Easy Homemade South African Vetkoek: Bread Machine Method

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was a super easy recipe using the bread machine, and what a treat! The interior texture was very much like an English muffin, while the flavor and the fried exterior resembled an unsweetened doughnut. They were great with butter and jam, but my DH discovered they make a great savory sandwich when combined with recipe #232839 and recipe #173262 and a little bit of horseradish. Thanks for sharing this one, Ant! Made and enjoyed for the February 2012 African Recipe Tag game. :)

    South African vetkoek (Bread Machine Recipe), Very traditional ‘deep-fried breadrolls’; sounds weird but unbelievably good We grew up with these at least once a week: either filled with curried ‘mince’ (ground beef) (these we called curry bunnies); or just halved and spread with butter and preserves or syrup Yumm , This was a super easy recipe using the bread machine, and what a treat!
