  • Chellzkitchen is sprung!

    Getting back into the swing of things.....well, honestly it wasn’t as smooth sailing as I would have hoped or imagined. The execution of classes are intimate with a minimum intake of six individuals while the maximum number of participants is...

  • Home-baked

    I completely forgot that I am supposed to be taking myself and all of you avid valued readers though a journey of discovery with Danone Inkomazi (sour milk). I promise to go back to that. I blame the fact that school is opening this week, third term!...

  • INSIDE CHELLZ KITCHEN

  • Loaded Hotdog

    Flying in and out of Cape Town for university, I would always make sure I make a stop at the kiosk near the boarding gates to purchase some game biltong. Almost everyone I meet is a little taken aback and confused by my choice to not eat meat (beef,...

  • Milk Tart. Heerlik!!!

    However, I don’t believe they are as popular as their counter parts, Cake Slices, Cream Doughnuts, your Madeira Cakes, etc. This is well justified by the fact that Milk tart is a very traditional South African dessert. Milk Tart/Melktert – Easy,...

  • Self- Saucing Chocolate Pudding

    Yes fine, I love the long nights and short days, cuddling up in a mooi mooi is a guilty pleasure. Soups and hearty dinawa dishes taste a lot more suitable and enjoyable. Scones or rusks with a piping hot cup of Laarger tea are perfect at any time of...

  • Stuffed. Folded. Goodness.

    Very specific classic Indian spices are used and it makes it seem as though there is a standard or generic filling. That’s not where my uneasiness lies. It’s in the symmetry of the final product that I always get a bit panicked.The perfect...

  • Phaletjhe

    There is porridge, then there is soft pap, then medium (nna ke wela ha) then there's the hard type that almost seems to break up when attended to. I might have mentioned it before in passing.I think in the house we all like soft pap while Shalom...

  • Sopo ya lephutshe?

    It's hard work peeling tough-skinned butternuts, probably made easier with good technique and tools. We don't shy away from cheats and convenience to save time, and we do advocate ready-made butternut chunks. Alternatively, try this trick...

    So when you are in a foreign place, it only makes sense to visit the sites, learn some of the local language to get by and be more personable, including treating your pallet to local cuisine in whatever proximity. Engage the chef, waiters or event...
