‘This is more than just a cookbook; it is a celebration of culinary creativity and a testament to Ollie’s exceptional talent and zest for life.’ – Ivor Jones, head chef at Chefs Warehouse BeauConstantia.

There’s one thing that Chef Ollie doesn’t do easily and that’s follow rules. He likes to challengeconvention and try new things, often at the spur of the moment. This attitude to life hasfiltered into his cooking style, which he enthusiastically shares with you in this aptly titled book, Freestyle Cooking with Chef Ollie.

Ollie cooks with feeling and taste. His recipes are quick and easy, and designed to inspire rather than intimidate. With this book, he aims to show home cooks that just by using the bestand simplest ingredients, you can create dishes that scream with flavour. Whether he’s making you sweat with his Hot and Sour Prego Roll or transporting you to Indonesia with his Sambal Matah Fish en Papillote, Ollie proves that the secret to exceptional dishes lies in the layering of flavour and understanding the basics of cooking.

Each of the six chapters in Freestyle Cooking with Chef Ollie represents a distinct part of Ollie’slife and is accompanied by a lesson he’s learned along the way, as well as a QR code to a playlist of songs that all form part of the culinary adventure.

With recipes ranging from Proper Durban Lamb Curry, Banging Lamb Chops and Rooibos Honey Basque Cheesecake to 30 Clove Garlic Chardonnay Chicken, the Double Oklahoma Smash Burger and Banana Dom Pedros, Ollie reminds us that cooking is meant to be fun.

So put on your tunes, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy!

Spices weaved their way into my kitchen and somehow my collection seems to flourish regardless of the homes and locations I’ve lived in. From the author and chef of Cooking for my father in My Cape Malay Kitchen, comes a cookbook that chronicles her adulation and reverence for spices. Cariema Isaacs’s affinity for spices emanates from her Cape Malay heritage and her time spent cooking and baking in her grandmother’s kitchen in Bo-Kaap, the Cape Malay Quarter in Cape Town. Thus, at a very early age she understood the tastes derived from cumin and coriander, the pungency of fennel, cloves and star anise, and the piquancy of chilli powder, cayenne pepper and masala blends. Spice Odyssey showcases a multitude of beautifully written recipes with some familiar spices from her Cape Malay heritage and fresh aromatics from her travels to India, Turkey, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and the Middle East. ‘From east to west, north to south, the routes and journeys travelled from shore to shore by slaves and explorers, travellers and traders, the story of spices emerged and the spice odyssey began.’

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.

Soos vinkel en koljander, dís Najma Abrahams (Tietie) en Azba Fanie (Nanna). Dié twee TikTok-tuiskokke se hande staan vir niks verkeerd óf stil nie, veral nie vir die kospotte nie. Hul resepte is hartskos – niks fensie bestanddele nie, net geurige regte, egte huiskos met ’n Kaaps-Maleise twist.

Groenboontjiebredie, tamatiekos, split pea-sop en selfs die vergete sagobredie, blomkoolbredie, panfrikkadel, Nando’s-hoender, broodpoeding en dhaltjies eerlik gemaak, sonder fieterjasies – dit is mos die onopgesmukte huiskos waarna elkeen verlang. Die kerries is natuurlik ook daar – suikerboon-, hoender-, dhal- en mincekerrie, breyani, noem maar op. Snoek-in-die-oond, kerrievis en seekos-paella (times are tough, ’n mens moet maar ’n paar maande of so spaar daarvoor, sê die twee siezas) bring die see in jou kospotte. Vir “broke week” is daar sakpas-randrekkers soos dhanya-soesys, eierkerrie en spaghetti-en-sardyne. Tietie se peperminttert en lemon meringue is uit ’n ander wêreld en Nanna se braised skaapnek sal enige onthaaltafel laat kreun van smaakgenot. Mavrou, Tietie se lamsvleis-weergawe van dié tradisionele gereg wat in die Kaaps-Maleise kultuur by troues voorgesit word, is ’n tydlose treffer.

En moenie van die happies en lekkernye vergeet nie – dis nou die “soet en sout” waarmee Mzansi se mense grootgeword en die lewe om elke hoek en draai gevier het. Watertand-verleidings soos bollas, flapjacks, skons, snowballs, patatkoekies, sweetcorn fritters en vele meer. Samoesas en roti’s kry variasies in geure en kleure om van te droom. (Só sê Tietie: Roti is baie versatile – eet dit met kerrie, masala steak of selfs as ’n poeding. Dis tog te lekker met strawberries, strawberry jam en cream.)

Nou ja, as jy nie so ’n tuiskombuis geken het nie, is jy waarskynlik reeds daaraan voorgestel op Tietie en Nanna se kookprogram, Tietie en Nanna kook op VIA, kanaal 147 op DStv, of in hul stories en kwinkslae op Instagram en TikTok.

