VETKOEK

A RECIPE BY OUR PANELLIST ROLANDA ALEXANDER

Vetkoek, a traditional South African treat, has its origins in the Afrikaans culture, particularly among the Boer settlers. This hearty dish is a type of fried bread that is popular in South Africa and is often made at home or sold by street vendors. The dough is typically made with flour, salt, yeast and water, and then deep-fried until golden brown. It is commonly enjoyed with savoury or sweet fillings such as mince, cheese or jam. The vetkoek is especially popular in the rural areas of South Africa, where it is a staple food for many households. It is a beloved dish among the Afrikaans and other South African cultures, and can be found throughout the country, especially in regions with a strong Afrikaans influence.
