Ingredients

  • 12 slices bread
  • butter or olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed and chopped
  • 400 g baby spinach (or normal spinach, finely sliced)
  • 200 g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 240 g cheddar cheese, sliced or grated
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Heat a tot of oil or butter in a pan and fry the onion and garlic until soft. Add spinach and fry for a few minutes until wilted and half the size, and any excess water released has cooked off.
  2. Remove from heat, add feta and mix well. Season.
  3. Spread butter or olive oil on one side of each slice of bread (these sides will be outward-facing in the assembled braaibroodjie). Pack half of these slices buttered-side down and layer with the spinach mixture and cheese. Close the braaibroodjies with the remaining bread slices, buttered sides facing upwards.
  4. “Braaibroodjies is draaibroodjies”: Braaibroodjies should be turned often and braaied in a closed, hinged grid. You want medium-paced, gentle heat and the grid should be relatively high. Your aim is for the cheese to be melted and all other fillings to be completely heated by the time the outsides are golden brown. A great tip is to slightly open and close the hinged grid a few times after each of the first few turns of the braai process as it helps the braaibroodjies not to get stuck to the grid.
  5. Once done, slice each braaibroodjie in half and serve immediately.

braai broodjies recipes

Ingredients

  • 300 g plain flour
  • 10 ml instant yeast
  • 5 ml salt
  • 15 ml sugar
  • 30 ml sunflower oil
  • 180-200 ml warm water

Directions

  1. Mix the yeast and sugar together in a small cup together with a little of the warm water and stir. The mixture should foam after a minute or two. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and salt, then add the oil and water while mixing continuously. When the mixture comes together to form a dough, add the yeast and sugar and mix well.
  2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes. Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased plastic bag or in a lightly greased bowl covered with a damp tea towel and allow to rise for about an hour, or until it has doubled in volume.
  3. Divide the dough into 12 roughly equal pieces and shape into slightly flattened balls on a floured surface. Place on a baking sheet and cover with clingfilm. Leave to rise for another 15 minutes.
  4. Place the braai grid over evenly distributed direct coals and allow to heat for 5 minutes. Lightly grease the grid and place the rolls directly on it for about 15-20 minutes. Alternatively, place the baking sheet in an oven at about 180C/350F for 15-20 minutes.
  5. When half the cooking time has elapsed, turn the roosterkoek over. The roosterkoek are done when they are lightly browned, crispy on the outside and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from the fire/oven, split open and serve hot with butter.

Onion Marmelade & Cheddar Braai Broodjies

Ingredients

  • 8 slices  ciabatta
  • 4 t/20 ml Dijon mustard
  • 4 T ( or more ) Red Onion marmalade
  • 1 x 100 g Cheddar – grated
  • salt/pepper to taste
  • 4 t butter

Red Onion Marmalade

  • 2kg red onions or regular onions
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 140g butter
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 140g golden caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaf
  • pinch of chilli flakes (optional)
  • 75cl bottle red wine
  • 350ml sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 200ml port

Directions

Red Onion Marmalade

  1. Halve and thinly slice the onions, then thinly slice the garlic. Melt the butter with the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan over a high heat. Tip in the onions and garlic and give them a good stir so they are glossed with butter.
  2. Sprinkle over the sugar, thyme leaves, chilli flakes if using and some salt and pepper. Give everything another really good stir and reduce the heat slightly.
  3. Cook uncovered for 40-50 minutes, stirring occasionally. The onions are ready when all their juices have evaporated, they’re really soft and sticky and smell of sugar caramelising. They should be so soft that they break when pressed against the side of the pan with a wooden spoon. Slow cooking is the secret of really soft and sticky onions, so don’t rush this part.
  4. Pour in the wine, vinegar and port and simmer everything, still uncovered, over a high heat for 25-30 minutes, stirring every so often until the onions are a deep mahogany colour and the liquid has reduced by about two-thirds.
  5. It’s done when drawing a spoon across the bottom of the pan clears a path that fills rapidly with syrupy juice. Leave the onions to cool in the pan, then scoop into sterilised jars and seal.
  6. Can be eaten straight away, but keeps in the fridge for up to 3 months.
