A traditional, Cape dessert (originating in the South Western corner of South Africa – the Western Cape Province – where the Dutch Settlers landed). Brandy was first distilled from Cape grapes in 1672. Today, South Africa produces some fine brandies which can compete with the best French Cognacs!
I sent this recipe in to Gourmet Magazine many years ago, when I was still at school, and was most excited when they published it – must’ve been something good about it!
