A paean to township food and culture, and a joy to read (and to have). At least two recipes have key ingredients which don't feature in the instructions: Cremora Tart p.154 (ingredient: condensed milk) and Coconut Squares p.164 (ingredient: apricot jam). These omissions could easily have been avoided. Despite this the book is still a treasure trove of information, lovingly - and visually beautifully - presented.

Excellent cookbook, filled with the Sotho recipes – a culture I connected to coming from Bloemfontein. Thank you for sharing your stories Hope Malau!
