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