Kool en spek is ’n bekende kombinasie en beide is ekstra lekker as dit gerooster is. Die soetsuur smaak van mosterd is perfek in hierdie eenvoudige, maar geurige bygereg. Moenie die kool te lank rooster nie, want dit moet net gaar en beslis nie pap wees nie. Die twee kleure kool lyk mooi, maar net witkool sal dit ewe lekker wees.
In this recipe Italian flavours are added to mushrooms to make a delicious side dish with a braai or serve them as a vegetarian meal – perfect for this time of year. The oil is seasoned with lemon and herbs and serves a double purpose to partly brush over the mushrooms and season the tomatoes with the rest. All of this is topped with cheese and roasted together – yum!
Sometimes I can imagine the flavours of a dish before I actually make it. That is exactly what happened with this salad. Citrus and cabbage works well and cabbage, cucumber and dill combines well together. Then, surely all four of them should work together? Allow the cabbage and cucumber to marinate in the sauce for a bit to give a slight pickle flavour, but it should still be fresh. That perfect balance between pickled and fresh makes this salad ideal with braaied chicken, pork or fish.
Beste vir ‘n bredie: Vir ‘n bredie, is ‘n kombinasie van gaarmaakmetodes die beste manier om goeie resultate te kry. Soos met ‘n sop of ander eenpot-gereg, word van die bestanddele dikwels eers verbruin en dan met die res van die bestanddele in vloeistof geprut. Die feit dat bestanddele soos uie en knoffel, gemmer, wortels of seldery eers gesoteer word, gee beslis ‘n ander geur as wanneer alles net saam gekook word. Deur die vleis heel eerste in die kastrol te verbruin, kry alles ook ‘n meer gekonsentreerde geur.
Wonder jy soms wat die beste gaarmaakmetode vir ‘n spesifieke bestanddeel is? Die regte keuse kan nogal ’n groot verskil aan die eindresultaat maak. Dit gee ook ekstra geur én behou meer van die tekstuur, kleur, geur en voedingswaarde.
