Fireside Dinner Menu # 24

This week’s menu has a lot of happy moments but my personal favourite was the paprika potatoes. You have to try them – I think you will want to braai them with everything.

My cornbread crust did not come out quite crusty enough, so please let me know if you managed to make it look like in the pic of the website!

The sliders came out beautifully as well, I did however assemble them and then baked them in the oven for a while as well. The slow cooker is your friend for the pulled chicken!

You can again download the menu with the links here:

Fireside Dinner Menu # 18

So this week I am posting “off site”. We are blessed to be on our December holiday in the Eastern Cape. Scroll down to download the file with the links to some of the recipes.

The menu this week has a lot of ambitious efforts of which the highlight is probably Jan Braai’s carrot cake. It is as fantastic as it sounds, and I am thinking we might try it for our Christmas dinner as well.

I clearly also had a coconut milk theme going this week!

Fireside Dinner Menu # 8

This week I have a menu that saw us by the braai 6 out of the 7 evenings. Links to various recipes are available and quite a few by Jan Braai. I see that his website was revamped this week so go and take a look!

The highlight for me in this menu is the Moroccan chicken pie. A lifetime ago the Engineer and I (when young and free and able to stay awake later than 8pm) had a date at a cooking school. This specific evening was Moroccan themed, and I think that is probably what kindled my love for Moroccan food as well. On the menu that night was a Moroccan chicken pie, very different from the traditional South African version. It is a blend of beautiful flavours. Try it, you will not be sorry. I was even so impressed with this one that I remembered to take some photographs.
