I made this delicious boerewors braai pie on Expresso this morning. The recipe is the brainchild of Stephanie Louw (food stylist on Expresso). Suzelle inspired her but she made it her own by adding the holy trilogy braaibroodjie flavours: tomato (pesto), onions and cheese. Then she added another SA favourite – braaied boerewors! Its super-super lekker and so easy to make.

Boerewors braaibroodjie pie
(Recipe by Stephanie Louw)
500g boerewors, braaied, keep in its coil
1 pk puff pastry, defrosted
125 ml tomato pesto
½ onion sliced, sautéed with 1 chopped garlic clove
10 ml smoked paprika
Salt and pepper
125 ml grated cheddar
125 ml feta, crumbed
Olive oil for brushing
Braai the boerewors and set aside to cool. Prepare some coals – not too hot – the same that you will use for making braaibroodjies. Roll puff pastry out. Spread pesto on one half, then top with onion and garlic mixture. Place boerewors on top, season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Top with cheeses. Fold one half over the filling and pinch to close. Place on a braai grid and close gently. Do not latch it. Cook over the coals for 15 minutes, turning regularly. Cut into wedges and serve
