Mielie Souffle


Erna Conradie

Generously passed on by a granny at a Platteland church bazaar, this recipe makes a great main course for those who don’t eat meat.

- 3 eggs, separated

- 15ml margarine, melted

- 5ml baking powder

- 1 tin sweet corn

- 125ml sugar

- 30ml corn flour

- pinch salt

- 250ml milk

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

2. Beat the egg whites until stiff.

3. In a separate bowl, mix the remaining ingredients and then fold in the egg whites.

4. Grease six small oven-proof dishes, then spoon in the mixture.

5. Bake at 180°C for 25 minutes (if you’re making one large soufflé then bake for about 45 minutes).
