Marlene van der Westhuizen, celebrated author of Delectable and Sumptuous, shares her favourite recipes for decadent dinners with friends and family in this accessible little book. There are recipes for formal dinners around a beautifully laid table with all your best cutlery and glassware, but also for casual meals served in front of the fire on a cold winter's evening. You can choose to tackle the stuffed shoulder of lamb, or the wonderfully simple, but delicious, tagliolini with pine nuts, sage and lemon. Marlene makes the romance of French cooking accessible to all South African cooks.

The recipes in this book can be used every day of the week for that one main course we cook daily, whether we’re cooking for the family or entertaining our friends. Divided into just three chapters – Meat, Poultry and Seafood – the recipes range from well-known classics to modern dishes, many with a Continental influence. All are prepared with the author’s flair for home-cooked, hearty and delicious meals.

Plate would make the perfect house-warming gift for those relatively inexperienced in the kitchen, but even seasoned cooks will find inspiration.
