Missing those Sunday braais with perfectly grilled boerewors sizzling over the coals? That first glorious bite of a syrup-soaked koeksister after church? We know that feeling of longing for the flavours that shaped your childhood.

Whether you're in London, Perth, or Qatar, we want to hear about the South African dishes that make your heart ache with nostalgia. Is it your ouma's milk tart that you dream about? That street corner gatsby from Cape Town? Or maybe it's the simple pleasure of a perfectly ripe granadilla?

Share your food memories with us. Tell us about the dishes that transport you straight back home with just one taste. What's the first thing you stock up on when you visit? What's the recipe you've tried (and failed) to recreate in your kitchen abroad?

Let's celebrate the tastes of South Africa together – because sometimes the flavours of home are the ones we miss the most.
