Braaibroodjies to blow your mind
Not all braaibroodjies are created equal but you can be sure that these ones by Abigail Donnelly, Food Director of TASTE, will hit the spot. They’re loaded with secret ingredients to boost the yum factor.
Ingredients:
- White bread: 8 slices
- Cheddar cheese:1 cup, grated
- Mozzarella cheese: 1 cup, grated
- Tomato: 8 slices
- Onion: 8 slices
- White pepper, to taste
- Onion salt, to taste
- Softened butter: 6 tablespoons
- Good-quality mayonnaise: 4 tablespoons
Method:
- Divide the cheese between 4 slices of bread, then top the cheese with the tomato and onion.
- Season with white pepper and onion salt. Top with the remaining slices of bread.
- Butter the outside of the sandwiches, then spread with mayo.
- Place in a braai sandwich grid and cook over medium coals on both sides until golden brown and the cheese is oozing. If you’re making them on the stovetop, cook in a cast-iron pan over a medium heat. Finish off in the oven if the cheese is not fully melted.
