What is your favourite traditional meal from your home country?
Don't know if it's traditional for germany (I think it is), but my dads potato stew. Probably my favourite food in the world.
Frankfurt Grüne Soße, what is kind of a herb joghurt with around 7 traditional herbs from the region, actually heaps of em thinly cut and mixed with joghurt, mustard and salt/pepper, usually served with potatos and cooked eggs.
Hmm, As a swede i like my meatballs, but the all time favourite is pickled herring w potatoes, sourcream and chives.
@Andres Lindholm Swedish meatballs are fantastic! And I also eat quite a bit of pickled herring, it is a treat for me
Well you made it in this vid, but also a Durbs bunny chow or a bobotie and definitely definitely definitely......... Malva pudding
Man you saved yourself on that stirring, South Africans will lose their mind if you mess around and stir a Potjie, great video man ❤️
“I love cooking with wine, sometimes I even put it in the food”
Spoken like a true follower of Keith Floyd!
Don - LOL :-)
South Africa wine is so good and cheap. Not UK at £10bt
Lolololololol
We are expats from South Africa living in Huntseville, Texas for the past 33 years. I have my #3 Pot now for 53 years and never stop using it. I really like this video so have subscribed to be a part of your community. Very nice indeed.
Welkom!
Other than the obvious, is there any difference between the pot with or without the legs? Can one with the legs be used on a big burner?
Some South African traditions will never die.
Sir, I just made a version of this for my family after watching this video.
I don't have a backyard since I'm in an apartment for a few more weeks until we close on our house, but I do have a crock pot. So, I kinda faked it out and made it in there.
I used chicken thighs, onions, celery, shredded carrots, zucchini, yellow squash, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, chicken broth and white wine topped with a thick layer of moisture-holding cabbage leaves.
Let me tell ya, it was delicious. Even my boy who is notorious for picking out veggies, had a second helping. This is now a new Hazelip family favorite around here.
Thank you for posting this. It was a great tutorial video and I had fun playing around with it.
That is great to hear! Really happy you and your family enjoyed it!
Wait until you've made enough of em, eventually you figure out that the veggies are the REAL star of the potjie.
I love that! This also looks like a fantastic meal for a large camping party!
It also reminds me *slightly* of an Irish stew recipe my mother taught me - alternating layers of lamb, sliced potatoes, onions, and cabbage, with salt and pepper to taste as well (at least 2 layers of each). Add a little liquid (water, beer, wine, stock or broth...) and let it simmer for a few hours. It's that simple, no browning or other steps required.
Again, looks fantastic and I can't wait to try it!
That sounds amazing too 😋
Wow. I've been back in UK since 2000. This really takes me back. I'm off to get myself a potjie pot. Expensive but will last. Thanks man good memories have returned.
I'm really enjoying your videos. My husband is from SA and I am British, he has been over in the UK for around 13 years. I'm trying to learn more recipes to bring things he loved from home back into his life. So thank you for this channel :)
Cheers Boet, you do South Africa proud even though you, not living here anymore, you do more to promote South Africa than most, I know that Africa still runs through your veins strongly, keep up the good work.
Thanks Llewellyn. Part of my heart will always be in Africa!
"Potjiekos is not a meal. It's a social event."
Same thing with 'churrasco' here in Brazil. Hahahaha!
I love how the chopping montages have got more and more extreme, my favourite bits of the cooking vids!
I was just going to write the same thing. You've got to love a chilli chump stop cut chop!
Best signature move. One of many reasons to love this fella.
Poor technique
Another brilliant video. Love the passion you have for your South African dishes, great viewing.
Looks like true soul food to me!
Thank you very much and all the best!
That looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing, will try if I can get my hands on one of those pots
This looks amazing. Definitely gonna try this someday this summer
I am definitely trying this. Thanks for the awesome vids as always.
Jis dis nou lekker. We were gonna potjie this weekend but waiting till next week. Im doing Chicken and my friend beef.
Mooi man, fokken mooi.
Enjoy! We all jealous here
@@turbocpt1 you speaking in tongues?
Oh my god.... taste of home! That was 26 years ago.
I'm going to buy a potjie. Learned to do this when I was 5, I still got it
I just made it in a flat wide 9 quart Dutch oven and it worked awesome.
Wow man, thanks for sharing this. Your videos get better and better.
I love to see how different potties are made across the country! Thanks for posting!
Wow tried your recipe out today! It’s divine thanks so much for sharing!
Absolutely love it when you share your cultural heritage and pride in the food you grew up with. Subbed immediately and will now scour the web for my own Falkirk cast iron pot. Thanks bra
I love the videos where you share your recipes. Ive tried almost everyone of them (Piri-Piri chicken has become a family favourite). Will definitely try this one!
that looks amazing... thank you for sharing this recipe.
