What are your likes?

We like to braai, naturally

But all of a sudden we like the braai pie thing

Braai, Potjie or whatever we do on the manifolds during the trip. Bone in foods are the best, like ribs, chicken, shanks etc.

Tinned sardines, mielies and baked beans.

If we are feeling adventurous we pull out the tinned viennas.

Braai is always lekker
We often make a pasta or a chicken-ala-king type meal, 2 pots, quick and easy.
Toasted pizza, fold your pizza in half and wack it in one of those braai grids that opens up (close it again), turn often, comes out really well, kids like this as we make small pizza's and they can add toppings they like.

Braai Wraps.

Yip. You read right

Same principles apply as when you would make Braai Broodtjies. You only use wraps. Its healthier, it tastes better (according to all who i've made it for)

Try it

Lazy recipe for Cobb Bread
.

This is my current , simplified , lazy recipe for bread using a Cobb.
... but my bread does come out a bit dense 😳
... so I welcome any comments improvements
... will add photo s ...

The dough rises by about 25% and these amounts suit my tin size\vol
... ( make sure your tin fits under dome w space for bread rise ... !)
... The tin tapers upwards , so easy to extract bread from my tin after stage 1...
I also used olive-oiled Al-foil as floor & ceiling to oiled bake tin ... or proper expandable cake-tin with removable floor...

Put about 3 or 4 brickets in Cobb to get heated up & ready ...

SASKO , Bran Rich, Self Raising, Wheat Flour ... say 750g
1 T-Spoon of each of Salt , Sugar , Baking Powder ...
2 sachets of yeast
V thoroughly mix the above ( & add herbs etc ?) , before adding ...
2.5 cups of water ...
Knead and work to consistent dough ( say on a bread board ... by hand) ...
Pack in Round Baking Tin w detachable base ... or similar ... 20cm Diam by 9 cm ht
Leave to self-raise for 35m in warm place ... ( covered on L-Rover Bonnet ? )
Put charged bake tin in (htd) Cobb for 35 mins (w Al 'lid' ), under cobb dome ...
Remove from tin, invert , and bake 'naked' loaf for 15m, under cobb dome

Test by piercing loaf w knife ... No un-cooked mixture sticks to blade ... at all ... = OK!

Leave loaf to cool till only slightly warm before test slice ...
Any comments / advice / improvements ?
