Kruimelpap (Kruimelig Maïspap Brood Baksel)
Krummelpap (Crumbly Maize Porridge Bread Bake). It brings a true taste of South Africa straight to your dining table.
Ingrediënten
- 2 kopjes maize meal (mielie meal)
- 3 kopjes kokend water
- 1 tsp zout
- 2 el butter (plus extra for greasing)
- 1 kopje grated cheese (optional, for a richer bake)
- ½ kopje milk (for baking stage)
Instructies
- Make the krummelpap: bring the 3 cups of water and salt to a boil in a pot.
- Sprinkle the maize meal in slowly (don’t dump it in at once), stirring with a fork to form crumbs rather than a smooth pap.
- Lower the heat, cover, and steam gently for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally with a fork to keep the texture crumbly.
- Stir in 2 tbsp butter at the end.
- Verwarm de oven voor op 180°C.
- Grease an ovenproof dish with butter.
- Spoon half the krummelpap into the dish, sprinkle with a little cheese if using.
- Add the rest of the pap, spreading it evenly.
- Pour the milk over the top (this keeps it moist while baking).
- Sprinkle more cheese on top if you like.
- Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until the top is golden and slightly crisp.
- Serve warm as a side with stews, braai meat, or tomato smoor.
