Recipe Ingredients

  • 60 ml SPAR Butter
  • 45 ml freshly chopped Coriander

Recipe Method

  1. Remove all packaging and braai chicken on a grid over a hot fire or gas braai.  Turn occasionally and baste with the left over marinade.  Braai for about 25 minutes or until the chicken is heated through.  There are also roasting and microwave instructions on the packaging.
  2. For the mealies: Mix the Butter, Coriander and Paprika together.
  3. Pull the husks of the mealies back. Rub the 4 mealies with the flavoured butter and then braai over medium to hot coals turning frequently until cooked.  Alternatively oven roast at 180 for approximately 20 minutes.  Remove all husks if oven roasting.
  4. Serve dollops of the Flavoured butter over the hot braaied mealies.
  5. For the Butternut Chips and baby Marrow: Combine the SPAR butter, cinnamon, cumin and honey.  Rub over the butternut chips and baby marrows.  Wrap in foil and oven bake or braai for about 20 minutes until soft and cooked through.
