MasterChef South Africa: The Cookbook

So we decided to go with cooking at home, and the cookbooks that get us there being true Master Chefs, or as close to what we think we are capable of.

In MEDIA & GASTRONOMY, we thought it apt to look at South African Cookbooks only, cause we have SO much talent, why would we go elsewhere. Are we going to be healthy, you know what no, that's your choice, we want you to be smart, and if the meal uses not-so-healthy ingredients, then eat healthy the rest of the week just so you can have that meal.

Happy cooking and great tastes are essential to feeling good, and totally depriving yourself can lead to misery, which can cause illnesses, SO NO, eat what you want, just be smart as to how often and when. If you are a diabetic, make better choices, you should know what you can and cant eat.

Right, lets start with a cracker of a book....

They came, they cooked, but only one conquered!
Never before have South Africans been this gripped by a food phenomenon quite as much as they have with MasterChef South Africa. Now with, MasterChef South Africa  - The Cookbook, the gazillion fans following every beat of the whisk can recreate the dishes that made total celebrities of the 18 hopefuls.

This book has it all, Behind the Scenes Moments, Flashbacks of Mystery Box Challenges, and the gruelling pressure tests, not to forget the Invention Tests that had us wondering what on earth they'd pull off with those ingredients.

Want to make Samantha's croquettes with all the trimmings in less than an hour, Deena's prawn curry, sweet-toothed Thy's fruit tartlets, 'Meraai se Hoenderppaai' and Denningvleis? This is the go-to book for these and more. Love them or hate them, the judges also make their mark. Bake Chef Benny's carrot cake, glam it up with Chef Andrew's brioche crusted springbok and perform under pressure with Pete's double baked souffle' in the oven.

Beautiful photographs guide the home cookbook on how to plate the food like a pro, and if you are lacking in basic skills, the cheffy secrets, tips and how-to advise includes easy step-by-step instructions taking the mystery out of filleting.

You can find the book anywhere, on-line at Kalahari.com, WEBSITE ORDER PAGE
