  1. Saute the onions in the peanut oil for 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in the garlic, ginger & curry spices & continue to saute, stirring constantly for 3 minutes.

  4. Mix in the green beans, apple, peppers & dried apricots.
  5. Simmer gently, covered for about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally & add a little more water if needed to prevent sticking.

  7. Taste & adjust to your liking if necessary. If you need it to be more spicy, add more cayenne or garam masala. If you want it sweeter, add more conserve. Tarter, add more lemon juice.
  8. Serve on a bed of rice, topped with nuts & banana.
