Savoury Vetkoek

A friend used to say: ‘Everything deep fried tastes wonderful’. These vetkoeks are no exception. Made with our Beef Bolognaise or Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce they are a winner! While making them I had to bat away the tasting vultures! Vetkoek is one of my fond childhood memories, a true traditional South African indulgence.

Ina’s Tip

For the campers

Measure the flour, baking powder and Seasoning into a small plastic bag to make a pre-mix, ready to add the egg, Pasta Sauce and water when ready to fry.

Method:

Mix the flour, baking powder and Seasoning together in a mixing bowl using your fingers. Add the egg and Pasta Sauce and rinse out the pasta bottle with the water. Mix until everything is blended together to form a sticky dough of a dropping consistency. Add oil to the pan to a depth of 2½ - 3 cm. Heat the oil over moderate heat. Drop tablespoonful of batter into the hot oil and fry both sides of vetkoek until golden brown.
