🔥 This Heritage Day, South Africa is firing up something unforgettable!

On 24 September, Loftus Versfeld Stadium will host the Big Save World Record Braai Day – with White Star Super Maize Meal proudly standing tall as the official pap partner. 🇿🇦✨

The mission? To set a new world record with 2,500 people braaiing together at the same time. Imagine the smell of sizzling wors, the sound of laughter, and thousands of plates brought to life with White Star’s famously white and fluffy pap. 🌽🍽️

But the day isn’t just about breaking records – it’s about celebrating community, culture, and the traditions that bring us together. White Star will also serve up plenty of flavour and fun, with live music, cook-offs, and prizes to keep the spirit alive long after the fires burn down. 🎶🔥

Because at every great South African braai, pap isn’t just a side dish – it’s the heart of the meal. And with White Star, it’s always perfectly fluffy, perfectly local, and perfectly shared. 💚

As Spring makes its welcome return, so does the craving for meals that are light yet satisfying – and the eye candy Mushroom Crispy Rice Salad by MushroomsSA delivers on all fronts.

Serves 6

Ingredients:

Dressing:
2 Tbsp peanut butter
2 Tbsp hot water
1 clove garlic, grated
2 tsp ginger, grated
2 Tbsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp soy sauce
4 Tbsp rice vinegar

Crispy rice:
2 cups cooked white rice
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp gochujang*

Salad:
2 spring onions, sliced
1 ripe avocado, diced
1 small Mediterranean cucumber, diced
1 head baby white cabbage, very thinly sliced
100g steamed broccoli, cooled and finely diced
Handful fresh coriander, roughly chopped
Handful fresh mint leaves, roughly chopped
250g white button mushrooms, sliced
100g fresh lettuce leaves
2 Tbsp roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Lime wedges, for serving

*Gochujang is a spicy, fermented chilli paste used in Korean cuisine. It is readily available at all Asian supermarkets as well as Woolworths, Checkers, Yuppiechef and a lot of online retailers e.g. Faithful to Nature.

Method:

For the dressing:
Combine the peanut butter and hot water and whisk.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
Taste to adjust seasoning and then set aside until serving.

For the crispy rice:
Preheat oven to 200˚C.
Place cooked rice in a bowl with the soy sauce, sesame oil and gochujang.
Mix the seasoning thoroughly into the rice with your hands so every grain is covered.
Transfer to a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Spread the rice out in a thin layer.
Bake for 10 minutes and then agitate, flipping the rice over to evenly brown all the grains.
Bake for another 10 minutes until brown and crispy.
Set aside to cool.

For the salad:
Combine all of the salad ingredients except for the lettuce leaves and peanuts together in a large bowl.
Season with a little salt and pepper. Mix.
Add the crispy rice and pour over the dressing.
Toss to mix well.
Assemble dressed salad on a large serving platter.
Plate lettuce leaves alongside the chopped salad.
Scatter with peanuts and serve with lime wedges on the side and enjoy!
