Steri Stumpie Pancake

Steri Stumpie Pancake

Steri Stumpie is a popular South African flavoured milk drink that comes in 350ml bottles. The South African chef Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen caused a stir when he cooked a pancake from this drink. Now is your chance to give it a try…

1 x 350ml Steri Stumpie of your choice, for one pancake

Pour the flavoured milk in to a frying pan set over a medium heat.
Bring to a simmer and wait……
Regulate the heat so that the milk cooks/evaporates but does not burn.
As long as the “pancake” sits/sticks to the pan, it is not cooked.
Remove from the heat once done and puff/fold into an interesting abstract shape.
Enjoy with another Steri Stumpie to wash it down????

Milk Sweets

Milk Sweets

These milk sweets are absolutely delicious! The recipe is for less sweet treats but can be made sweeter by adding 15ml extra sugar.

250ml + 250ml milk
50g cornstarch
50g granulated sugar
250ml desiccated coconut

Line a container that is about 20cm x 14cm with baking paper.

Pour 250ml milk into a small bowl and add the cornstarch.
Whisk together until the cornstarch has dissolved. Set aside.
Pour the other 250ml milk into a small saucepan and add the sugar.
Place over medium-low heat and cook for 3-4 minutes while stirring.
The milk should be warm but it should not come to the boil.
Now, whisk the cornstarch mixture while slowly pouring it into the saucepan.
Stir continuously for about 4 minutes until the mixture is very thick.
Pour the mixture into the prepared container and allow to cool completely – about 2 hours.
Add the desiccated coconut to a shallow bowl.
Lift the milk pudding out of the container with the paper and cut into small squares.
Roll each square in the coconut to coat.
Keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
