South African Curried Chicken Feet

Chicken feet have been a celebrated option of “meat” in the townships of South Africa for a long time. While the history of how it became popular is not easy to pinpoint, one can assume they were more affordable cuts compared to a full chicken. Typically, chicken feet are prepared as a day-time snack or lunch meal paired with ‘pap’ but for this recipe, we prepare a variation of South African celebrity chef who authored ‘The Lazy Makoti’ {The lazy wife}, Mogau Seshoene's reimagined dinner dish: The Curried Chicken.
