A culinary journey for ex-pats and travellers alike.

The South African Illustrated Cookbook is a compilation of recipes dear to South Africans from all walks of life and traditions.It includes Xhosa, Cape Malay, Zulu, English, Indian, Afrikaans, Portuguese and new South African dishes.

Illustrator Lehla Eldridge has captured various landmarks – both formal and informal – around South Africa to accompany these local recipes that she has garnered from cooks around the country. Her watercolour illustrations are whimsical, humorous and charming, yet perceptive of the country’s rich and varied influences.

A rich selection of recipes taking in soups, salads, game, seafood, and breads, the book  is fully illustrated with vivid watercolours by the author making it a delightful gift book for any foodie.

'Lehla is one of those amazing friends who is always full of fun, passion, love, patience and artistic talent. That's her personality and her cookbook reflects it perfectly. Cook with a big smile on your face, a dollop of love, plenty of passion and masses of colour'Michaela Strachan
