Well most of the SA meals are primarily meat based frankly.
I also eat primarily vegetarian and one SA thing I've found very helpful is Mrs Balls Chutney. It's got various uses but I primarily use it to fix veg dishes that turned out a bit too bland. So if I made a veg stew and didn't include enough unami components then I'll throw a tabblespoon of chutney on top of it.
I just do a rub with a little salt, rosemary, and mustard powder, then grill or broil and serve with mint jelly or South African chutney
You could maybe substitute the Nando's with regular chili, but there wouldn't be a great substitute for the fruit chutney. My feeling is that you could probably leave the chutney out to make a version that is more similar to what you'd actually get from Nando's.
However, you can buy both from Amazon, provided you like to spend money. To get the true South African experience, you have to get Mrs Balls' Chutney: https://www.amazon.com/Mrs-Balls-Original-Recipe-Chutney/dp/B008SG5F80/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1466602079&sr=8-1-fkmr2&keywords=fruit+chutney+mrs+balls
So I've been working on my Pad Thai recipe. Some of the best Pad Thai I've had was from a particular cooking teacher in Thailand. I recently asked him to send me his recipe. Here it is:
SEASONING SAUCE INGREDIENTS SERVING: 1 person
3 tbsp tamarind juice/paste (from the tamarind block - using Andy Rickers tamarind paste recipe)
3 tbsp palm sugar
2 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp shallot, minced
1 tbsp chili paste
1/4 tsp black soy sauce
1/2 cup water
How to make the sauce
*As for the peanut flavor that's in Pad Thai. That just comes from crushed roasted peanuts. You'll want to add some in the pan near the end of cooking and serve some as a condiment. If you'd like the full Pad Thai recipe let me know.
Edit: sorry my Reddit formatting sucks
