Spek Braaibroodjie

After a few days of grey, sodden skies, the patches of blue and sunshine piercing through clouds today were enough to incite me to come out; and once I was out, I wouldn't leave the garden! I lit a barbie, and grilled myself an excellent Spek Braaibroodjie, the addition of bacon to the South African classic making it an even more-ish treat, which I ate, reading a good book, with the green budgies perching on the apple tree for company! I encourage you to partake in this simple pleasure, if the weather allows it! Happy Tuesday!

Ingredients (serves 2):

2 rashers smoked streaky bacon

2 large, thin slices Sourdough bread 

1/2 tablespoon butter, softened

2 heaped tablespoons Peach Chutney

half a small red onion

half a small, not too ripe tomato, rinsed

30 grams/1 ounce good quality Gouda Cheese

Prepare barbecue: half an hour before grilling, arrange a small layer of coals in the barbecue. Top with a few small branches of dry wood (applewood gives a good taste), and light.

In a small frying pan over medium-high heat, cook bacon rashers, about 1 minute on each side, until just browned and sizzling. Remove from the heat. Set aside.

Spread butter on one side of both Sourdough slices. Flip them over and spread all sides generously with Peach Chutney.

Thinly slice red onion and cut tomato into slices. Arrange red onion slices onto the Peach Chutney on one of the Sourdough slices. Top with tomato slices, in an even layer.

Cut Gouda into thick enough slices. Remove the wax, cut slices into bits, and arrange Gouda bits in a rather even layer onto the Peach Chutney on the other Sourdough slice. Top with reserved sizzled bacon rashers.

Sandwich laden Sourdough slices together carefully, and place sandwich onto a gridiron, preferably one with two grates, to secure and hold it.

Once the flames have died down, and the embers are red, place gridiron over the embers, and grill the sandwich. It won’t take more than 2 minutes on each side, possibly less! 

Carefully remove Spek Braaibroodjie from the gridiron and cut it in halves.

Enjoy Spek Braaibroodjie immediately, with dressed lettuce, and a glass of chilled South African Chenin Blanc or Chardonnay!

Braaibroodjie and Boerewors: Cooking Out

"I wasn't sure what to expect from Mrs. Ball's chutney, but it is a sweet, mildly spicy condiment that was complemented well by the pungent and savory combination of onions, tomatoes, and cheddar cheese. " Braaibroodjie and Boerewors: Cooking Out

Braaibroodjie Waffle Toasties / South African Grilled Cheese Sandwich (Vegan)

[sumiandwaynetozimzamza]

6/4/2024 - A bit of a grey, drizzly day here in Cape Town (the famous Table Mountain was wrapped in clouds all day), but we made the most of it! We visited the exhibits at the Nelson Mandela Gateway which included an impactful dual timeline tracking landmark moments in South African history alongside the evolution of Robben Island from a leper colony to a prison to a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Then we walked around the waterfront, visited the Two Oceans Aquarium, and found Mojo Market - a fantastic “food court” like place chock full of food and drink choices! Sumi got some tasty Indonesian food and I ordered up a South African braaibroodjie (it’s a fresh bit of dough “baked” on the grill and then made into a sort of grilled cheese with your choice of meat.). A terrific first day in Cape Town!

song stuck in my head: this is literally THE most random and weird one ever, but... Mary Did You Know, the Pentatonix version. (i had them on shuffle earlier because i love their harmonies, and my brain decided that's the one to fixate on, apparently 😆)

last song i listened to: Fool's Gold by One Direction 🌟

three favourite foods: ohhhh, it's always so tricky for me to say JUST three, and i feel like it also depends so much on my mood? but a good pizza is always up there, and also pasta, anytime always. oh my god, and a good old South African braai, with lamb chops and braaibroodjies 🙏🙏

last google: the touring schedule for this choir/singing group my friend runs

dream trip: Italy to watch the Monza Grand Prix ❤️ and then afterwards, travelling down the Italian coast with my girlfriend and having loads of gelato and pasta and wine and taking two hundred cliché couple pics at every single beautiful view <3

anything i want right now: i was talking about South African food earlier and now i CRAVE South African food... specifically pap en sous for some reason... 🥺🥺 i WANT. also, red wine, tbh. yes please 🍷

“Braai, the South African version of barbecue, is not just about cooking meat, it's a cultural tradition that brings family and friends together in celebration. The word "braai" comes from Afrikaans, meaning "to grill," and it's all about the fire and the food. Meat is marinated and cooked to perfection, including popular choices like chicken, pork, lamb, steaks, boerewors, and wild game such as springbok, kudu, eland, and warthog, as well as seafood in coastal areas. Along with the meat, side dishes like salads and desserts are served, and the beloved braaibroodjie, a grilled sandwich made with tomato, cheese, onion, and chutney, is a must-have at any braai.”

I made a mac n cheeze braai broodjie from my leftover cashew-mac-n-cheeze and it was a win 🤤 I still added the classic tomato and onion combo, but just replaced the cheeze with this concoction and added a thin spread of chutney. . . . #vegan #plantbased #southafrican #vegansa #plantbasedsa #braaibroodjie #braai #toastie #cheeze #macncheese #macncheeze https://www.instagram.com/p/B-m3FDWJ3OY/?igshid=a4a56shfc32d
