Back!

Your companion cookbook for the latest season of Come Dine with Me South Africa, currently airing on BBC Lifestyle on Wednesdays at 20h00.

The latest episode from last week – Episode 3 (26 October) – featured four home cooks from Gauteng, with the first evening set in Midrand, hosted by Events Planner Success, who wasn’t the most successful of the night.

That honour went to picky Pam who won the R10,000 plate when she out-cooked Success, Given the Engineer and Lorna Maseko’s “bestie” Tarryn, who tried to oversell her flapjacks by calling them Puff Puffs.

These are their recipes:

NAME OF DISH ROASTED HAKE WITH CREAMY CHOWDER
MENU PREP SEQUENCE
(1st, 2nd, 3rd) 		Main
RECIPE SERVES (no of people) 4
PREPERATION TIME 50mins
INGREDIENTS Ingredients Quantity & unit
Baby Potatoes 1kg – rinsed and halved
Corn 4
Fish Stock 2 Sachets
Leeks 800g
Cashew Nuts 40g cut up pieces

Curry Powder 40ml
White Wine 200ml
Fresh Cream 200ml
Hake 4 fillets
Spinach 80g
Lemon 1
Pickled Ginger 20g
Fresh Parsley
Butter 2 knobs
METHOD 1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Spread out halved baby potatoes and the corn on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Pop in the hot oven for 30 minutes until the baby potatoes are soft and golden and the corn is charred, shifting both halfway.
2. Dilute the fish stock with 700ml of boiling water. Cut the leeks in half and rinse thoroughly. Roughly chop half of them into chunks and set this half aside. Finely slice the other half, keeping them separate. Place the cashew pieces in a pot over a medium heat and toast for 5 minutes, until golden, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan set aside. Roughly chop the cashews further, when its cool enough to handle.
3. Return the pot to a high heat with a knob of butter. When hot, sauté the finely sliced leeks for 2-3 minutes until soft (keep the roughly chopped leeks for later). Add three-quarters of the curry powder to taste and fry for a minute or so. Mix in the white wine, then simmer for a minute or so. Stir through the cream and diluted stock. Lower the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes until thick.
4. When the corn is done from the oven, slice the kernels off the cob. In the last 5 minutes of simmer time, add the kernels to the pot. Season to taste and remove from the heat. (I usually add a little more salt here).
5. Place the hake fillets on a lightly greased baking tray. Coat in oil, seasoning, and the remaining curry powder. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until cooked through.
6. Place a pan over a medium heat with some oil. When hot, sauté the remaining leeks for 5 minutes until lightly charred. Add the rinsed spinach and cook for a further 5 minutes. Stir in some lemon juice to taste and remove from the heat.
7. To plate, first add roasted baby potatoes alongside the sautéed leeks and baby spinach. Cover this with the creamy chowder and place the hake fillet on top. Garnish with the chopped parsley, toasted cashews, and the chopped pickled ginger.
