This Lemon & Herb Pulled Chicken is simply delicious. Slow-roasted with fresh lemon and fresh herbs with a hint of garlic, until it's pull-apart tender. The pan juices make the base of a light sauce that the shredded chicken gets tossed in.
ℹ️ 🥔LC, 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 💛RF, 🍬SF.
💡 Serve with rice or potatoes and a side salad. Or use as a taco/tortilla/wrap filling with shredded lettuce and grated cheese. Will also be yummy as a pancake filling, with an optional dollop of mayo.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top (pan-fry on medium-low heat).
💰 R53 pp.

Best Classic Beef Mince is a "classic" in the sense that it tastes so familiar - nothing exotic or unusual added to it. Simply mince that's treated right and seasoned in such a way that really enhances the meaty flavour, and that's what makes it the "best". Diced onions and garlic fried until slightly sweet, ground coriander, tomato paste, a dash of Worcestershire sauce, and beef stock. Not too saucy, but definitely not dry either.
ℹ️ 🥔LC, 💛RF, 🍬SF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF. 🌾 Trace amount of gluten.
💡 Serve with rice or mash, and veggies of your choice. But this can pretty much go with anything! With a jacket potato and veg, on toast for breakfast or in a snackwich, or as a pancake filling with some grated cheese.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Heat & Eat. Microwave, or stove-top (pot or pan). Can also be eaten cold in a pinch.
💰 R55 pp.

These Jamaican Chicken Sosaties are so delicious, I'll definitely be making a few extra portions for myself again 😄. Tenderised chicken breast seasoned with my home-made Jamaican Jerk spice mix (my best), and skewered with pieces of onion and green pepper.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔LC, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 💛LF. 🍬 Spice mix contains a small amount of sugar. 🔥.
💡 Serve with a big mixed salad, or deskewered into a pita with salad. Also good for packed lunches.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Can be eaten hot or cold. Microwave.
💰 R57 pp.

Next up, the decadently delicious 👑 Smoked Salmon & Sundried Tomato Pasta Sauce! Smoked salmon pieces and sliced sun-dried tomatoes, combined in a cream-based sauce with some golden sautéed onions, grilled red peppers, a touch of garlic and just a hint of chilli. The beautiful pink sauce is finished off with fresh chopped spring onions and a grating of pecorino cheese.
ℹ️ 🥚EF, 🍬SF. 🌾(small amount), 🐄, 🐟. 🌶️ Very Mild 1/5.
💡 Serve with a flat/ribbon pasta like fettuccine, and a crisp side salad.
❄️ Not 100% sure this will always freeze perfectly, as there's a possibility the sauce may split slightly. If you do and it does, stir vigorously whilst reheating - that should sort it out.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top - gentle heat, stirring often.
💰 R67 pp.

Of all the 💚 vegetarian dishes I made last couple of years, I still think the Lentil & Veg Curry is my favourite. A properly-made curry with layers of flavours and different textures with the addition of some vegetables.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🌟low-GI, 🥔🌟CC, 💛🌟LF, 🥚EF, 💚V. 🐄 (k**b of butter for the spices), 🍬 (pinch sugar). 🌶️ Mild 2½/5. 🌟, 🌍.

Lemon Butter Chicken
One of my food heroes is the late Italian chef Antonio Carluccio; OBE nogal, and it was at his Covent Garden restaurant that Jamie Oliver got his first cheffing job. Carluccio's Supreme di Pollo al Limone / Lemon Butter Chicken is an excellent example of how Italian cuisine uses simplicity and quality to perfection ❤️. Chicken breasts lightly dusted with seasoned cornflour and then gently pan-fried with a k**b of butter. Fresh lemon juice, lemon zest and capers deglaze the pan and make the most sublime sauce for the chicken.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔🌟LC, 🥚EF, 🍬🌟SF. 🐄, 💛.
💡 Serve with rice or mash, and salad or veg. Or slice up the chicken and serve over a bowl of hot fettuccine pasta with a sprinkling or freshly grated parmesan 😋.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or pan-fry.
💰 R52 pp.

This Bazaar-style Beef Mince Curry is very nostalgic, but it gets a proper update with my own special blend of spices. It really is a ❤️ firm favorite and _so_ convenient to have in the freezer.
ℹ️ 💛RF, 🍬SF, 🐄DF, 🥚EF. 🌶️2/5.
💡 Serve in a vetkoek, or with basmati rice and a salad garnish.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top.
💰 R60 pp.

My siblings loved these Asian-style Pork Meatballs so much that I put them on the menu, and they've been extremely popular ever since. Seasoned with soy sauce, spring onions, sesame oil, and just a hint of chilli, they really are ridiculously moreish.
ℹ️ 🥚EF, 🐄DF. 🌾+🍬 (soy sauce), 🌾WG (oats).
💡 Serve with stir-fry veg and noodles, or mash and peas. Also works great in lunchboxes.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Serve hot or cold. Pan-fry on medium-high heat, or microwave.
💰 R50 pp.

