Mike Bolhuis is considered one of South Africa's top specialist investigators. He has been involved in some of the country's biggest murder and fraud cases. The series delves deeply into some of the cases that have come across his desk. Mike wants to show viewers what the reality is in South Africa and bring hidden issues to the fore.
The slight twist on this version of a local cooking reality competition, is that recipes and challenges will revolve around so-called Afrikaans "legacy foods" - or nostalgia laden meals - classic Afrikaans history and "remember foods", updated but still with the same taste and historical legacy behind it.
Koekedoortjie follows on the heels of the diminutive Kokkedoortjie, a cooking competition spin-off from Kokkedoor. Mari-Louis Guy and Nic van Wyk will again be the judges of the new show that will be filmed in Cape Town at Atlantic Studios.
The new show will consist of 10 contestants competing and each having to complete 3 challenges per episode. Just like Kokkedoor, the focus is on tradition and innovation, but there is no competition in teams. Cash prizes, as well as weekly prizes are up for grabs in the search for the first Koekedoor.
A South African cooking reality show. Spinoff from mother show, Kokkedoor, young aspiring cooks aged 9 to 13 years cook for the title of Kokkedoortjie.
