Rafi’s Ma’s Paretal (Med) Serves 4-6

£6.55

This is a Spicebox exclusive, based on a recipe from Rafi’s Mother-in-law. Rafi’s in-laws were originally from Kerala, India, but they emigrated to Malaysia in the 1930s. Hence the invention of this dish!

A Malay and South Indian fusion, flavoured with coconut, curry leaves and fennel. A great celebration dish, cooked for Christmas day in the Fernandez family (with 20kg of mutton!).
