Braaibroodjies
The braaibroodjie is the South African version of the toasted sandwich, ideal for placating hungry children who are tired of waiting for the men to finally stop talking and start cooking the meat.
There are two opposing schools of methodology: the one ties the sandwich – filled with cheese, tomato and onion – with string like a parcel; the other wouldn’t dream of it.
