Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat (around 190ยฐC / 375ยฐF). Add the finely chopped onions and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
โฑ๏ธ 8 minutes - 2
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until it's browned all over, stirring occasionally. Drain off any excess fat if desired.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 3
Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, coriander powder, and cumin powder. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the spices are fragrant and coat the beef mixture. This step is crucial for blooming the spices.
โฑ๏ธ 2 minutes - 4
Add the apricot chutney, raisins (if using), and white vinegar to the skillet. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
โฑ๏ธ 1 minute - 5
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the mince simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes - 6
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. The mince is now ready to be used. Serve hot as a filling for vetkoek or pies, or as a flavorful topping for rice or mashed potatoes.
