A Delicious Braai Dish
Spicy Chakalaka Potato Bake
A South African braai wouldn’t be the same without the perfect side dish, right? Well, why not take your braai up a notch with this Spicy Chakalaka Potato Bake; a delicious spicy twist on the traditional potato bake. This dish is a super tasty accompaniment for any meaty meal as well as a great option for our much-loved vegetarian guests.
Serves: 6 people
Preparation time: 20 minutes
#TIP: Peel and slice the potatoes the night before your braai, luncheon or dinner party. Store the slices in a bowl of water (make sure the water completely covers your potatoes). This will cut your prep time in half and gives you more time to spruce your place up a bit!
