The other popular South African curry is known as Durban curry, and is probably the only curry in the world to be named after a city! This is a reddish-coloured, slightly oily extremely hot and spicy curry, its origins going back to 1860 when the first Indian labourers arrived to work on the sugar plantations.   Legend has it that when the labourers went to work they took left-over curry from the previous nights' supper for their lunch.  Instead of a container, they carried their curry in a hollowed-out loaf of bread, and so the famous South African bunny chow was born.
