Our Indian ancestors forged a culinary story unique to South Africa.
Bringing with them spices, countless unwritten recipes and an
unbreakable spirit, their story is one of indenture, resistance and
resilience, one that has shaped the rich, complex heritage of South
African Indian cooking.
Madame Curry is celebrity chef and TV personality Yudhika Sujanani’s
journey through these culinary traditions and the bold, aromatic
flavours that define South African Indian cuisine. This collection of
recipes celebrates both beloved heritage dishes and the popular
favourites that have become part of our shared national palate.
Beginning with abundant, generous recipes fit for a feast, the book
then turns to sweets and savouries prepared with reverence and sacred
intention for religious gatherings. It concludes with well-loved
comfort foods and homely treats, classic family favourites served
alongside sophisticated, aromatic bakes.
Dust your apron with flour, let the spices stain your fingers, and
allow Madame Curry to show you how to cook with your hands and your
heart.