The "problem" with making really good home-made Beef Burger Patties 🍔 is that it makes it very hard to eat the cheap stuff again 🙊. So I always make a few extra to keep in the freezer for "burger emergencies" 😎. Start with good quality lean beef mince, freshly chopped onions and herbs, my own spice mixture that's reminiscent of boerewors (coriander, pepper, nutmeg) with some added smoked paprika, and just enough blitzed oats to bind it all together. No funny stuff. A generous 200g patty, supplied raw unless specifically requested cooked.
ℹ️ 🥔RC, 🌟🌾WG, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 🍬SF.
💡 Of course you don't have to serve it as a burger patty - I've been known to stick it in a pita with some crisp greens and a dollop of mayo 😁.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Actually best cooked from frozen 😎. Pan-fry or 🔥 braai.
💰 R47 pp.
✏️ 150g patties made on request. @ R35 pp.

This Spinach & Feta Quiche happens to be 💚 vegetarian, but contains enough eggs and cheese for a good helping of protein. Seasoned with fresh herbs and black pepper.
ℹ️ I will be making these crust less and in square/rectangular foil containers.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🍬SF, 💚V. 🐄, 🥚.
💡 Great for a ligter meal or even a brunch, and ideal for a packed lunch.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Eat hot or cold. Microwave or oven.

This Chicken Curry is very popular, and similar to Butter Chicken. Tender chicken breast pieces in a delicately spiced mild curry sauce with coconut milk. The addition of carrots and butternut give it a slight sweetness and make this a hearty dish.
🌶️ 2/5 (very mild, but fragrant)
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 💛🌟RF, 🥔🌟CC. 💛🐄 Contains a small amount of butter.
💡 Serve with white basmati rice and a plain green vegetable (eg steamed broccoli).
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top (gentle heat).
💰 R68 pp.

A good Classic Beef Bolognese Sauce is a labour of love and not something that can be rushed. A very firm ❤️ favourite! 🇮🇹
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 🍬SF, 🥔🌟CC, 💛RF. 🍷 (trace alcohol from wine).
💡 Serve with pasta and a sprinkle of grated parmesan cheese. Or with the Mash and a side salad. Or whichever way inspiration leads you. 😉
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top.
💰 R67 pp.

Perfect for one of these rainy evenings is some good old-fashioned Pork Bangers & Onion Gravy with Mash and peas. All those years living in England had to leave some sort of mark on me 😆. Fresh pork sausages from the butchery, slowly pan-fried until they're browned beautifully but still juicy. Then some properly caramelised onions (1 pan takes at least an hour 👀), good quality beef stock and Worcestershire sauce to make a delicious onion gravy. Comfort food at its best!
ℹ️ 🥚EF. 🌾 (trace gluten), 🍬LS, 🐄 (butter for gravy).
💡 Ideally served with the Mash and peas. But would also work with slappap and roast veg, or rice and 2 veg.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave, or stove-top over medium-low heat.
💰 R52 pp.

Spinach & Feta Stuffed Chicken Breast is a bit labour-intensive to prepare, but it is só good (and ❤️ popular). The spinach is blanched and chopped before being mixed with lots of ricotta, feta and fresh herbs with a grating of nutmeg. The chicken breasts get a slight whack with the tenderising hammer (one of the most satisfying jobs in the kitchen) before being carefully cut and filled. Lightly brushed with olive oil and seasoned before being baked in the oven. I make a light gravy for this with chicken stock and aromatics and a hint of lemon.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔🌟LC, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 💛🌟RF. 🐄. 🌟
💡 Serve with rice or the Mash and a vegetable of your choice.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave.
💰 R52 pp.

Greek Fassoulada Soup. This substantial vegetable and bean soup comes from the Greek countryside and combines all those lovely Mediterranean flavours of garlic, thyme, and lemon with peppers, shredded spinach and cannellini beans. Topped off with fresh parsley and crumbled feta. Yum!
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔LC, 💛RF, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 💚V. 🐄.
💡 Serve with a piece of crusty bread. And of course nothing stops you from adding some shredded roast chicken for the meat-eaters.
💰 R45 pp.

This Paprika Pulled Chicken is made in the same manner as the highly popular Lemon & Herb dish, but seasoned like my Paprika Roast Chicken - paprika, oregano, lemon, and parsley.
ℹ️ 🥔LC, 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 💛RF, 🍬SF.
💡 Serve with rice or potatoes and a side salad. Or use as a taco/tortilla/wrap filling with shredded lettuce and grated cheese. Will also be yummy as a pancake filling, with an optional dollop of mayo.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave or stove-top (pan-fry on medium-low heat).
💰 R52 pp.

