Amakhekhe
Say what? Amakhekhe are scones, similar to the English variety but just larger. These proudly South African treats are glazed with a jam that gives them their distinctive colour. Traditionally, they are served as is, without any jam or cream.
West Coast seafood soup

Bacon and egg gatsby
Now if this isn’t a breakfast for champions, we don’t know what is. A good old proudly South African gatsby doesn’t have to be as plain as meat, slap chips and tomato sauce.

We don’t know how much more we can say about this winter warmer. Let us show you how to make your own pizza dough from scratch and then use it to put together this local is lekker boerewors pizza, spiced up with Peppadews, red onion and chutney.
Lamb and apricot sosaties
We love Cape Malay flavours and we bring them to life in these lovely lamb and apricot sosaties. We have all the classic flavours of coriander, turmeric and cinnamon. And if you can’t get hold of Turkish apricots, simply buy some normal dried apricots and peaches and soak them in warm water for 20 minutes to get that plumped effect.

Behind the scenes at Vrede en Lust Estate with Chef Johan van Schalkwyk
Compared to most chefs, Johan may have had a bit of a late start, only entering the industry when he was 28. He started out as a chef at a chateau in France, where he fondly remembers the time spent wandering through the kitchen garden, a basket of vegetables and herbs on his forearm, carefully picking fresh produce for the day. These days, Johan heads up the kitchen at Vrede en Lust’s Lust Bistro & Bakery, cooking and baking (make sure that you taste the sourdough!) fresh and fuss-free fare at one of the most renowned eateries in the foodie centre of Franschhoek.
