All we basically do every weekend in South Africa is have a BRAAI *BBQ*

We do chicken on the grill, beef steaks, pork chops, boere wors, mushroom kebabs, garlic bread wrapped in foil, potatoes wrapped in foil filled with cream cheese and bacon. and favourite AFRIKAANS DISH *Mengel pap*
Micture of maize with bacon, tomatoes, onion, mushrooms and loads of cheese mix together and let it stand on the grill for about 2 hours on not to hot heat.

Mmmmm now im hungry!!!!!:hissy::hissy::hissy:

This is what I'm making for a BBQ on Saturday. Tried and tested and totally delicious!


Jack Daniel’s Sticky Chilli Prawns

12 wooden skewers
36 raw king prawns, heads removed, shelled and de-veined
Juice of 2 limes


Marinade: 3 tablespoons clear honey
5 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon Jack Daniel's Hot Chilli BBQ sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil


1. Place 12 wooden skewers in cold water and leave them to soak for 30 minutes.

2. Place the prawns into a non-metallic dish and drizzle over the lime juice.

3. Stir well, so they are evenly coated, and leave for 5 minutes to allow the flavour to infuse.

4. Mix together the honey, soy sauce, hot chilli sauce and olive oil, and pour over the prawns.

5. Stir the mixture well so the prawns are nicely coated in the marinade. Remove the prawns and discard the marinade.

6. Remove the skewers from the water and pat dry. Thread the prawns onto the skewers, leaving space between them, and brush with oil.

7. Barbecue the skewers over direct medium heat for 4 to 7 minutes until the prawns turn pink (the exact time depends on the size of the prawns), turning once halfway through, until they are cooked through.



Spicy Chicken Kebabs


3 garlic cloves , roughly chopped
knob of fresh ginger , roughly chopped, plus extra to serve
1 orange , grated zest and juice
3 spring onions , roughly chopped
2 tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp light soy sauce
2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 small skinless boneless chicken breast fillets , cut into cubes
20 button mushrooms
20 cherry tomatoes
2 large red peppers , seeded and each cut into 10


1. Grind the garlic, ginger, orange zest and spring onions to a paste in a food processor. Add the honey, orange juice, soy sauce and oil, then blend again. Pour the mixture over the cubed chicken and leave to marinate for at least 1 hr, but preferably overnight. Toss in the mushrooms for the last half an hour so they take on some of the flavour, too.

2. Thread the chicken, tomatoes, mushrooms and peppers onto 20 wooden skewers, then cook on a griddle pan for 7-8 mins each side or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and golden brown. Turn the kebabs frequently and baste with the marinade from time to time until evenly cooked. Arrange on a platter, scatter with chopped spring onion and eat with your fingers.


Wild Rice Salad (SO yummy)

800g long-grain and wild rice, mixed together
Salt
1 red pepper, finely diced
1 green pepper, finely diced
1 small red onion, finely minced
6 button mushrooms, finely diced
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
A handful of fresh coriander, roughly chopped
A handful of flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped

For the salad dressing:
4 tbsp Olive oil
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
Grated zest and juice of 1 unwaxed lemon
1 tsp Mustard
1 tsp Honey
1 garlic clove, crushed
salt and fresh ground black pepper

1. Place the rice in a large saucepan. Cover generously with water, season with salt and bring to the boil.

2. Cover the saucepan, reduce the temperature and simmer the rice for 20 minutes until the rice is al dente. Drain the rice thoroughly in a colander and allow to cool.

3. Mix together the cooled rice, red pepper, green pepper, red onion, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, coriander and parsley.

4. Make the salad dressing by mixing together the olive oil, wine vinegar, lemon zest and juice, mustard, honey and garlic. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

5. Pour the salad dressing over the rice salad and toss through. Serve.



Chocolate Bananas

Bananas
marshmallows
chocolate


Using one banana per guest, and leaving the skin on, slice the length of the banana (but without cutting it in half).

Now take a handful of marshmallows and cut them into thin strips. Push the marshmallow strips into the slit in the banana, as if filling a baguette. Next, cut small chunks from your favourite chocolate bar (Mars bars work brilliantly with this recipe) and cram in alongside the marshmallow.

Push the banana closed (or as closed as it will go with oodles of stuffing!) and wrap in kitchen foil. Now fire up the barbecue, pre-heating to a medium temperature - and place the foil-wrapped bananas on the grill.

After about five minutes remove from the grill, and, using a mitt to protect your hands, unwrap. The chocolate and marshmallows should be melting, and the banana soft enough to eat with a spoon. Delicious!
