The South African Illustrated Cookbook

About this book

The South African Illustrated Cookbook is a compilation of recipes dear to South Africans from all walks of life and traditions. It includes Xhosa Cape Malay Zulu English Indian Afrikaans Portuguese and new South African dishes. Illustrator Lehla Eldridge has captured various landmarks - both formal and informal - around South Africa to accompany these local recipes that she has garnered from cooks around the country. Her watercolor illustrations are whimsical humorous and charming yet perceptive of the countrys rich and varied influences. A wonderful gift for an ex-pat or for the culinary traveler!
