This traditional South African sweet treat is actually very simple to make and ever so popular. Use my added twist and get creative by using different types of jams for the filling. A homemade pastry will be ideal, but I used a good-quality shop-bought short crust pastry and it works really well. Just follow the steps to blind bake the pastry cups first, for the best, flaky results.
This simple combination of ingredients truly complements one another and is a beautiful synergy of flavours, colours and textures. The vibrant colours of this salad is enough to make your mouth water. Citrus paired with a minty vinaigrette is a refreshing combination, while the sweetness of the rubies gives it just the right balance of flavours. Enjoy this salad with any protein of your choice.
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.
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!
The Italians love a rich tomato sauce with meatballs on pasta – we’ve added a South African twist by using traditional boerewors to create quick meatballs. You’re going to want to make this again and again!
