         BRAAIED MIELIES
         (CORN ON THE COB)
         Mielies on the side or as a main (if
         you are doing a vegetarian braai)
         are always a winner, especially when
         they are smothered in butter. We
         have two innovative butters to add
         to your mielies: curry butter and
         Cuban-style butter.

         •  1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
         •  2 tsp mild curry powder
           Black Hawaiian salt, for