Gardner's Beef Bobotie doesn't really need an introduction, but for my new clients 👉🏽 this old family recipe skips the raisins (uses grated apples instead) and uses oats as a binder instead of bread. Great to have an extra one in the freezer!
ℹ️ 💛RF, 🍬RS, 🌾🌟WG. 🐄, 🥚, 🌾 (trace gluten).
💡 Serve with the Yellow Rice and sambals (chutney, tomato & onion salsa, sliced banana).
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Heat and eat. Microwave or oven.
💰 R70 pp.

I don't often put soups on the menu during summer, but with the continuous rain forecast up to next weekend - I could really do with a lekker light soup for a chilly evening. And this Indonesian Chicken Noodle & Peanut Soup would be perfect for the job.
The base is a light, fragrant curry made slightly creamy by the addition of coconut milk. Shredded roast chicken gets added to this together with rice vermicelli noodles, peanut butter and toasted peanuts for crunch. A dash of lime juice and a sprinkling of fresh coriander finishes it off.
ℹ️ 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 💛RF. 🥜 Peanuts. 🌾G (trace - soy sauce). 🌶️ 1½/5
💡 Substantial enough for a light meal on its own.
❄️ Can be frozen. Reheat gently whilst stirring often.
💰 R48 pp.

A while back I made these Italian Meatballs for a function, and they were ridiculously good. These are the traditional Italian meatballs, made with a mixture of pork and beef mince. I imagine the pork used to be wild boar, and then I think of Asterix & Obelix and that makes me ridiculously happy about these meatballs. 🥰 The inclusion of fresh herbs and grated parmesan makes these very moreish.
ℹ️ 🍬SF. 🌾(gluten), 🥚, 🐄.
💡 Very versatile! Would be delicious with polenta (or regular _slappap_) or mash and veg, or with pasta and a herbed tomato sauce. Great for lunchboxes.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Can be eaten hot or cold. Pan-fry or microwave.
💰 R52 pp.

Firstly, the very popular ❤️❤️ - tannie Magde's Tomato & Chutney Chicken. The original recipe comes from the 80s but I've made a few small changes over the years. Juicy pieces of chicken in a sauce that's a lovely combination of sweet and sour and savoury.
ℹ️ 🐄DF. 🍬, 🥚. 🌾 (trace gluten).
💡 Serve with rice and a green vegetable, or the Special Loaded Rice.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ "Heat & Eat". Reheat in the microwave, or in a pot over medium heat, stirring regularly.
💰 R60 pp.

Cottage Pie surely doesn't need much of a description 😉. Suffice it to say that this is one of my best-sellers - probably because it's so convenient to have an extra one in the freezer.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🍬SF. 💛RF (mince drained after browning). 🐄.
💡 Pretty much an all-in-one dish, but if you're very hungry you may want to add a side salad or a green vegetable like green beans or broccoli.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Can be just microwaved ("Heat & Eat"), but for best results bake in the oven as per instructions on the container lid.
💰 R75 pp.

This time I'll be making the 🔥 Greek Grilled Chicken 🇬🇷 with tenderised chicken breasts that have marinated overnight with lots of fresh Mediterranean herbs, lemon and garlic.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔LC, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 🍬SF, 💛🌟LF.
💡 Very versatile! Can be served with the Special Loaded Rice. Or serve sliced over a mixed salad with a dollop of tzatziki, or stuffed in a pita with some greens for a light lunch. Or slice and toss with some green pesto and serve on pasta. Or use for a chicken burger or sandwiches. The possibilities are endless!
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Serve hot or cold. Microwave or pan-fry.
💰 R46 pp.

My Special Loaded Veggie Rice has been on the menu a couple of times now, and it's always a big hit. Way back I "invented" it to go with chicken strips and to be eaten with one utensil out of a bowl in front of the television 😆 - to give you an idea of how convenient and versatile it is. It's loaded with veggies including onions, sweetcorn, and sweet peppers - it's pretty much your Starch and Veg for the meal already mixed together. 😋🥰
ℹ️ 🌟🌾WG (brown rice), 🌾GF, 🌟CC, 🌟💛LF, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 💚V. 💛May be "doctored" with a small k**b of butter.
💡 Very versatile!
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Microwave.

These *Beef Meatballs & Herbed Tomato Sauce* are making their appearance again due to popular demand. 🥰
Over the years I've made so many types of meatballs, but this one remains ❤️ a firm favourite. Mini beef meatballs seasoned with my secret concoction of herbs and spices, and quickly pan-fried until browned but still juicy. For this I'm making an Italian-style tomato and herb sauce, simmered for quite some time to reduce to a nice consistency and to concentrate all the flavours.
ℹ️ Meatballs - 🥔RC, 🌾WG, 🍬SF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 💛RF.

