Donuts, Cape Town's dirty little secret you just have to try.

Meet Aunty Sieda, who is using a recipe passed down over generations. Her family has lived in the Cape for over 300 years and originates from Java.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A KOESISTER AND A KOEKSISTER?
Both these South African treats are deep fried and dipped in a sugar syrup, however that’s where the similarities end.
A koeksister is plaited, deep-fried and immediately dipped into a cold sugar syrup, resulting in a crispy exterior.
The Cape Malay koesister is flavoured cinnamon, cardamom, mixed spice and aniseed. Every koesister-maker has their own combination of spices so no two people’s koesisters are alike. After deep-frying they’re cooled down, dipped in a hot sugar syrup, and then rolled in coconut.
Koesisters and coffee can be many breakfast tables on Sunday mornings in Cape Town. This is a breakfast tradition many Capetonians have taken with them to other cities in South Africa and other parts of the globe.
In many neighbourhoods around Cape Town you’ll find at least one home where people line up to get their Sunday morning sweet and spicy fix.
