Description
If the road to reconciliation runs through a country’s belly, Evita Bezuidenhout’s book is a recipe for peace. The whole country, the entire world is invited to her table where everyone can feast on dishes like green bean bredie and cumin chicken with sweet potatoes. Who would rant and rave with their mouth full of walnut balls, or pampoenkoekies, or baked apple clowns? Liewe aarde, her generous helpings of rabbit in red wine or guinea fowl with sultanas and hanepoot would only provoke brotherly love. But take note, her book includes recipes for diabetics and vegetarians, Halaal and Kosher dishes, and even recipes to keep you in such lovely shape as she. Cooking for little ones, picnics or Christmas, Evita’s cookery is delectable magic.

Ook in Afrikaans beskikbaar as Evita se kossie sikelela.