Met Tietie en Nanna se onfeilbare resepte, perfek beproef, kan elkeen weer huiskos, soos ons ma’s, oumas en tantes dit gemaak het, in hul eie kombuise opdis.

Vir hom begin alles met ’n besluit: Om mense te nooi vir ete. En dan kom die groot beplanning: die datum, die gaste, die tema en dekor en laaste – maar seker die belangrikste – die spyskaart.

In Herman se tafel bied Herman Lensing tien unieke spyskaarte, elkeen geskoei op ’n tema waarby al die gange – voorgereg, hoofgereg, nagereg en meer – pas. Die keurige geregte in hierdie boek is saamgestel met kundigheid en styl, maar is deurgaans gebruikersvriendelik en aanloklik. Daar is ou Suid-Afrikaanse bekendes, maar ook Italiaanse pastas en ’n Franse nagereg of twee; disse waarin vars kruie die kollig steel, kuierkos vir lank eet, afshow-geregte om jou gaste te beïndruk en ja, selfs happies vir honde. En dan wys hy jou ook hoe om jou tafel te dek: óf met uitspattighede, óf met dit wat jy reeds in jou huis het. Vir Herman is die etenstafel die kern van die huis en van saamwees – van bande versterk en van vriendskappe smee – en ’n simbool van alles wat mooi en goed is. Met hierdie boek nooi Herman jou uit om fees te vier, om moeite te doen, om die lewe te vier en om groot – dog moeiteloos – te kook.

Reuben Riffel shares his secrets on how to get to flavour quicker... without the fuss.

I think every chef has a dream of how they’d cook for people in an ideal world… for me my dream scenario is definitely cooking with fire. There's a happiness that goes with cooking on a fire, a freedom and festive feel to it, that is what I love about it.

This book is about flavours first, the simplicity of cooking over fire. It’s not about how to braai, the technical stuff… rather just to share my enjoyment of cooking, and to encourage you to play and experiment with cooking over fire. You don’t have to be an expert braaimaster and slave over hot coals for hours. I like to see a fire as an extension of the kitchen, using the same spices and flavourings that I enjoy cooking with inside, but cooking over a fire for the extra flavour and a touch of smoke.

The recipes in this book are the tried and tested ones that got the thumbs up from friends and family, and range from incredibly simple to more creative. You’ll find different meats and seafoods, loads of vegetables and salads… and a good helping of quick and easy snacks to keep everyone happy kuiering by the fire while you cook the main event.

Simple Suppers is your new best friend in the kitchen for fuss-free, wholesome meals the whole family will love. Packed with easy-to-follow recipes, this book offers seasonal dishes that require minimal planning, prep, and ingredients – but deliver big on taste and nutrition. From speedy weeknight dinners to one-pot wonders and make-ahead gems, these recipes will transform pantry staples into hero meals, making cooking a breeze. Whether you’re feeding picky eaters, batch cooking for the week, or simply craving the comforting smells of a slow-cooked dinner, this cookbook has you covered with all the delicious, stress-free meals you need to feed your family, all year round.

What's more comforting and satisfying than toast? And if you top it with a few cleverly paired ingredients, it can be a full meal, not to mention pure bliss. These 75 recipes for things on toast will help you make quick, delicious and versatile meals year-round – for working–from-home lunches and cosy Sunday suppers, to light bites, indulgent treats or impressive canapés.

Recipes include:

• Avocado, summer tomatoes & tapenade rocket on olive bread
• Bubble & squeak with hollandaise on fried bread
• Falafel, edamame & red pepper hummus on flatbread
• Grilled chicken tikka with yoghurt on naan
• Smoked salmon, wasabi & avocado on granary bread

Bliss on Toast is as much a toolkit for quick fridge-raids as it is inspiration for seasonal delights. With 82 years' experience of good eating and 60 years of cooking, writing about and judging food, there is no-one who better knows what makes a meal bliss than Dame Prue Leith.

When we eat al fresco – outside, beyond the confines of four walls – everyday meals become a heady combination of fresh air and flavours, of outdoor sounds and natural views. Whether that ‘outside’ is our own backyard, garden, patio or stoep, seaside caravan park, bushveld or the middle of nowhere surrounded by mountains, it makes little difference because we come away energized, nurtured and deeply satisfied. And if preparing those meals doesn’t require conventional electricity during the dreaded loadshedding, well, that’s just the cherry on the top!

In Easy Al Fresco, Ilse van der Merwe offers a simple and inspiring guide for fabulous, easy and scrumptious dishes that can all be prepared with a limited range of basic utensils, and a fire or kettle braai. As Ilse says, this should be the only book you pack for your next trail hike, fishing weekend, game reserve trip or seaside holiday. From breads, spreads, appetisers, salads and sandwiches, through to mains and desserts, Ilse has you covered.

So what are you waiting for? Light the fire, grab a whisk and turn the pages of Easy Al Fresco – you’ll never look back.
