Pap: rain maize meal into salted boiling water, stir hard, then steam on lowest heat 30 minutes, fluffing twice.
Chakalaka: fry onion, chili and curry powder; add peppers, carrots, tomatoes; cook 10 minutes.
Fold in the beans and warm through.
π‘ Chakalaka is a relish, not a stew β vegetables should still argue back a little.
Serve pap firm enough to hold with fingers, chakalaka alongside everything braaied.
Chakalaka rose from Johannesburg's township ingenuity β canned goods, curry and courage. Pap, the maize staple, keeps the fire company; together they feed the whole rainbow of the grill.
