Bord
Die resepte in dié boek kan elke dag van die week gebruik word vir daardie een hoofmaaltyd wat ons elke dag voorberei, hetsy ons vir die gesin kook of vriende vermaak. Bord is in slegs drie hoofstukke ingedeel – Vleis, Pluimvee en Seekos – en die resepte wissel van bekende klassieke tot moderne geregte, meestal met ’n kontinentale invloed. Alles word voorberei met die skrywer se flair vir tuisgemaakte, hartlike en lekker etes.
Bord is die perfekte geskenk vir diegene wat huis opsit en relatief onervare in die kombuis is, maar selfs gesoute kokke sal inspirasie in dié boek vind.
Plate
The recipes in this book can be used every day of the week for that one main course we cook daily, whether we’re cooking for the family or entertaining our friends. Divided into just three chapters – Meat, Poultry and Seafood – the recipes range from well-known classics to modern dishes, many with a Continental influence. All are prepared with the author’s flair for home-cooked, hearty, and delicious meals.
Plate would make the perfect house-warming gift for those relatively inexperienced in the kitchen, but even seasoned cooks will find inspiration.
Karoo Food

Tracing the origins of ingredients and the stories behind the dishes, this is a selection of recipes and inspirations from the important people in his life. It’s a mix of the old and the new and a tribute to all those lovely people and their marvelous food over the generations that have helped foster his love of cooking. This book is a must-have for cooks, foodies and aspiring home chefs.
Everyday
As a working mom, Lisa Clark is constantly on the clock and trying to find ways to cheat time. There are days where she literally mothers her twin tweens remotely from her phone, making sure they have arrived home safely, that they have changed out of their school clothes, that they are doing their homework or are on their way to horse-riding. And when her day gets busier, the last decision she wants to make is what to cook her family for dinner. In Everyday shares some insights into how to provide healthy, balanced and quick recipes for the mom (or dad) on the move!
The book is divided into 10 chapters, each starting off with a basic recipe and then followed by several others that show how to turn one quick meal into several appetising dishes. From muesli, tomato sauce and roasted vegetables to fish, chicken, pastry and sponge cake, there is sure to be a recipe to inspire your everyday cooking.
Sweet - Delectable Vanilla, Caramel, Chocolate And Fruit Treats
Sweet – a word that in the culinary realm conjures up notions of decadence, irresistible deliciousness, indulgence and yes, basically palate bliss. Those treats we crave when we’re happy, sad or in need of a pick-me-up, and which make the world feel like a wonderful place. These are what Samantha Linsell presents in Sweet – and so much more! The dizzy array of sweet temptations will make your head spin and take you back to that state of excited contemplation that you last experienced as a child before a birthday party. Cakes, tarts, butters, confectionery sweets, muffins, biscuits, bars, pastries, sauces, puddings, beverages, ice creams, preserves, sorbets, mousses, scones – they’re all there.
But unlike the sweet treats of childhood, Samantha offers a very adult twist to many a traditional offering, such as Vanilla and Baileys® French toast bake, and Chocolate waffles with bourbon butterscotch sauce. And if you really need to salve your conscience, all the recipes in one of the chapter include fruit.
As if the recipes titles aren’t sufficient to set the tastebuds alight, special mention should be made of the photography. Sam is a food stylist par excellence and the photographs (she took them herself) are sure to kick that last vestige of resistance into the wild yonder. The only sensible thing to do is to yield to temptation and move into the kitchen.
Vegetarian Sheet Pan Cooking
What’s not to love about sheet pan cooking? It is super- convenient, healthy, easy on the washing up and, as Liz Franklin proves here in 101 inspired meat-free recipes, big on flavour! More and more of us are cutting out animal protein and products from our diets, or at very least reducing them. Liz Franklin reveals how all manner of truly scrumptious dishes can be created when oven, sheet pan and vegetables conspire.
Most of the recipes are built on a rainbow of roasted vegetables, grains, cheese and vegan sources of protein, but there are also recipes for things you might not associate with oven cooking too, such as fabulous fritters, glorious soups and the best- ever baked porridge. Taking their lead from dishes enjoyed all around the world, recipes include delicious dishes from the Mediterranean, Middle East, Africa and the Americas as well as ideas designed to showcase your own local seasonal produce.

Share
Champion of South African home-cooking, Errieda du Toit set out to write a cookbook about the food we most love to eat and the culture of sharing these recipes in community cookbooks. Intrigued by our strong attachment to these dog-eared, food-stained recipes collections, she pored over 150 titles spanning a century. Share is her tribute to this humble culinary source and a celebration of its collaborative spirit. It’s the first to deal specifically with the genre, and the result is a delightful, quirky and thoroughly modern homage that taps into our food memories in a unique way.
Share features a wide selection of recipes as generous, gracious and welcoming as the home cooks who shared them: the keepers (recipes known for their longevity), the never-fails (those epic recipes that never let you down), communal food for come-on-overs, retro classics and those defining dishes and bakes treasured as heritage food.
Bringing visual expression to Errieda’s vision, Share is beautifully photographed, and wittily styled and designed to further capture the character and off-beat traits of the genre.
They're like your brain's way of saying: you know what the world really needs? Nonsensical storylines that nobody questions. And flying cars.
And even though we know they're absolutely bonkers and possess zero relevance whatsoever, we waste no time telling people all about them.
Sad fact: nobody wants to hear it. There is only one dream worth talking about, and that's Martin Luther King Jr's.
Anyhoo, last night we had a dream where we featured half-off tickets to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers live at the Department of Home Affairs. They weren't even performing. They just worked there. Crazy, huh?
