 med tomatoes, 2 med carrot, 2 cloves garlic
In a dutch oven heat oil and sear the cubed beef in batches. Once the meat turns brown, remove it to a plate and set it aside.
3 tbsp vegetable oil
In the same pan add the chopped onion and cook it for about 3 minutes until it becomes translucent. Then add the garlic and cook it for an additional minute.
Reduce the heat and add in the spices and stir thoroughly for an additional 30 seconds. Make sure the onions are well coated with spices.
Add the tomatoes in and stir for about 3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
Add the prepared meat, beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, chutney, sugar, and tomato paste. Place a lid on the pan and allow it to cook for 30 minutes on low heat.
Add the potatoes and carrots to the dutch oven, cover it and let everything simmer for an additional 1½ hours. If it begins to dry out, add some more beef stock.
If you prefer thick sauce, combine 1 tablespoon of flour with 3 tablespoons of cold water and prepare a paste. Add it to the dutch oven and stir well. Let it simmer for another 2 minutes.
Cut the bread loaf in half and hollow out the half loaf saving the removed bread for dipping. Transfer the contents into the hollowed bread, putting the center of the bread on one side to mop up extra juices, and serve!
