Bunny Chow: Hollowed bread filled with spicy curry, a popular takeaway dish from Durban's vibrant Indian community.
Foods: Bunny Chow
- 250.00 g Quarter or half unsliced white loaf (always unsliced — sliced bread loses structural integrity; the crust walls hold the curry; the scooped virgin bread placed on top for scooping; the bread IS the bowl)
- 200.00 ml Mutton curry or bean curry (the two canonical fillings; chicken/vegetable are later adaptations) — absorbs into the bread walls while the bread maintains structural shape
- 0.00 g No additional ingredients — originated at back doors of Durban Indian restaurants under apartheid: a takeaway container for Black customers not permitted inside
