This savoury tart is a very traditional South-African Afrikaans recipe. You basically grow up with savoury tart at most events, most commonly served as a savoury item at a birthday party. You get a lot of variations, but the most common variation's ingredients consist of bacon, vienna sausage and cheese.
This savoury tart recipe can make one large one, or individual ones. This is a lovely meal for my own family for a quick dinnner. We normally have a lovely summer salad and a Portuguese roll with this meal. It is very very tasty, and you will linger for more!
