Bunny Chow

Leave a comment

Spicy lamb Bunny Chow originated in South Africa, in Durmas area. And then spread throughout the region from there. Today it is served in many European Restaurants and in many homes of “Afrikaans” as a staple food. And I see why, it is absolutely delicious! 

What is Bunny Chow anyway? Well it’s a curry that is traditionally made with Lamb or Mutton or just Vegetables and then it is put inside a loaf of bread for serving.

History tells the tale of some Indian sugar plantation workers that started to take this food to work daily in a loaf of bread with (no plate) and from there it just took off as one of South Africans famous foods.

Today this recipe has become a hit in Europe and beyond. I prefer to make this recipe and then place it into “Crusty Bread” as opposed to the traditional “Bunny Bread” which is a plain soft white bread.

Of course this is my personally preferences, you can choose to prepare it either way! And do not be afraid to eat this one with your hands either, that is how it’s done.

Traditional Beef and Cheese Lasagna

Leave a comment

This Traditional Beef and Cheese Lasagna reminds me of something my Mother use to make me. 

This is more of a traditional recipe for Italian lasagna and is my all time favorite way to make homemade lasagna hands down. 

Good food that lasts until next day was always something my Mother aims for. 

And this recipe is one of those dishes!

HOW TO MAKE LASAGNA RECIPE

  • First you will want to get your hands on some fresh basil for this lasagna, along with the right types of cheeses.
  • All which is very important in making a traditional lasagna.
  • For the cheeses you will want are Ricotta, Fresh Mozzarella and some Edam cheese. 
  • The Edam cheese will give this lasagna it’s nice crust.
  • Also Ricotta cheese for the inside works so good.

CAN LASAGNA BE MADE WITHOUTH RICOTTA CHEESE

Yes, you can substitute for cottage cheese if you like. It is just not as traditional! 

WILL LASAGNA NOODLES COOK IN THE OVEN

Yes, but you must pre cook them on the stove top first in boiling water. 

Then lay place them in layers between the sauce and cheese and hamburger before baking. 

This will in turn leave you will a moist yet firm and perfectly browned lasagna.

That is sure to impress even the pickets of lasagna eaters.

Give it a try and let me know what you think 🙂

Check out how perfect this Lasagna turned out.

The crust is browned to perfection!

And the cheese is oozing from everywhere, that is a perfect Lasagna to me.

Serve this Lasagna alongside a Homemade Cesar Salad with Dressing.

And you will be eating like the Italians in Provence!
