Summary: Practical, tasty S.A. dishes
Comment: "South African Gourmet Food & Wine" by Myrna Rosen and Lesley Loon

Don't be fooled by the title; this book is for all of us. Not only for experienced or gifted cooks but for those, like me, trying their hand for the first time. I particularly liked being told how many guests each recipe is designed to feed. I liked being given the option of measuring in either Metric or Imperial and I liked the simple way each recipe is explained. I showed it to a Master Chef friend and, despite his twenty years of experience, he was impressed.

Two old favourites that caught my eye were a Cape Malay dish called "Bobotie" based on fish and spices and "Monkey Gland Steak" with a terrific sauce of onions, mushrooms, Worcestershire and tomato sauce.

At random here are a few more : "Boerewors" (a typically South African barbeque sausage), Tomato Bredie (a tasty meat and tomato stew), Melktert (milk tart), Watermelon jam, Herring in mustard sauce, Sundried tomato and roasted garlic spread, Bombay curried banana chicken soup, Fish steak au poivre, Herb crusted rack of lamb and so on and so on and so on.....

This book is a must if you have ever lived in, or visited, South Africa. It will bring back many memories.

Summary: A beautifully produced book with mouthwatering recipes
Comment: As an ex-South African I have always admired Myrna Rosen's previous cookery books. This one, written in collaboration with Leslie Loon,has exceeded all my expectations. I have prepared a number of recipes for guests from this book, they worked out beautifully and received accolades from all. The presentation of the recipes is well conceived, light-hearted and user-friendly. All in all a book to keep for the generations to come

Summary: Great Cooking!
Comment: I had a wonderful dinner party and made the Bobotie dish. It was a great success! Most of my guests wanted the recipe. I told them to just buy the book because there are so many wonderful dishes and they are easy to make. I have had the pleasure of eating both Lesley and Myrna's cooking, they are both wonderful cooks.
