I promised a friend a while ago I will be sharing my recipe for this cookie. Hertzoggies is a South African traditional coconut-meringue based cookie which is baked in two stages with an apricot centre! The name derives from General Hertzog, South Africa’s prime minister during the period 1924 - 1939. It was recovered that he absolutely loved these as his teatime treat. First the pastry is pre-baked in the oven to form a shell for the filling to sit in. Then apricot jam is added and afterwards the coconut-meringue mixture are placed back in the oven to brown. Good news! There is a video-tutori ..read more

Making spring rolls in the hope that spring will come faster than advertised #overthiswinter. By adding small edible flowers to the spring rolls, you not only create visually beautiful food, but they state a plate of freshness, colour and taste. The ingredients are vegan, but should you wish, chicken and seafood can be added. I have tried to fry them afterwards and they held their shape very well. Served with the peanut sauce makes it even more tastier, round and full of flavour. Not a fan of peanuts? Replace the sauce with a sticky sweet and sour sauce instead.
