Super Moist Chocolate Cake with Perfect Chocolate Ganache

All the ingredients you need are right here at Pick n Pay – no need to shop anywhere else!

Cake Ingredients:
• 1 ¾ cups cake flour
• 2 cups white sugar
• ¾ cup cocoa powder
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• 1 ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup sunflower oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 1 stick Nescafé (2g instant coffee)
• 1 cup boiling hot water

Chocolate Ganache Ingredients:
• 200g dark chocolate, finely chopped
• 200ml fresh cream
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Method:

For the Cake:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C. Grease and line two 23cm round cake tins with baking paper.
2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, bicarb, and salt.
3. In another bowl, whisk the milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
4. Add the wet mixture into the dry and mix gently.
5. Dissolve the Nescafé in 1 cup boiling water and stir into the batter. (It will be thin – that’s perfect for a moist cake!)
6. Divide between the two tins and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
7. Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from tins and let cool completely.

For the Ganache:

1. Heat the cream in a saucepan until just simmering.
2. Pour over the chopped chocolate and leave for 1–2 minutes.
3. Stir gently until smooth and glossy. Add butter and mix through.
4. Let it cool until slightly thickened, then spread between the cake layers and over the top.

Slice, serve, and enjoy your homemade chocolate cake – proudly baked with Pick n Pay ingredients!

🏆 Game Day Grub: Easy Chakalaka with Pap & Wors 🏆

Whether you’re watching rugby, soccer, cricket, or just relaxing, this bold and spicy Chakalaka is the MVP of your plate. Serve it with pap and boerewors, and watch your squad cheer for seconds before the final whistle.

⏱ Ready in: 45 mins
🍽 Serves: 6 hungry supporters
🔥 Pro Tip: Make it the night before so you can focus on the game, not the kitchen.

🛒 Ingredients:

45ml (3 Tbsp) oil

2 onions, sliced

2 green peppers, chopped

30ml (2 Tbsp) grated fresh ginger

4 cloves garlic, peeled & crushed

1 red chilli, finely chopped (or more if you like a spicy game plan)

15ml (1 Tbsp) vinegar

4 medium carrots, peeled & coarsely grated

1 x 210g tin baked beans in tomato sauce

125ml (½ cup) water

1 x 400g sachet Bolognaise Pasta Sauce

1 x 37g Durban Curry Dry Cook-In Sauce

Salt & black pepper, to taste

Braaied or grilled boerewors, to serve

Pap, to serve

👩‍🍳 Method:
1️⃣ Heat oil in a pot. Fry onions & green peppers over medium heat until soft (±5 mins).
2️⃣ Stir in ginger, garlic & chilli. Cook 1 min.
3️⃣ Add vinegar, turn up the heat, and scrape up all the tasty bits at the bottom.
4️⃣ Add carrots, baked beans, water, then pour in Bolognaise Pasta Sauce.
5️⃣ Sprinkle in Durban Curry Dry Cook-In Sauce. Stir for 1 min.
6️⃣ Season with pepper & salt to taste.
7️⃣ Reduce heat. Simmer 15 mins, stirring now & then. Add a splash of water if it looks too dry.
8️⃣ While the chakalaka’s doing its thing, braai or grill boerewors and make pap.
9️⃣ Serve hot — wors, pap, and a winning heap of chakalaka on top.

🌱 Veggie game plan: Skip the wors, serve with lentil burgers or baked potatoes.
👨‍👩‍👧 Family-friendly: Leave out the chilli for junior supporters.

🥢 Friday Feast Alert: Crunchy Sweet & Sour Stir-Fry 🥢

Fast. Fresh. Flavour-packed. This stir-fry is your golden ticket to a happy tummy and a crunchy weekend kick-off. Whether you go chicken, beef, or even adventurous ostrich, this Sweet and Sour Sauce will have your taste buds doing the Friday dance 💃🕺.

⏱ Ready in: 30 mins
🍽 Serves: 6 hungry humans
💡 Pro Tip: Throw in cashews or peanuts for an extra crunch that’ll make your chopsticks clap.

🛒 Ingredients:

45ml (3 Tbsp) oil

600g chicken, beef or ostrich strips

1 red pepper, sliced

1 yellow pepper, sliced

3 carrots, peeled & cut into thin strips

3 big cloves garlic, crushed

A thumb-sized piece fresh ginger, grated

150g green beans, halved

8 spring onions, sliced

1 x 400g Royco® Sweet and Sour Sauce

Salt & pepper, to taste

420g dry noodles

A handful of cashew nuts or peanuts, to serve

Fresh coriander, to serve

👩‍🍳 Method:

1️⃣ Heat some oil in a large pan/wok. Sear the chicken or beef in batches over high heat until browned but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
2️⃣ Toss in the peppers and carrots (add more oil if needed). Stir-fry for a few minutes until they start looking happy.
3️⃣ Add garlic, ginger, and beans. Cook until beans are tender but still rocking that bright green.
4️⃣ Return the meat to the pan. Add spring onions and Royco® Sweet and Sour Sauce.
5️⃣ Reduce heat. Let it simmer until meat is cooked and veggies are still crisp. Season with salt & pepper.
6️⃣ Meanwhile, cook the noodles as per the packet, then drain.
7️⃣ Plate up with noodles, scatter over fresh coriander and nuts. Serve hot.

🌱 Veggie swap: Skip the meat for a vegetarian win.
👨‍👩‍👧 Kid-friendly: Teach them chopstick skills while you’re at it.

💬 Friday Mood: Who needs takeout when you can wok this out at home?
