For this rich and comforting lamb shank recipe, a tomato base is used with mustard, fresh herbs and lemon – always a delicious combination.
Carrot stew with star anise
The hearty stew uses basic ingredients, with the addition of whole star anise to give it an aromatic flair. Star anise is delicious with both carrots, cabbage and beef or pork. One could easily play with different spices to ring the changes. Cumin seeds or even whole cloves and all spice berries are good options, or use a Chinese five spice mixture instead.

Mild winter curry
South Africans love curries – in any shape, form and strength. Curries are considered part of the rainbow of dishes in South African cuisine and synonymous with winter. I developed this recipe many years ago for The AMC Book and it remains my go-to curry recipe.
Curries can be served with a range of side dishes and accompaniments. From just rice to spooning it into a roti, on naan bread and topped with a fresh salsa or a dollop of plain yoghurt to soften the spicy flavours of a curry. Fresh coriander leaves and a homemade sambal are fabulous with all of these options and complements the spices beautifully. Cook up many a curry this winter.
Beesvleisbredie met kool & appel
Die geurigheid van ’n winterbredie bring vir elkeen sy eie herinneringe en almal het hul gunsteling. Dalk is dit tamatiebredie, waterblommetjiebredie, of ’n bredie met kluitjies bo-op. Soveel groente is lekker in ’n bredie en verskillende snitte stowevleis kan gebruik word, solank dit net lank en stadig gaar word, tot dit sag en geurig is.
