Comment préparer Vetkoek With Meat Filling

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup lukewarm water with 1 teaspoon sugar. Sprinkle 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast over the mixture and let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Add ¼ cup vegetable oil to the yeast mixture.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too sticky.
  6. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  7. Gently punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
  8. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten to about 1cm thickness.
  9. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat (350°F/175°C).
  10. Carefully fry each vetkoek for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
  11. **For the Meat Filling:**
  12. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  13. Add 1 lb ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
  14. Stir in 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced, and ½ cup water. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  15. Add ½ cup leftover vegetable curry (or more, to taste) and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  16. Slice the vetkoek in half and fill with the meat mixture. Serve immediately.
