Jou moer man. Potato salad must have boiled egg, raw onions, mayo and perhaps bits of bacon now and then for variety, but that's it. The worst potato salad I've had was from Woolworths.Chilli wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 1:55 pm
AJ and Oom's wimmen folk will add condensed milk to their potato salad.
I dig a hot potato salad with vinegar and raw onion.

I put it on with a brush towards the end of the cook time. But yes if you did it from the start it does burn. Same as honey on chicken.Chilli wrote: Fri Jan 21, 2022 7:45 amLow heat.

One of the most common braai errors is to braai on coals that are too hot, with the exception of steak.FalseBayFC wrote: Fri Jan 21, 2022 7:54 amI put it on with a brush towards the end of the cook time.
