Prepare the vegetables: Peel and grate the carrots. Deseed and finely dice the bell peppers. Roughly chop the tomatoes. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 2
Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (approx. 180ยฐC / 350ยฐF). Add the chopped onion and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
โฑ๏ธ 8 minutes - 3
Stir in the grated carrots and diced bell peppers. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften slightly.
โฑ๏ธ 7 minutes - 4
Add the curry powder and peri-peri powder (if using). Stir well to coat the vegetables and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. This step toasts the spices and enhances their flavor.
โฑ๏ธ 2 minutes - 5
Pour in the chopped tomatoes and the undrained can of baked beans. Stir everything together. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
โฑ๏ธ 1 minute - 6
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the chakalaka simmer for at least 15-20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the flavors have melded. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. The relish should thicken slightly.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes - 7
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust spice levels if needed. Serve hot or at room temperature.
โฑ๏ธ 1 minute - 8
