A nice vetkoek (fatcake) with soup for dinner.

Hello everyone. Is me again😉🥰💕how does everyone doing today? Was a busy weekend. Last week Thursday we went to Kimberly to go to the doctors. We only came back on Sunday and my son was booked of for a week But everything went well though. He was just a little bit sick but doing better now. And you guys know how it is with a sick child in the house 🙃🤔

Today im writing about the vetkoek and soup recipe. I know that you guys would like to have the recipe. I will give a nice recipe that i use and its very tasty.

My recipe that I use for that vetkoek is easy to make.

RECIPE FOR THE VETKOEK(FATCAKE)

4 cups of cake flour
1 packet of yeast
1 table spoon of oil
1 table spoon of vinegar
1 tea spoon of salt
1 table spoon of sugar
1 and a half cups of lukewarm water

First step is to take 4 cups of cake flour add it to a bowl

Next up I used a packet of yeast. If you dont have cake flour, you can use selfraising flour without the yeast. But I always use cake flour and a packet of yeast. Its just raises better. 😉Take a packet of yeast add it to the flour add the salt oil and vinegar also to the flour. Add a table spoon of sugar.

Add the water to the mixture and knee with your hands until it makes a nice dough 😉

Make sure that you leave the dough to rise up for about 2 hours. After two hours kneed it again a little bit. 😊

I kneed the dough on the table and when it was done and right i added it back into the bowl. Then i covered it with a plastic bag and then outside the sun ☀ was still very nice and hot. I took the bowl and also covered a thick blanket so that the dough will rise up nicely 😃

Well now my vetkoek (fatcake ) dough are ready and now i can start baking it. 😀

I took a cup and made some circles with the dough.

In a pan i add some oil to fry the vetkoek in. Make sure the oil are hot to fry.

Now my vetkoek (fatcake) are done. Ready to eat.

Now to start with the soup it was a mixture of vegetables and i used some soup mix.

I add alot of water to a pot and add the soup mix.

I cooked some meat aside it was lamb stew when it was soften i cut it up into pieces.

I brought some vegetables, I couldn't find the soup mix vegetables it was already sold out. So i used the stew mix vegetables. In the packet was many kinds of vegetables.

There was carrots so i grated the carrots.

There was pieces of pumpkin in and also potatoes. I cut up everything add it to the soup.

After everything was soft and done i added a packet of brown onion soup cook for 10 minutes and it was done.

I add some apricot jam on my vetkoek and then we had a nice dinner.
