Product Information

Potjiekos is cooked slowly ( 2 to 3 hours) with moderate heat. (Plan well as this dish does not like to be rushed.) Curry and Yellow Rice Potjie. Make two potjies at the same time over coals that keep the pot simmering and serve with tomatoes and banana.

Make sure the fire is small, yet effective. And the coals should preferably not be placed directly underneath, but rather on the outside of the potjie’s legs. Too much heat will certainly burn the food.

Enamel, cast-iron and pre-cured potjie pots all have different methods of correctly preparing them when you first buy one - as well as how to best clean your specific potjie of choice.

Potjiekos" is a traditional Afrikaner dish hailing from South Africa. It originated with the Voortrekkers in the 1800's and is still widely prepared and enjoyed in South Africa today. It is a simple dish, easy to prepare, with few 'rules' but hundreds of variants. When done properly a "potjie" needs little to no supervision and practically prepares itself. It thus allows you time to enjoy the company of your friends and family while preparing the meal. "Potjiekos", translated would mean 'Little Pot' (potjie) 'Food' (kos) and although it resembles a stew it is not a stew and is not prepared like a stew.

Some potjie products have been created to allow for easier cleaning, while others develop seasoning over time which can add amazing flavour to your product in the long term - but can also cause unwanted flavours when not cared for correctly. The difference in a stew to a potjie pot is that you would never stir the potjie pot. It would simmer and allows the flavors to stew. It is also cooked very slowly for a few hours over a low heat of coals.

The best part about a potjie is that it allows you to cook your meals for very long times as they can withstand heat extremely well. The lids provide the perfect cooking pressure to allow your food to slowly cook without burning. The number of servings will also of course depend on how hungry your guests are, how many side dishes you are making and what types of meat or vegetables you use. But generally speaking - you can use the sizes above to help you plan which pot to buy and to help you prepare your meals ahead of time.

They then put the lid on and do not lift again until the dish is done. Cooks would listen to the slight bubbling and simmering of the "potjie" by hold a ear close to the lid. This is called listening to the "potjie" talk. The cook listens and then control the heat at the bottom of the "potjie". While holding an ear close to the side of the lid, (be careful not to let escaping steam burn you) the cook should hear a slight bubbling with a bubble every second or two. A rapidly boiling "potjie" is a recipe for disaster. What you should hear is a slight bubble as if the food is simmering. You should never hear something boiling or rapidly bubbling as "potjiekos" is prepared slowly over moderate heat. Adjust the heat source until you hear the desired sound. Remember that it takes a few minutes, sometimes up to 10, before the "potjie" will respond to heat adjustment. For first-time use, wash the inside of your potjie with a mixture of dishwashing liquid and boiling hot water. Coat the inside of the potjie with cooking oil and heat it until the oil begins to smoke. Then wipe clean with a paper towel. Your potjie is ready to cook. A "potjie". (Traditionally it would be a three legged cast iron pot but frequently is flat bottomed. The cast iron is needed because you need a heavy lid to create a slight pressure cooker effect inside the pot but you could actually use a normal pot as well. ) In the International Phonetic Alphabet ( IPA) "potjiekos" is pronounced poiki:kos however for those of us who do not know IPA here is a layman's pronunciation explanation. Its P for pig followed by K OI without the K, then KEY then K then T OSS without the T so all together it should be POI-KEY-KOSS, "potjiekos". Vaseline Petroleum Jelly combines all of these properties in one convenient, flip-cap jar. Regular use of this hypoallergenic moisturiser will help you gently care for your skin and maintain smooth, deeply moisturised skin.
