I know, I know, Tuesdays are supposed to be South African recipes. But, today we are making an exception. I made this clafoutis on Sunday and posted a picture on Instagram and Facebook and was immediately inundated by people wanting the recipe. So, I am posting it today and you do not have to wait any longer. Next Tuesday, we will continue with our South African/Rainbow cooking recipes.
