Graeme’s secret braai marinade:

An essential part of South African culture, the braai brings family and friends together for almost any celebration. When we spoke to Graeme Anderson, Explore Tour Leader in South Africa and Eswatini, he was only too happy to share his secret braai marinade.

MARINADES MEAT FOR 2-3 PEOPLE. Best with fillet but you can use on any beef or chicken.

Ingredients

A generous 2–3 squirts of sweet chilli sauce (Graeme recommends Wellingtons, but any will do)

A dash of Cola (not too much) – 25–50ml is perfect

1 tbsp of paprika

1 tbsp of basil

1 tbsp of dry chilli spice (not too hot, it’s to give flavour, not heat)

A pinch of salt
