    Chipolatas and mash — they’re bangers, but smaller (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Pork chipolatas – essentially they’re baby pork bangers even though they’re never called that – can be a fun alternative to conventional bangers for this family favourite. I was passing the sausages section of my local store the other day when I spied pork chipolatas. They were a favourite in my mom’s kitchen when I was growing up in Oranjemund, and in recent years they’ve been a top choice during our Karoo stoep-sitting days. The local butchery in Cradock, De Wilge, makes excellent

    Pork belly and crackling with red grapes and fennel (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Roast a slab of pork belly in an air fryer oven with red grapes and grape juice, fennel seeds and fronds, mustard seeds and black peppercorns. Sweetness and spice go well with pork, and a large air fryer oven is the perfect vehicle for roasting one with tender meat and perfectly crunchy crackling. A large rectangular Pyrex dish is the ideal vessel for a slab of pork belly, as it contains the joint snugly, in a base of liquid and aromatics, while the rind stands clear of the liquid to get the bla

    A family-size chicken and mushroom pie (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Some of the best foods are right in front of our eyes. Right there, in the hot oven on the counter at the corner café. Who doesn’t love a chicken and mushroom pie? But it has to be a good one. Last week, the Foodie’s Wife and I were both in town but at different places, and left to our own devices. I had a “call” to record an interview (with my friend and collaborator, thespian Lynita Crofford) for kykNet, about my play about Emily Hobhouse, in which she has performed many times. The Fo

    Succulent & spicy — the very best boerie in the land (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    After traversing South Africa in search of the very best that a stukkie boerewors can be, the wagons have come in, delivering a load of wors from every corner of the land. And we have a decisive winner. What were the chances that the boerewors that most of you regard as the finest in the land is made and sold a seven-minute drive from my front door? I didn’t set it up that way, promise. Serendipity follows me around… And it brought your favourite boerewors to me. And to my braai. And on it w

    KEVIN Five ways with pork — sosaties, three chops recipes, and a crackling good quest (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Green fig preserve, grilled apples, fresh orange with rosemary and cinnamon, and the classic combination of honey and mustard are all great options for pork on the braai. And yes, you can cook a hunk of pork belly on the braai – I should know, I’ve done it. Pork almost invariably needs something sweet, and that helps with the charring of the meat as well, which makes pork chops, sosaties and even belly perfect for braaing over the coals. If you follow my food writing you’ll know that I reg