Made this recipe for a camp. Was splendid and the potjie pot was cleaned. Thanks for sharing.
I can't imagine life without a potjie and friends 😍 love you South Africa 😍
Love it. I lived in the more rural part of Northern Cape for 18months a few years back and the local meat was absolutely spectacular. But for all the delicious antelope cuts I tried while there nothing ever beat a good lamb potjie dinner with some bread fresh from the braai.
I loved this video, what a great tradition! I'll be trying this on the fire pit for sure. Thanks for sharing this.
Followed this recipe tonight (with beef) for our first Potjiekos, it turned out great. We really appreciate it!
This is such a cool idea, I'd love to try my hand at making this when I get some free time
That looks absolutely fabulous! Nicely done!!!
Great content , loved the fast forward veg prep, I am going to give this a try sometime thanks
I dont stop recommending ur poijie recipe.... thank you.
Ur a legend
Looks delicious. As soon as they come out with smell-o-vision, I'm getting it. Cheers from Canada :-)
I love cooking outdoors even in the winter time it’s so primitive and takes me back to our roots
This is the bushiness I swear. I its so good it will transcend all cultures.
This made me crave some lekker potjikos now. Especially since we are in the middle of winter as well. Awesome recipe as well :)
This looks fantastic. I just need this special bowl 😃 which some of my friends have.
*OMG It looks fantastic! Delicious! Greetings from Poland Bro :)*
I really enjoyed the chopping time lapse and enjoy your videos in general keep up the good work
I swear I must have been South African in a past life because the idea of food prep in the morning, cooking the late morning, beer and braai with family and friends in the afternoon and finally the main event in the evening just sounds like utter utter heaven to me!!
Saved for later, will try this. Looks deliciouse
Made a potjie last weekend and making another one for my wife's birthday next weekend. The softness over everything and how the flavours infuse is just awesome!! Ek klap my potjiekos lekker!
Seems like a lovely tradition! I enjoyed the video.
Top notch quality content. Good job!!
I am also from SA and we got our Gran to bring over our Potjie pot when she came over to visit. haha, love a Potjie and the event it brings with it.
Been subscribed since you were about 60k so good to see you getting in 6 figures love the stuff you upload.
Thank you Brad!
Lovely, thank you for sharing.
A cast iron pot lid can also double as a moering tool, when you have relatives or "friends" who throws bread, pasta or cheese into a potjie.
Cheese? Nee fok boet. Have you never made a biltong and cheese potjie. Seems I need to start my own cooking videos as well...
Love it, will defiantly try one when i go to cape town this year
Oh man that looks awesome...I'm gonna have to make that.
I've definitely gotta make this. Have never heard of Potjiekos, but it looks fantastic.
It goes deep, pudding, bread et al.
I'm genuinely going to buy a Falkirk cast iron pot just to make this, thanks for the recipe/cooking video, it looks and sounds amazing!
Good luck finding one! They're still the best!
We absolutely loved this video we look forward to making it thank you we are watching your videos one after another 😂 thank you again
I grew up eating potjie because my best friend is South African. This brings huge waves of nostalgia and I feel like I can smell it through the screen!
We had Potjiekos in South Africa in Vanderbijlpark when we visited my brother; they've been great and I'm missing it and my brother and his family. I made them here in the US and it tastes as good
Your video inspired me to make my first potjiekos this past weekend. Lamb isn't common in my part of the USA so I used beef, and a bit different spice package than yours, but the rest was basically the same. It was excellent! I look forward to making more.
Thanks very much for starting me on my potjiekos adventure.
Love that you threw in a solid zaffer "helluva" in the beginning there 🤣
Epic potjie there man - brilliantly explained the intricacies and the end result looked amazing.
Introduce those British neighbours to some smileys and walkie-talkies next 😁
I made an Oxtail Potjie end of last Year today i will try your Recipe , Thanks Chillichump :) i must agree its really a great meal , happiness
Thanks for the video, that potjie looks amazing
I am using my CrockPot slow cooker to make this for dinner today. The smell is awesome!
Did it turn out with a crock pot?
Nothing beats this.. The dishing out is very important....
This looks amazing. I have a big cast iron dutch oven which would probably suffice. My face broke into a big grin at the high speed chopping! :)
It reminds me Hungarian Bogracs dish which I love. My family in Poland are using something similar like this pot just the top lid locks firmly. Delicious stuff!
kind eyes, nice voice, excellent insight about your fermenting, sauces and cookin' skills. keep up the good work bruv. much love
Typical: a Bestduty pot with a Falkirk lid. Many of us have the same, probably got mixed up at a lekker kuier :-)
That looks delicious!!
