REVEALED: Our top 10 South African recipes

In the second in our series of ‘Food24’s top 10’, here are the most viewed SA-style recipes on the site.

10. Cremora tart 
This is a real retro classic that graced many tables in the 70s and 80s. Cremora is a local coffee creamer that somehow made its ways into desserts. And we’re not complaining!

9. Amagwinya (Zulu for ‘vetkoek’)
A true South African style snack that’s hard to resist – who can say no to deep-fried dough? Fillings range from cheese and jam to mince or even curry.

8. Chakalaka 
SA’s spicy take on a vegetable chutney. It’s great as an accompaniment to grilled meat or as a topping on pizza.

7. Chicken breyani 
Chicken and rice is always a crowd-pleasing combo!

6. Oxtail stew and creamy samp
This is comfort food at its best.

5. Umqombothi
A unique alcoholic drink made from fermenting maize or sorghum.

4. Sago pudding 
This warming pudding is perfect for those icy winter days.

3.  Another chicken breyani 
This dish is (clearly!) a hit with our readers.

2. Malva pudding 
The ultimate winter warmer, this baked pudding is decadently sweet and usually served with creamy custard. We can see why it’s so popular.

1. Peppermint Crisp tart 
   A clear winner and one dish that’s loved across the country.
