korhaans

Korhaans are a traditional South African dish, originating from the Cape Malay community. The name "korhaan" is derived from the Malay word "kurma," which means date. The dish is typically made with dates, which are cooked with a variety of spices and sometimes meat or fish. The dates are often pitted and soaked in water overnight before cooking, which helps to soften them and enhance their flavor. The dish is usually served with rice or bread and is often accompanied by a side of chutney or a spicy sauce. Korhaans are known for their rich, sweet, and spicy flavor, making them a popular dish in South African cuisine. The dish is often prepared during special occasions and celebrations, such as weddings and birthdays.
