In South Africa, a braai is a picnic or a barbecue where meats are grilled over an open fire. And nothing says “braai” more than traditional South African peri peri sauce, made from crushed chilies and spices. Gather your family and treat them to this spicy, crispy, flame-grilled dish with our recipe that incorporates ingredients from this month’s South Africa box!
