The Van Nispen Kitchen

Family recipes, written down

The recipes we actually cook

Written down before we forget them, and shared in case they are useful to you too.

  • Buttermilk Rusks

    Dried twice, keep for months, and the only correct thing to dunk in early-morning coffee.

  • Melktert

    Milk tart with a cinnamon dusting — cold from the fridge, cut in generous wedges.

  • Bobotie

    The South African classic — curried mince under a savoury custard, baked until the top just sets.
