How to get a braai taste without actually braaing
When you want the braai taste without having to bring out the firelighters...
There are days when you want to have a braai but don't have the energy to set it up.
On those days, when you are desperate for the taste of a braai without having a braai, we suggest this cool idea of smoking your food.
This is a great way to jazz up your braai-themed supper for one. A video shows a guy, who considers himself a foodie, sharing a key tip to achieving the braai taste without the fire. All he did was prepare his sausages on a stove top and then lit a charcoal.
He lit the coal, placed it in a small glass bowl, and placed it inside the frying pan creating a smokey effect. It was like something a chef might do on a cooking show.
After some time, he removed the sausages from the 'smoked' experience and voila, sausages that taste like they've been braaied without hitting the grill.
