Breakfast Braai recipe

Jan Braai, the man behind South Africa’s National Braai Day initiative, shares his delicious & simple Breakfast Braai recipe.

The braaibroodjie (braaied toasted sandwich) is arguably the highlight of any braaing experience. Many South Africans braai meat simply as an excuse to also have braaibroodjies. The traditional braaibroodjie is done by making a sandwich with cheese (I prefer aged cheddar), tomato, onion, chutney, salt & pepper with butter on the outside.

Ingredients:

  • cheese (I prefer aged cheddar)
  • tomato
  • onion
  • chutney
  • salt & pepper
  • butter
  • eggs (baked sunny side up in a pan)

Method:

Braai this sandwich in a closed grid over very mild coals until the outsides are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

If you’re having a breakfast braai then bake some eggs sunny side up in a pan on the braai or stove, and when your braaibroodjies are finished gently pull them open and insert one egg into each.

You now have a breakfast braaibroodjie.
