  • 8 slices of thick white bread or sourdough
  • 2 cups grated cheddar or mature gouda
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • Butter, for spreading
  • Optional: tomato slices or pickled jalapeños
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 green pepper, chopped
  • 1 carrot, grated

Make the Chakalaka:

  1. Sauté: Heat oil in a pan. Add the onion, green pepper, and garlic. Cook until soft.
  2. Spice it up: Add curry powder, paprika, and chili flakes. Stir for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Add veg: Toss in the grated carrot, then stir in the baked beans.
  4. Simmer: Let it cook for 10–15 minutes until thick and well combined. Season to taste.

Build the Braaibroodjies:

  1. Prep the bread: Butter one side of each slice of bread. On the unbuttered side, layer chakalaka, grated cheese, sliced onion, and a piece of boerewors.
  2. Close the sandwich: Top with another slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
  3. Grill: Place the sandwiches in a braai grid or a sandwich press. Grill over medium coals or in a pan until the bread is crisp and golden, and the cheese is melted (about 3–5 minutes per side).
