- In a medium sized sauce pan gently brown off your mince in a little oil (preferably corn oil but veg will do). Once cooked decant into a colander to drain off any excess fat.
- Whilst your beef drains, gently fry your garlic, onion, celery and red pepper until soft.
- Return your mince back to the pan along with apricots, sultanas, almond, coconut and spices and continue to fry for a further 5 minutes until all ingredients have infused.
- Add tomatoes, tomato puree and stock and simmer for about 25 to 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 180 C / Gas 4.
- Remove from the stove and add the jam and coriander and stir until the jam completely melts into your curry. Turn into a casserole dish, cool slightly and allow to form a skin.
- Beat together your eggs and milk and gently pour over your curry (tip- hold a spoon about 1cm over the curry and pour the egg mix into it to keep the eggs from sinking).
- Bake in the preheated oven until your eggs have firmed up, about 10 minutes.
