South Africa is a tapestry of flavours — and food is where our cultures truly intertwine 🧡🇿🇦✨
Sweet, golden pampoenkoekies with a modern salted caramel twist… absolutely irresistible 😍🔥
Here’s how to make them ⬇️

Prep Time: ~15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Serves: 4–6

Ingredients:
• 1 cup pumpkin or butternut, steamed, drained + mashed
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup plain flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
• 1 tsp curry powder, cinnamon or cardamom (optional)
• ½ tsp salt
• 4 cups vegetable oil (for frying)

Salted Caramel Sauce:
• 350 ml double cream
• 150 g salted butter
• 300 g light brown sugar
• Pinch of salt

Method:
Mix all fritter ingredients until combined; set aside while heating the oil.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high.
Test with a small spoonful of batter — it should brown in 8–10 seconds.
Drop spoonfuls into the hot oil; fry 2–3 minutes until golden.
Remove + drain on kitchen paper.

Method — Salted Caramel Sauce:
Add butter + sugar to a saucepan; heat until sugar dissolves.
Slowly add the cream while stirring.
Simmer until thick + silky.
Season with a pinch of salt.

Serve warm fritters with a generous drizzle of caramel — crispy outside, soft + fluffy inside.
