CHAKALAKA

Born in the townships of South Africa, chakalaka is a simple vegetable relish that is usually accompanied at braais with pap. Traditionally it is made with baked bean. However, baked beans in a tin is loaded with sugar and preservatives. Swopping out a few ingredients makes this version of chakalaka so much better for you. In one simple dish, you get an array of vitamins and minerals. It is great in a warmed brown pita garnished with chopped cucumber (lunch box idea) or just eat as is.
