Somewhere between two freezers and the festival...

...we have lost 48 feta and pepperdew muffins...! Did we sell them by mistake thinking they were cornmeal (but they had great big pieces of feta sticking out...hard to miss) Or are they still in Granny's freezer? We have no idea where they went. If you think you saw them - or even ate one, let us know. Unless of course you took the whole lot (we did have one teenager breaking into camp-kitchen looking for a 3am cheese scone) in which case - we hope you liked them.

Chakalaka (sunshine food and don't we need it?)

Chakalaka (sunshine food and don't we need it?)
Chakalaka is a traditional South African recipe for a fiery tomato relish. You can eat it with almost anything and either hot or cold. It is thought to originate in Jo'burg and ask anyone for a recipe and you will never hear the same ingredients twice.  Baked beans are often added.  Try it and see!
 
 
1 large onion, finely diced.
6 large tomatoes, skinned and finely chopped
2 green peppers, finely diced
4 large carrots, peeled and grated
2 tsp curry powder
2 small hot chillies, finely diced
a couple of splashes of peri peri sauce to taste
pinch of salt
150ml vegetable oil.
 

Method: 

Heat the oil in a pan then add the onions and green peppers. Fry until soft before adding the carrots, tomatoes and chillies.

Mix thoroughly and allow the mixture to simmer gently for 1 minute (stirring occasionally). Towards the end of the cooking time use a broad spoon to squash the ingredients against the side of the pan so that the mixture becomes smooth.

Add all the remaining ingredients and cook for a further 15 minutes.
