Some more interesting side dish recipes on that site, lot of breads and a dumpling one. For the no knead cook I thought this looked interesting and have listed it for something to try sometime. Personally I would just melt and mix the butter/marg.

Pot bread

Ingredients
1 kg cake flour, white bread flour or wholewheat flour
15 ml salt
10 g instant yeast
lukewarm water
15 ml margarine

Method:
Sift the dry ingredients together. Add sufficient lukewarm water to form a stiff dough. Knead the margarine into it piece by piece. Knead until the dough is elastic. Grease a number six black pot and its lid with margarine. Place the dough in the pot, cover and leave in a warm place until the dough has risen and fills the pot. Place the pot over warm coals (the fire should not be too hot) and place a few coals on the lid. Bake for about an hour or until the crust is golden. Turn the pot every now and then.

Is it a Falkirk?
Just wondering how you seasoned it SBB and SBL, Falkirk recommend:

Curing Instructions - Potjie Pots ::
Fill 2/3 of the pot with water.
Add 200 ml vinegar and boil for 1 hour.
Let the pot cool down and empty it and use sandpaper as a scourer.
Repeat the above process, this time adding vegetable leaves ie. Carrot, potato skins, cabbage etc instead of vinegar. Again scour the pot until it is smooth as you can get it.
Wash and dry it well and grease the insides with cooking oil. Always wash the pot thoroughly after use and grease immediately to prevent rusting.

Yes it came with those instructions David.........did all of the above but cheated on the sanding ,,,,,,used a power tool to do the job. At the end of it all it didnt look seasoned to me so oiled it and cooked hell out of it a few times. Result was then Excellent.
