4. Sweet and smoky: Braaied butternut pudding

This braaied dessert is inspired by Zimbawean nhopi, which is basically chunky pumpkin mash with peanut butter, decorated with fresh cream. Braais aren't just for meaty mains, we challenge you to make more desserts on the braai.

5. Cooldown: Braaied lemonade

Make the lemoniest lemonade by braaiing your lemons before your squeeze 'em. This recipe includes lemon peels in the lemonade. Braaiing the lemons releases the oils in the peel and reduces the bitter taste of the pith. It's a refreshing drink that's perfect on a hot day.
