Tonight for supper I made a dish I grew up with, in Africa; it's an
ideal introduction to mildly curried dishes, and a wonderful
opportunity to get lots and lots of polyphenols into a meal.

For 4 people, served with a green salad, the ingredients a

600g steak mince (aka ground beef)
lge yellow onion
2 cloves garlic
2T dried unsweetened cranberries
2T sultanas
1 green apple, chopped
2t curry powder
1t cinnamon
1t turmeric
oil for frying
2 eggs
splash milk - maybe 25 ml

Gently fry onion until slightly coloured. Add garlic and fry for a
minute, until the aroma is released. Add meat and spices, brown. Add
fruit. Check seasoning. Let mixture cool a little.

Heat the oven to 160deg C.
Beat eggs and milk together.
Pour meat mixture into a casserole dish, and press down flat. Pour
over egg mixture, and bake for 30 mins.

I ate a good portion of this tonight, with a nice green salad with
vinaigrette, and a glass of red wine. I had a square of 85% choc for
dessert, and was 5.9 (106) at 1 hour. I hope it works as well for you!
