How to make it

  • Note to salt lovers: There is no added salt due to the salt be obtained from the commercial stock.
  • Place legs into stock, with garlic (finely chopped), 4 onions (cut into chunks), a good handful of mixed herbs, another of cracked pepper and three large handfuls of shaved coconut or even four
  • Braise legs in stock until meal falls from the bone
  • Remove bones and set aside for a while
  • Cut breasts into fillets to reduce thickness by 2/3s
  • Place breast fillets into orange juice and poach until well cooked
  • Break breast fillets apart to form smaller strips of meat about a mouthful size
  • Fry the breast strips in a hot, heavy pan continually turning until they have a crispy coating, then set aside with the boneless legs
  • In a heavy pan, place oil, curry, 4 onions (thinly sliced) and roast until the onions are brown
  • Add coconut milk, sultanas, mixed peel, finely chopped apples and pears and simmer until sultanas are plump and apples ‘n’ pears are also soft.
  • Add the coconut/onion/fruit mixture to the legs and simmer until the meat has almost become thin strands of meat and the liquid has reduced sufficiently
  • Add the browned strips of breast and simmer further until they become softened, but be careful that you don’t over cook to maintain some chunkiness in the dish
  • Thicken as necessary with a little plain flour, or whatever other preferred means
  • Call them to the table

    This sounds absolutely delightful! Will save and perhaps cut down to a smaller recipe. I love your comment re "salt lovers". the usa diet is overloaded with salt. water retention, tastebuds "out of whack". Thank you for posting. 555555555
