Bobotie! Everyone has their version of this South African favourite – a mince dish with typical Cape Malay seasonings and baked with an egg custard on top. This is my version, which I developed for AMC Cookware’s recipe book, The AMC Book years ago and it remains my go-to recipe.
Soup is homely, comfort food and this recipe will quickly become a winter favourite, not just because of the flavour, but also the chunky texture. Bacon and potato always work well together, but make sure you remove any excess bacon fat, otherwise it can settle on top of the soup. Also take care when seasoning, as bacon is salty. Potatoes don’t freeze well as they become glassy. Rather keep leftovers for lunch the next day.
In South Africa we love to braai! So, it’s great to have a good marinade on hand. This curry marinade will be as good on chicken, pork or beef. You can even make delicious sosaties (kebabs) with this marinade. The perfect recipe to make for the public holiday tomorrow!
A good patty recipe is great to have on hand. Enjoy ‘fakeaways’ at home with this delicious recipe I developed for AMC Cookware. The mushroom topping adds a lot of flavour and is our healthier take on a creamy mushroom sauce. Perfect recipe for the long weekend!
Whether it is pan-fried or braaied over the coals, steak is often served with a rich, creamy mushroom sauce. This is a healthier option that is also perfect for chicken fillets.
Have you ever roasted a deboned pork neck? This succulent cut of meat with herbs and apricots served on spicy couscous is a feast of flavours.
