Stacked Mustard and Cheese Potato Bake

From Beer Country's Pots Pans and Potjies by Greg Gilowey and Karl Tessendorf

 

“This is everything you know and love in a good ol’ potato bake, but stacked instead of layered. Not only does stacking look fancy, but it gives all the exposed edges a chance to get crispy and lekker.”

 

 


 

Groente-Saadbrood

Uit Lekker & Goed deur Carmien Niehaus

 

“Toe ek die eerste keer hierdie brood probeer, was ek bra skepties. Ek het nie gedink ’n klomp gerasperde murgpampoentjies sou ooit as ’n brood kon uitdraai nie. Groot was my verbasing – dis heerlik klam en bevat min koolhidrate, want daar is nie enige koring in nie, maar tog lekker baie sade. Die eier en kaas help om die mengsel te bind.”

 

 


 

Broccoli, mozzarella and bacon bites

From Low Carb is Lekker 3 by Iné Reynierse

 

“You’ll find plenty of occasions to enjoy moreish little bites – from sundowners and light lunches to party platters, lunchbox treats and picnics. Just beware: they can disappear in seconds, so make plenty.”

 

 


 

Soetrissies met Kekerertjievulsel

Cauliflower, Pomegranate & Pistachio Salad

From Simple by Yotam Ottolenghi

 

“It was a little moment of revelation, I remember, when I first combined roasted cauliflower and raw grated cauliflower in the same dish. So different from one another, but working so well combined. This is lovely as it is, served as part of a spread, or spooned alongside some roast chicken or lamb.”
