Ouma's Kitchen
Melktert
Milk tart — a cinnamon-dusted, just-set custard in a sweet crust. Every ouma has the best one.
Buttermilk rusks
Twice-baked, rock-hard and made for dunking in rooibos or coffee. The taste of every South African road trip.
Bobotie
Gently spiced mince baked under a savoury custard, with bay leaves on top. Serve with yellow rice and chutney.