⚡ Microwave.
💰 R50 pp.

Couscous certainly doesn't have to be bland or boring! My *Special Couscous Salad* is made with wholewheat couscous and echoes the flavours of the Moroccan chicken, then gets loaded with dried fruit, nuts and seeds, cherry tomatoes, peppers, spring onions, etc.
ℹ️ 💛LF, 🌾🌟WG, 🥚EF, 🐄DF. 🍬 (dried fruit). 🌟
💡 Serve cold or warm. Perfect with the *Moroccan Chicken* and a handful of greens.

My *Chicken & Mushroom Pie* doesn't appear on the menu often, probably because it's a lot of work (a true labour of love). But it's delicious, so no wonder it got the most votes!

*Beef Ragú* is a meaty Italian sauce to serve with pasta or soft polenta (_slappap_ 😉). In this case it's made with beef shortrib and chuck that is slowly braised with red wine, onions, fresh tomatoes and lots of herbs until it falls apart and the sauce gets beautifully thick and flavourful.
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥔LC, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 🐄DF. 🍷. 💪🏽HP.

This *Slow-Roasted Pork Belly* doesn't appear on the menu often, but is making a special appearance for the holiday season. 🥰. _So_ flavourful, it only needs the simplest seasoning. But the tenderising and roasting is key, with that blast of high heat at the end to crisp the crackling. 🤤🤤🤤
ℹ️ 🌾GF, 🥚EF, 🐄DF, 🍬SF.
🎄 A wonderful addition to a special family meal.
💡 Serve with the *Roasted Potatoes* and salads.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Oven for best results (crisper crackling), or microwave.
💰 R85 pp.

I've been making a *Vegetarian Moussaka* for years now, and it's always been a big hit (even with those infamously fussy French men 😅). It doesn't appear on the menu very often 👑, simply because it's quite labour intensive. Instead of a meaty layer, I make a delicious lentil sauce with tomato and herbs. After layering with seared eggplant slices, it gets a béchamel custard topping that will bake to a golden-brown.
ℹ️ 💛RF, 🍬SF, 💚V. 🐄, 🥚. 🌟, 🌍.
🎄 A great vegetarian option for the festive season.
💡 Serve with a green side salad.
💡 Can be topped with some grated mozzarella before baking. (Not traditional, but decadently yummy) 😋
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ Bake in the oven.
💰 R67 pp.

My hand gets forced here 😆, because if you're having the *Pork Belly*, you really need some good, golden roast potatoes. However, making them _on the day_ is just too much 🙈. So here's the perfect solution - a *Duck Fat Roasting Potato Kit*! 🥳
The potatoes are prepped, part-cooked and seasoned, then frozen and packaged with the duck fat for roasting. All you have to do is follow the _very easy_ instructions when doing the final roasting.
ℹ️ 🐄DF, 🥚EF, 🍬SF, 💚V. 🌾, 💛.
💡 Would be great with the *Pork Belly* or *Chicken Pie*, but can of course be served with many other mains.
❄️ Supplied frozen. Can be kept frozen for up to 3 months.
⚡ Oven. Follow easy instructions on packaging.
✏️ Please specify if you would like this in a foil container. Otherwise it will be supplied in a bag.
💰 R19 pp.

*Bacon & Cheddar Muffins*
Crisp bits of bacon with cheddar and onions, seasoned with a bit of mustard.
ℹ️ 💪🏽 High protein, 🍬SF. 🥚, 🐄, 🌾.
💡 Great for breakfast, lunchboxes, perpetually hungry teenagers, etc.
❄️ Freezes well.
⚡ At their yummiest when heated a bit (oven, or microwave).
✏️ Order in multiples of 4 or 6.
💰 R16 each.

When this *Spiced Pumpkin Pie* / _pampoentert_ made its first appearance on the menu (as a side), pretty much everyone had it for dessert! 😂 While I was eating mine (also for dessert), I thought to myself "Wouldn't this be flippen amazing with a cookie crumb crust?" So here's the "improved" Pumpkin Pie, with crumb crust and spiced sugar sprinkle. 😋❤️😋
ℹ️ Contains wheat 🌾, 🐄 dairy, 🥚 eggs and 🍬 sugar.
💡 Great on its own, warmed or cold. But I've been told its also delicious with whipped cream and ice-cream... 👀
❄️ Freezes well.
✏️ Minimum order of 2 portions.
💰 R33 pp.
✏️ Can be ordered without the cookie crust, @ R27 pp.

My ouma Ounie's ❤️ *Choc Chip Cookies* are _very_ popular! These have been known to seduce banters to the sweet side 😉. And you better hide some because they are very moreish.
✏️ Order by the dozen.
💰 R36 per dozen.

💚

As always, if there's something you'd like to see on the menu, please let me know.
