Hi again everyone

Lets see if this works.....I can't get into the wh chat but can get into campfire chat, hmmmm.  hopefully someone will see this.

Anyone else around?  I see admin is logged on, maybe working on problems.

Bush greeting all.

Hope all is well since the last time I spoke to you all. (years back or it feels like it)

We are planning to cook a "potjiekos" in the near future infront of the web-cam.

Potjiekos" (literally meaning pot food) has been part of South Africa’s culture for many centuries. When the first Dutch settlers arrived in the Cape, they brought with them their ways of cooking food in heavy cast iron pots, which hung from the kitchen hearth above the fire.

Long before the arrival of the early settlers in the Cape, the Bantu people who were migrating into South Africa, learned the use of the cast iron cooking pot from Arab traders and later the Portuguese colonists.

Mieliepap Recipe

This mieliepap recipe tells you how make an old South African favorite that goes well with meat or as a breakfast porridge or cereal.

5 - 6 cups water (½ water, ½ milk for cereal)
1 cup corn flour
½ tsp. salt
1 tbsp. butter (optional, but it makes it taste better)

Boil the water in a pot and add the salt and butter. Slowly stir in the flour with a wok or fork. Turn the heat to medium and wait for your pap to start bubbling. Cover the pot with a lid and let the pap simmer for 30 - 45 minutes. (The longer and slower it steams, the better the taste.)

This can be eaten with milk and sugar for breakfast, or with brown gravy and braaivleis (BBQ'd meat).

Good morning everyone!
