Punch is one of those homemade beverages that you find at a party, a bridal shower, baby welcome or for no reason at all and you just want to treat the family or yourself! It could seem so daunting to prepare it but as you shall see below when we […]
Stewing is one of my favourite ways of preparing chicken. I find that when you sear it first you seal in a lot of flavour and it’s of course more appealing visually, having that lovely caramelised colour vs the white washed look that sometimes comes along with boiling it straight […]
This dish was a winner. Everyone enjoyed themselves to the last bit. I especially loved how the pecan nuts brought in a complementing texture and taste to the whole dish. If you’re tired of doing your boerewors, or any other sausage for that matter, in the same old way then […]
It had been a long while since I last made pizza. My kids had been asking me time and again to make some to no avail! So when they saw me kneading the dough, preparing the base sauce and topping and smelled the all too familiar aroma that filled the […]
Spaghetti and meatballs is one of those common dishes that are enjoyed at the dinner table by both the young and old. It’s a pretty simple fix with an amazing result in flavour. Make sure you use fat free, a.k.a steak mince as it works much better and is obviously […]

The way this beef is prepared leaves it so tender, so delicate… so full of flavour. The idea is not to rush the cooking so the beef comes out super tender and “melts” in your mouth. It’s perfect with mashed potatoes but can also be served with rice or Sadza. […]
Fillet is one of those tender cuts from beef. I love how you can so easily prepare it. I know it could be intimidating to cook but it need not be. I kept this one right here very simple with an accompanying chunky mushroom sauce and it went down so […]
My family and I absolutely enjoyed this meal. The flavours were intensely good and this is no exaggeration! You can serve this with roast or boiled potatoes, rice or pasta. I used Montana Meats’ fat free mince and it worked perfectly. I don’t like mince that oozes out fat when […]
