Also known as Mielietert in South Africa, it is popular in Southern-style cooking. This creamy and moist bread is great on its own with a dollop of butter or eaten as a side dish to a roast or of course…. a braai. There won’t be any leftovers for the next day, that’s a fact!
This sweetcorn bake, Lily’s Sweetcorn bake is even more special as we celebrate our South African heritage because we ran a competition amongst our team to get their family favourites.
Lily is a hot food specialist based at our head office in Cape Town.
