Directions
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium high heat and saut‚ the shallots until they just begin to turn brown - about 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger root, curry powder, wine, apricots and raisins and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the pears, apple and papaya and simmer for 18 minutes. Stir in the bananas, remove from the heat and strain. Transfer the fruit to a bowl and cover to retain the heat. Return the liquid to the pan (this will be about 1 cup).
To make the curry sauce, stir the cornstarch slurry into the juices, return to the heat and gently stir until thickened - about 1 minute.
Remove from the heat and stir in the coconut essence and salt.
Transfer to a medium bowl and whisk in the yoghurt.
Transfer to a large casserole, stir in the cooked fruit and heat to your desired serving temperature, but do not boil - if you do the yoghurt will separate.
To serve: Spoon onto plates with the rice and sprinkle with the dates and pistachio nuts. You can also chill the fruit in its completed sauce and serve as a cool and refreshing Converted by MC_Buster.
