Nothing says ‘Dinner Is Ready’ like the smell of a hot, delicious curry made with love. Whether you’re in a buzzing township with children playing in the streets or a big city filled with tall shadowy buildings that always remind us when it’s almost dinner time, we all know and recognise the mouth-watering aroma of a curry made with Rajah.
We’ve seen this dish evolve over the years, but one thing remains true: this traditional dish will be with us for centuries to come. The story of a South African curry is in fact the story of our people, our communities, and our lives. Kitchens around the country recognise this authentic dish, and it’s inviting aromas have been a part of many memories at the dinner table.
There are many things to consider when making a curry. Is it made with potatoes or not? Do we use diced tomatoes or crushed tomatoes?

This versatile dish has been a favourite on our tables for centuries and each family having their own unique way of making their curry just right. A lunchtime meal when taking a break from work, or a romantic date recipe for two…there are many ways to enjoy a curry, and it all starts with Rajah.
