Magwinya..hhhhhmmmm,. With a little bit of polony😋

u/sKuarecircle 1d ago

You buy two slices of polony and one slice of cheese, that’s the ratio

It's fat cakes aka amagwinya aka vetkoek

It a bit like a donut but no glaze and less sugar and you usually eat it in the morning with some polony, cheese, white liver, atchaar or snoekfish

Amagwinya, puff puff, vetkoek, fat cake. Choose a name.

u/sKuarecircle 1d ago

Ok no but Amgwinya is not Vet Koek, Vet are bigger and softer

I think you will find more variation in recipes from household to household than there is really a difference between these.

But I will give you this. Our understanding of these names always come with context and that does make all of these different. I also wouldn't refer to the lovely dough balls I buy at a street vendor as vetkoek or what my grandma makes as magwinya. Even if there is no real culinary differences.
