"Love & Lobola honours the meals that shaped our love story. Modern love often feels disconnected from heritage. These recipes show that you can be contemporary, well-travelled, curious, adventurous – and still be deeply rooted in tradition. In our kitchen, chakalaka can sit beside a Frenchstyle cordon bleu chicken. Umngqusho can share a table with crusty Lazy Boy beer bread. A December sheep roasted over fire can be followed by a delicate apple galette. Our love is layered. So is our food." From first meals together and cooking for the parents to hosting friends and date night, along with the food served over the lobola weekend, and more, this cookbook tells a story that goes beyond ingredients or techniques.

Kamini Pather first exploded onto the South African culinary scene as a participant and winner of the second series of MasterChef South Africa. Since then her life and cuisine journey has taken her down various paths, and although she always remains grounded and grateful to her heritage, she is not solely defined by it. As Kamini herself says, ‘All Dhal’d Up is a collection of ancestrally-derived recipes that have been updated through ingredients and techniques –the old world has been given some fancy.’ The concept of good-mood food leans gently into health, while ‘Indian-ish’ is a perfect nod to her ancestry, but fused with other cultures and their influence on the food she likes to eat. So although you will find traditional recipes, such as potato curry with nigella seeds, hot water roti and rasam, as well as the Sunday-standard meal of chicken curry, they are flanked by the delights of cauliflower rice lamb biriyani, panko-crumbed patha wraps, bacon dhal, pudhina hummus and rosewater ice-cream sandwiches with pistachio cookies.
Ever mindful of the demands of busy lives and consciences, Kamini has
ensured that the recipes are simple to follow, and are mindful of
healthy ideals and sustainably sourced ingredients.
"Plant-based is best for health, go vegan to help save the planet, eat less meat…" Almost every day we are bombarded with the seemingly incontrovertible message that we must reduce our consumption of meat and dairy – or eliminate them from our diets altogether. But what if the pervasive message that the plant-based diet will improve our health and save the planet is misleading – or even false? What if removing animal foods from our diet is a serious threat to human health, and a red herring in the fight against climate change. In THE GREAT PLANT-BASED CON, Jayne Buxton demonstrates that each of these ‘what-ifs’ is, in fact, a reality. Drawing on the work of numerous health experts and researchers, she uncovers how the separate efforts of a constellation of individuals, companies and organisations are leading us down a dietary road that will have severe repercussions for our health and wellbeing, and for the future of the planet. THE GREAT PLANT-BASED CON is neither anti-plant nor anti-vegan – it is a call for us to take an honest look at the facts about human diets and their effect on the environment. Shocking and eye-opening, this book outlines everything you need to know to make more informed decisions about the food you choose to eat.

Throughout Cariema Isaacs’ life, amid myriad defining moments, her pursuit of tracing her culinary lineage remained paramount. So, despite life’s demands, Cariema made the pivotal decision to uncover the origins of Cape Malay traditional dishes by travelling to Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Netherlands and France. The journey expanded beyond the quest for spices and flavours, delving into profound self-discoveries at every turn. In Singapore, she savoured teh tarik pandan, a delightful beverage that mirrored the cardamom-spiced tea her Ouma used to make. In Jakarta she tried Indonesian rendang and discovered it closely matched the flavours of Cape Malay denningvleis. While in the Netherlands, she was pleasantly surprised to discover a strong Dutch influence in Cape Malay baking and the similarities between the soetkoekie and speculaas. The French flair for delicate pastries and fruit preserves echoed in South Africa’s love affair with konfyt and éclairs. In The Cape Malay Culinary Masterclass, Cariema intertwines the delicate threads of her lineage with the diverse influences on Cape Malay gastronomy from the dishes of these countries. This collection of more than 100 recipes, presented with clear step-by-step photographs, holds the gems of Cape Malay culinary heritage, including the stories, traditions (both culinary and cultural) and cherished memories of cooking and baking. The Cape Malay Culinary Masterclass stands as a tribute to the enduring culinary prowess of the Cape Malays, where each dish carries the essence of generations past and the promise of many more to come.
