How to make Capetown fruit and vegetable curry

• Heat a heavy pot (non stick or sprayed with cooking spray) until medium-hot.
• Add onions, garlic and ginger, stir til slightly brown and sticking, then add a splash of water and stir to unstick the onions.
• Keep cooking for about 5 minutes, stirring all the while.
• Let the onions stick a little, but add small amounts of water and scrape the bottom to prevent burning.
• Add spice mix and continue to cook for 10 more minutes, again letting the mixture stick slightly but adding water as needed to prevent burning.
• Add zuchini and 1 1/2 cups water, stir well to clear the bottom of the pan, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Mix in green beans, apples, bell pepper and dried apricots.
• Simmer gently for about 20 or 30 minutes, until beans are cooked to your taste.
