The Olami cookbook from Nirit Saban of the popular deli on Bree
Street, Cape Town is all about simple, nourishing, wholesome food.
Olami, a word used in Israel, means global, universal and worldly,
and Nirit's recipes open the door to many fusions and intermingling
flavours from the Middle East to South America. A book that keeps
in mind the local, the recipes with easy-to-source ingredients make
it accessible to everyone. 'There is something magical that happens
at Olami every day, whether it be the flavours we combine, the
music that streams through the sound of sizzling and steaming and
bubbling, the voices of our customers and friends and family, the
arrival and departure of our suppliers - the consistent flow of
work and production all adds up to a melting pot of powerful
elements that nourish the team and the customers in the most
inspiring way. The intention behind Olami and my life is to be as
connected to nature as nature is to us. We at Olami are incredibly
humbled at this opportunity to share the food we love with
everyone.' - Nirit Saban In the book one will find classic recipes
with a twist, the focus being on using original flavour bases with
different combinations to create meals with flair and flavour. One
can roast butternut with a glaze of honey and sprinkled toasted
sesame seeds or one can mash the butternut and top it with loads of
parsley, lemon, olive oil and a dusting of sweet paprika.
'A brilliant new book'- Daily Mail
Eating healthily can be a confusing business. But what if there were a single, simple change you could make that would transform your health, without forcing you to give up the foods you love?
According to a growing body of international studies, little tweaks to your everyday diet to get you beyond the 5-a-day minimum and towards 10-a-day could slash your risk of developing the biggest diseases to affect the Western world. In fact, experts agree that simply eating more fruit and veg is the single most important dietary change you can do for your health!
As only 3 out of 10 people are even achieving the minimum amount of fruit and veg, this book aims to make getting there easy. No gimmicks, no 'banned' foods, no miserly portion sizes. Just 80 of the classic recipes you know and love made healthier (and tastier) by simply upping the amount of fruit and veg in them, all backed by the best science available.