I’ve never tried any South African dishes but make biltong often and it’s a favourite of friends and family.
Time to try some cooking I think 😉
Thank you for sharing 👍🏻
Thanks Kev! It really is delicious, and there are many other recipes too for different Potjies (I will share some more in the future!)
By the way, have you had a look at my biltong making vid? ruclips.net/video/LUPZt_cvuaM/видео.html
that looks incredible
I must try this!
Great video!!! thank you so much!!!
Thanx for sharing...
I live in Israel and miss this so much... u are so right. Family wise we used to make early BRAAI snack nd have poijei later on ....
Thanx brother u baught back some memories...
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I’ve been cooking on my Cobb grill outside for years, I first had Potjiekos curry at a South African restaurant in Spain a few years ago. Now about to take the plunge and buy a Potjie as I have seen some use one on a Cobb. Your recipe looks really tasty so I will give it a bash. Thanks 😊
thank you so much for that recipe..my chilli chump seeds are growing nicely..can't wait to see the fruit..northern Ontario Canada...started indoor...planting on june 20 on the summer solstace.
it's only 2 Celsius last night..had to bring them all in after acclimatizing them for a week on my deck..... not risking my beautiful pepper plants
i'm definitely trying this ptjiekos
Thank you very much for this fantastic recipe. I took beef instead of lamb and it was a great experience. The Garam Massala was very interesting and it smelled fantastic, what madevit hard to wait. I also had to use some bricks to keep my Dutch oven closed 😀 best wishes from Germany
Thanks for letting me know Torsten! Really glad you enjoyed it my friend.
I got a potjie for Christmas and I am looking forward to using it. 👍cheers
The best by far❤❤
I loved these when I visited South Africa!
I love the way you nerrate the process..the no nonsense kind... amazing recipe.. thanks for posting! Subscribed n liked...
Thank you! And Welcome to my channel!
Great content mate!
Damn man I could smell that through my TV. Dit lyk moer lekker!!
Well done and props to your dad.
I'm watching this at ten to seven on a Sunday morning fighting the urge to rush out and buy a cast iron pot. That looks delicious.
Dont let your dreams remain dreams! Do it!!
Amazing
Looks delicious mate!
Subbed, really cool videos 🙂🙂🙂
Looks awesome 😊👍🏻
Love the @home mortar and pestle haha! Lekker man!
Laughed out loud when you chopped the veggies 🤣🤣🤣❤🇲🇿 new Subie
I am south african and watching this from mzansi, thank you for your lekker videos, I will be making your recipes.
I finally made it today after watching your video about 10 times. I used goat meat and beef stock instead of wine. I used braai rub spices. It was out of this world! Thanks.
Excellent! So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing this. Your recipe looks amazing! Going to make it for my fiancée! She's from SA and introduced me to braai-ing & biltong! She's going to be so happy when I make this in the near future. In trade I've shown her American BBQ/smoked meats which she's taken fondly to. Cannot wait to visit SA again and bring some of that with me to share with those wonderful folks!
Come down, man.Always space at the fireplace for one, two more.
Love the Potjie content! Certainly would enjoy to see your cleaning and care tips. I’m an american but love any style of slow cooked food. You S. Africans really know your braai, boere and outdoor cooking! Much respect.
fantastic recipe
Greetings from Philippines.Just recently i Subcribed to your channel.I love watching your videos.One day i will try to cook this,it looks delicious.Thank you for sharing.
Baie nice, looks yummy
Awesome
The pot is indeed a staple of every SA and Zim home. Im 50 and remember going to the village as a kid and my granny had those pots. My has a few
Wush i ciuld bring some to the uk for my own use
You can get hold of them in the UK! A few websites offer them.
Thanks for the video, found a new pot for our cast iron collection. Might be my Father's Day present lol.
Great job bud.
Awesome, Sean - TY,TY,TY - as a Zimbabwean (now Dutch) married to a Dutchman and living in the Netherlands, we also moved here ten years ago, with 2 kids, 2 dogs and a handful of dreams and soooo miss the trad Zimbo and ZA cuisine! The recipe and correct pronounciation thereof was appreciated greatly - puhleeeeeze boerwors, biltong and Durban curry would go down a treat also sosaties and a real, good home-made bobotie (Knorr just doesn't cut it!) would hit the spot just as well - God Bless, thank goodness we found you, a breath of fresh air from the same neighbourhood! XxxX Eet smaakelijk!
Thank you Ilse! I will certainly be doing more traditional African cuisine in the future...but in the meantime, you are in luck...have a look at my bobotie recipe! ruclips.net/video/6tZg5eka3uo/видео.html
Well done chillichump; coming into winter in the South - time to klap the potjies now...my fav is also lamb, but will give your spice mix a go.
