We were at church last night and got talking to one of the people there. Anyhow, somehow, we have volunteered to have a South African braai for the whole ward(local parish)!!!
This will take place in June sometime - date to be confirmed - and we (i.e two people) will be cooking for about 200 people!!!!!!!!!
Now, the obvious potato salad, noodle salad and sousboontjies are going to be present. Also, boerewors, chicken sosaties, possibly lamb sosaties, and toasted sandwiches (done on the braai) are on the menu. Dessert will be milktart (cos it can be made in advance).
What else should be on the table (bearing in mind we have a budget)?

You can...if you want to make a rice salad with bits of canned peaches, green/red peppers and bits of sautes onions... that can also be make in advance.
The other suggestion, which is really quick and easy to make is curried peach salad. It is basically chopped onions, sautes in butter, then add some curry powder and tumeric, drain tinned peaches and add the syrrup, let it all boil until thick and then pour it over the peaches. If this is made a day or two in advance i tastes even better! Let me know if you want the receipe...
You can also always make some pap en sous! :luck:

Sounds yummy! Do you have a recipe or some guidelines for me?
I figure seeing as every meal I have had at an Irish home has had two to three potato dishes on the table serving multiple variants of potato will not be frowned up here.
