In Kaap, kerrie & koesisters neem die tweelingsusters Fatima en Gadija ons op ’n tradisionele Kaaps-Maleise kosreis wat terselfdertyd ook ’n lewensreis is, want die resepte word saamgesnoer met herinneringe aan hulle grootwordjare op die Kaapse Vlakte en die vroue wat so ’n groot rol gespeel het om ’n liefde vir koskook en bak by hulle te kweek.

Die susters glo aan lekker huiskos en resepte wat vinnig, maklik en bekostigbaar is – soos wat hulle geliefde oorlede moeder se kookstyl ook was. Maar die boek bevat ook uithangresepte vir daardie spesiale geleenthede! Wat is dan nou lekkerder as ’n pot tradisionele gheemakerrie, of Fatima se alombekende kerrievis, akni, dhaltjies en piesangbrood? En probeer gerus Gadija se sambals, smoortjies en bredies met die geurigste speserye.

Met afdelings soos sop, bredies, poedings, vleis, vis, koeke en gebak is die boek beslis ’n moet vir elke Kaaps-Maleise lekkerbek – en elkeen wat nog altyd meer wou weet van die Kaaps-Maleise kookkuns!

Julia Turshen has always been cooking. As a kid, she skipped the Easy-Bake Oven and went straight to the real thing. Throughout her life, cooking has remained a constant, and as fans of her popular books know, Julia's approach to food is about so much more than putting dinner on the table--it is about love, community, connection, and nourishment of the body and soul.

In Simply Julia, readers will find 110 foolproof recipes for more nutritious takes on the simple, comforting meals Julia cooks most often. With practical chapters such as weeknight go-tos, make-ahead mains, vegan one-pot meals, chicken recipes, easy baked goods, and more, Simply Julia provides endlessly satisfying options comprised of accessible and affordable ingredients. Think dishes like Stewed Chicken with Sour Cream + Chive Dumplings, Hasselback Carrots with Smoked Paprika, and Lemon Ricotta Cupcakes--the kind of flavorful yet unfussy food everyone wants to make at home.

In addition to her tried-and-true recipes, readers will find Julia's signature elements--her "Seven Lists" (Seven Things I Learned From Being a Private Chef that Make Home Cooking Easier; Seven Ways to Use Leftover Buttermilk; Seven Ways to Use Leftover Egg Whites or Egg Yolks), menu suggestions, and helpful adaptations for dietary needs, along with personal essays and photos and gorgeous food photography.

Like Melissa Clark's Dinner or Ina Garten's Modern Comfort Food, Simply Julia is sure to become an instant classic, the kind of cookbook that will inspire home cooks to create great meals for years to come.
