Nothing speaks to me during winter the way a hearty and robust meal does.
Make it a lekker slow-cooked South African favourite paired with an equally delicious local wine, and that’s the good life sorted.
I am talking beef short rib braised in red wine and cooked slowly in a potjie pot with mushrooms and gremolata chucked in, too.
My mouth is watering like the valleys on Table Mountain were after all that recent rain.
Capetonians are in for more of the same, with rain forecast throughout Tuesday and Wednesday, as well as some very frosty minimum temperatures.
Bring on the red wine (if you still have some stocked), and for this fussless French-style bourguignon, Anthonij Rupert Wyne can sort us out.
We’ll start off with the ingredients needed to cook up this feast:

More wine… I mean, more about the wine, then.
The recipe pairs best with a merlot, and you can’t go wrong with the Cape Of Good Hope Parel Vallei Farmstead Merlot.
This deep and complex wine has notes of plum, mulberry, and cherry aromas which mingle with exotic spice, mint, and cocoa powder nuance.
It’s the kind of wine that will do really well lingering in your mouth while simmering in your potjie pot.
Of course, you don’t need reminding that the alcohol sales ban is still in place. Despite this, Anthonij Rupert Wyne’s online store remains active, with safe delivery taking place as soon as legally permitted.
That means that any orders placed will be stored under optimum conditions, ready for you when the ban is lifted.
Get your orders in, and get that beef short rib simmering.
