How to Make African Curry

1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.
2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, along with 2 bay leaves. Sauté until the onion is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 2 tablespoons curry powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1-inch pieces), OR 1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined), OR 1 lb crab meat. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear (15-20 minutes), or the shrimp/crab is pink and opaque (about 5-7 minutes).
5. Reduce heat to low.
6. Gradually whisk in 1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes until heated through and slightly thickened.
7. Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice just before serving.
8. Serve hot with tomato chutney and onion hot sauce.
