Die natuurlike soet smaak van botterskorsie is perfek as bykos – iets waarvoor Suid-Afrikaners baie lief is. Hier is ’n effens ander aanslag, want die stukkies geroosterde suurlemoenskil is ’n heerlike verrassing. Hasselback-styl word oorspronklik met aartappels gedoen, deur hulle in dun skyfies, maar nie regdeur nie, te sny en dan so in ‘waaiers’ tot goudbruin en bros te rooster.
Wie’s nie dol oor ’n stapeltjie warm pampoenkoekies nie? Maar het jy dit al met botterskorsie gemaak? Probeer gerus ook dié aromatiese botter met vars salie – jy gaan ’n nuwe geur-wêreld ontdek. Die kaneelstokkie waarmee die botterskorsie gekook word, gee dit ook ’n ekstra spesiale geur. En as die idee van die saliebotter jou glad nie opgewonde maak nie, is jy welkom om dit met die tradisionele kaneelsuiker voor te sit. Maar probeer gerus die botter, jy sal nie spyt wees nie.
This is no ordinary bean salad. It’s wholesome and flavourful! Enjoy as a vibrant side dish, great for a braai, or have it as a light vegetarian meal – perfect to pack into a lunchbox as well.
You could almost not get a simpler dish to make if you tried, but the subtle flavours will not be easily forgotten. I have served these mushrooms as a starter or a more luxurious salad. It’s also delicious on toasted Italian bread or skewered on a stick as a canapé with drinks. Use as a ‘sauce’ on a piece of steak or a chicken fillet. Choose a variety of ordinary and wild mushrooms for an interesting taste.
Have you tasted the fabulous combination of roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas before? Roasting veggies brings out the best in them. It’s also a quick and easy cooking methods, as the oven does most of the work. The cauliflower gets a lovely nutty taste, and the natural sweetness of onions and sweet potatoes is absolutely delicious when roasted. And you know I am the cumin queen so that’s why my favourite spice is used in this recipe and it pairs beautifully with the potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas. The herby yoghurt sauce rounds this veggie main or side dish off perfectly!
This salad is made for a crowd, just perfect to make at your next braai when you need to feed lots of tummies. Unlike a heavy mayonnaise-based coleslaw this slaw is light and refreshing!
