  • Potjie is pronounced poikie? Wonderful recipe. Thanks

  • @1fanger - You are correct. Potjie refers to the pot we use on the open fire. Cast iron pot.

    What is more important is the meal inside the pot and the company you share this with - dont forget the red wine :)

  • Thats like a beef stew, looks great.

  • @TheSonofthunder7 Yes, a stew indeed, just done on an open fire.

  • I think it is best to do the oxtail in a slow cooker for a few hours before starting the potjie. Certain meats are just tough.

  • Ek weet nie hoekom daar appelkoos konfyt moet in nie, maar dis hoe die reseppie loop. Dis dalk so effe soet smakie vir die sous, wat darem so lekker is op die rys.

  • Good job mate I will use your recipe thanks for the upload

  • you south Africa????and you moved 2 England??  you got a strong British accent im also south africa and also moved 2 london

  • Hendrik,

    I tried your recipe, and it was a moerse success! Only I used oxtail and after 4 and a half hours of potjie, it was still tough. Did I get the wrong tail or what? Overall delicious!!!!

  • Geat exibition. i am going to try your recipe, and as a Boertjie that has never cooked his own Potjie, you will be judged by it! I dont know waht is worst, being judged or the fact that I have never made a potjie. Hey, I live in America, and I am spoiled!!

  • @highig69er Hang af waar in SA jy is. Ek het altyd by die Oudtshoorn slagpale volstruisnek gekry. Weet nie of hulle dit nog doen nie. As jy in P-Town is, try die LynnPark slaghuis in Menlyn. Hy het altyd vir my volstruis gekry. Ek is nou in die VSA. Bestel volstruisnek van California. Moer duur, maar hy maak 'n lekker pot. Vat langer as oxtail om sag te word. Jy het omtrent 6 ure nodig. Gooi jou pynappelstukke in 20 minute voor jy die pot afhaal. Try ook oxtail met banana.
