Lockdown treat time with Forever Warmbaths

Limpopo, South Africa – During this lockdown, with more time spent at home, many have explored hobbies they could do from the comfort of their own home. One hobby that increased was cooking and baking delicious meals to share together as a family. We spoke to the Banqueting Team at Forever Warmbaths as part of our #TogetherFOREVER campaign to hear what recipes they suggest we try out at home, or at our next holiday destination.  

Scrumptious Burger Braai Broodjie

You will need: 

  • 6 homemade burger patties
  • 12 slices of bread
  • Soft butter
  • Sliced tomato Grated cheddar cheese
  • Thinly sliced red onion Chutney  

Method:

Use a hinged grid and pre-cook your burger patties on the braai for 8 to 10 minutes (you can also cook them in a pan on the stove if the weather is too cold outside).

Spread butter on the outside of your bread slices. 

Spread a layer of Chutney on the inside of your bread slices, and then place your burger patty on the Chutney and top with tomatoes, onions and cheese. 

Close the burger with the other slice of bread and butter on the outside.

Place the burger braai broodjies into the hinged grid and braai over medium coals.  

Turn the grid often, you want the cheese to melt and the bread to toast.

Remove the burger braai broodjies from the grid, slice in half and serve warm.       


Chocolate mug cake

You will need:

  • 35g (1/3 cup) plain flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon Nutella or mini chocolate chips
  • 60ml milk 

Method:

Mix all dry ingredients in a large microwave-safe mug. 

Add in the wet ingredients and mix well until there are no lumps. 

Add the Nutella or chocolate chips on top of the mixture in the centre. 

Put mug in the microwave for 70 seconds.

Optional: you can add a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream to the mug cake or dust with icing sugar.  


Seriously yummy pancakes

You will need:

  • 100g self-raising flour
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 4 × 15ml milk
  • Pinch of salt 

Method:

Mix all the dry ingredients together.

Add egg

Beat it the milk, 15ml at a time. 

Heat up a pan on the stove on a medium to low heat (don’t add any oil).

Pour about 1/2 cup of mixture in the pan. When you see air bubbles forming on the top of the pancake, you can turn them over. 

Serve with cinnamon and sugar, syrup, honey, whipped cream, ice-cream, mincemeat, cheese or chicken mayo.  


Sticky Marshmallow Pies

You will need:

  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • 1 packet of marshmallows
  • 6 cups of Kellogg’s rice Krispies cereal 

Method:

In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. 

Add marshmallows and stir slowly until completely melted, once melted remove from the heat.

Add Kellogg’s rice Krispies cereal and stir until well coated with the melted marshmallows.

Using a buttered spatula press mixture flat into a baking tray coated with cooking spray or butter. 

Let the mixture cool and cut into squares. 

Optional: you can add some food colouring to the melted marshmallow before adding the cereal to make any colour you want. Before it cools down you can sprinkle chopped nuts, baking glitter or grated chocolate over the top.
