Friends, I just realized that I haven't shared ANY Friends, I just realized that I haven't shared ANY of the recipes of my latest book, Simply Seasonal on my blog yet! It's winter in the Boland, so what better way to celebrate than with a batch of seasonal, fabulous waterblommetjie tempura with a punchy soy, citrus, ginger dipping sauce. It's been a favourite in our house since I wrote this recipe in 2020 - even my picky eating 11-year old daughter cannot get enough. It's easy and very rewarding, do give it a try!

These pistachio, raspberry & white chocolate bisco These pistachio, raspberry & white chocolate biscottis were made to pair with the brand new release of @stellenbosch_hills’ Muscat de Hambourg (what a stunning little bottle!). I had the privilege of being part of the recipe development as part of the media drop for this campaign, so a few lucky recipients will be getting a neatly packed little tin of these delicious treats today, baked by me! I love being part of campaigns like these, and have done quite a few over the past few year. Recipe now on my blog. PS: My blog recently had a facelift - some of my older images still need to be resized to fit the generous new width, but it will happen over the coming week or two. Let me know what you think! #biscotti #muscat

My kitchen is ALWAYS stocked with flour, mozzarell My kitchen is ALWAYS stocked with flour, mozzarella, canned tomatoes 🥫 and an everyday red wine🍷. Making pizza 🍕 is a staple for us -  a twice-a-week go-to dinner that pleases everyone and gets the feel-goods flowing. This is a margarita with slow roasted tomatoes, organic spinach and locally produced feta. Thank you @anthonijrupertwyne for the generous basket filled with all of my favourites!! That Sangiovese - I can drink it every day of the week. And their EVOO is a winner.
