This is a curry with fantastic African influences. It is an unroasted, general purpose curry, excellent for vegetables, lamb, beef, chicken or fish.

What is Bunnychow?

Bunny chow is a South African fast food dish that originated in the Indian community of Durban. It consists of a hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with curry. The bread used is typically a white bread loaf, and the center is scooped out to make space for the curry filling, which can be made with various ingredients such as chicken, beef or veggies.

Bunny chow has a unique history, believed to have been created by Indian immigrants in Durban who needed a convenient way to carry their lunch to work. The dish has since become a popular street food in South Africa and is enjoyed by people of all backgrounds. Bunny chow is often eaten with one’s hands, tearing off a piece of the bread to scoop up the delicious curry filling. It has evolved over time with different variations and spice levels to suit different tastes.

Also this curry can be cooked using any kind of liquid i.e. coconut milk, water, tomatoes, cream, yoghurt, sour cream etc.

Best used for cooking any kind of meat, seafood, vegetables or lentils.

This 280g jar will cook with approximately 6kg of meat, vegetables or seafood – 30 servings.

Mediterranean Magic Chicken & Fish Rub (150g)

January 18, 2023 1 Comment

Inspired by the flavours of the Mediterranean, Taipan BBQ’s Mediterranean Magic is a zesty blend of Rosemary, Lemon, Black Pepper and Chilli, a perfect rub or seasoning.

With this combination of herbs and spices you can expect woodsy aromatics with notes of evergreen, citrus, pepper, mint and floral, the flavours will bring your food to life with a sharp, earthy, citrus fresh and somewhat minty flavour with a hint of chilli.

It all balances together perfectly for most savoury dishes that include roast veggies, grilled or baked chicken and fish, add to soups and stews for some extra oomph!

Can be used as a rub!

Tip: A good rub has sugar and salt to amplify the flavours and allows the rub to penetrate the meat better, the sugar helps with crust formation and browning. It will also balance any bitterness.

Made with all natural ingredients and None of the Nasties.

CWS350MLD I Believe I Can Fly Wing Sauce Mild (350ml)

I Believe I Can Fly Wing Sauce Mild (350ml)

July 31, 2024 No Comments

Cobra Chilli’s version of an old favourite ? Buffalo Wing Sauce.

TIME magazine wrote in 2009 “The first plate of wings was served in 1964 at a family-owned establishment in Buffalo, New York called the Anchor Bar. The wings were the brainchild of Teressa Bellissimo, who covered them in her own special sauce and served them with a side of blue cheese and celery because that’s what she had available.

Proper Buffalo wings should be snapped in half so that they resemble tiny drumsticks rather than their original, harder-to-eat akimbo shape. They are then deep fried without any coating or breading, after which they are slathered in that zesty bright orange sauce that coats your fingers and somehow manages to get all over your clothes no matter how many napkins you use”.

Now these tasty wings are served all over America, every day and gaining in popularity here in Australia.

We’ve reinvented this sauce and made it with the freshest ingredients we can find.

Please enjoy.
