If the road to reconciliation run through a country’s belly, Evita’s cookbook provides it’s recipe for peace. She
invites the whole country, the whole world to her table
where everybody can feast on dishes like green bean
bredie and cumin chicken with sweet potatoes. Who’ll be
able to moan and groan between mouthfuls of walnut
balls and pampoenkoekies, or baked apple clowns? Truly,
there’s nothing like a generous helping of rabbit in red
wine or guinea fowl with sultanas & hanepoot to bring
forth brotherly love. And liewe aarde, you will definitely
want to be best friends with the orange trifle and Tannie’s
melktert.
Evita is always well prepared and includes
recipes for diabetics and vegetarians, Halaal and Kosher
dishes, and even recipes to keep as fit as she does.
Whether she entertains her grandchildren, caters for a
picnic or plans a Christmas menu, Evita cooks up a storm.
Richly illustrated by artist Linda Vicquery, the expert
behind the dishes. Also included: many photographs of
Evita and a preface by none other than Sophia Loren.
