Hearty Tomato Potjie-Inspired Stew Recipe

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This is an authentic South African dish that I learned from a friend of mine. It's easy to make and can be varied to your own taste. The secret is in the sauce's flavour. If you can get your hands on a 3 legged black pot (pootjie pot) as it is known in S.A., it will make a huge difference to the flavour. I have however made it on the stove in a normal pot and it tasted almost as good.
