Pork and Apricot Curry image

When I ran my own Pub/Restaurant this was the most asked for recipe, I never did share it with my customers but I will share it with you. Feel free to use fresh apricots if you wish or fresh peaches are as good, this is not a true, authentic curry but it is very tasty and wonderful cold the next day. PLEASE buy best curry powder you can afford or make your own.

I had a hard time finding all of the ingredients for this recipe. I ended up having to substitute a few things.

This curry was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less apricots or adding some more chili powder.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but the curry still turned out delicious. I used chicken instead of pork and I added some vegetables.

This curry is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

I'm not a big fan of curry, but this dish was actually really good. The pork was so tender and the apricots added a nice sweetness.
