Menu for Chenin Blanc day with Leopard’s Leap
The 13th of June was International Chenin Blanc Day, and to celebrate, Leopard’s Leap Wines asked me to develop a few recipes to pair with their lovely trio of Chenin Blanc’s. Think mussels in a creamy sauce, a broccolini and citrus salad and an elegant cheese platter with roasted pears and goats cheese. Yum!
Marbled chocolate malva pudding
This recipe uses a few not-so-typical ingredients for a malva pudding, but the end result is utterly delicious. You can decide whether you want to serve it with custard or vanilla ice cream. Make sure you have all the ingredients and spoil your family for the public holiday tomorrow.
Chicken potjie with herb dumplings
This recipe is another great one-pot wonder! It uses basic, everyday ingredients, so it’s a sure family favourite! A potjie is traditionally made outside on the fire, but this one is made inside, in a large pot. This means that you don’t have to wait all day to enjoy a delicious potjie. We made this traditional recipe extra South African by steaming herb and mealie meal dumplings on top of the flavourful sauce. Perfect food for this weekend!
