Durban changed how South Africa eats curry — bunny chows, masala chops, tandoori chicken on a Weber in the garden. This rub brings that bold, fragrant masala profile to the braai grid: garam masala and cumin, fenugreek for depth, curry leaf and chilli for the signature Durban punch. Rub onto chicken thighs, lamb chops or paneer blocks and grill over hot coals.
South African heritage
