We take the humble breadcrumb-and-cheese topped baked gratin and give it an earthy autumnal twist. Turnips are really cheap and they are surprisingly delicious and add the best texture ever once cooked. We also love them in soups and stews, but this pear and turnip gratin is must for meat-free Monday this week.
We don’t know how much more we can say about this winter warmer. Let us show you how to make your own pizza dough from scratch and then use it to put together this local is lekker boerewors pizza, spiced up with Peppadews, red onion and chutney.
So we thought making French toast from frozen waffles would be a great idea, and we weren’t disappointed! We decided to go with warm savoury flavours to complement the cooling weather.

It’s time to indulge in the last of summer’s stone fruits by making these nectarine milkshakes for your guests (or just for you!) this weekend. If you are having people over, we recommend you get a bit fancy and serve them mini milkshakes as they arrive. Set up a table with a selection of nuts, sprinkles and fresh fruit for a milkshake buffet that will be a hit with kids and grown-ups alike, much like this recipe. Spike them some rum for the adults and add a bit of pineapple for some extra zing.

These babies are fully loaded with all our favourite Mediterranean ingredients. For these stuffed mushrooms, we used portobellos because they are shaped like upside-down umbrellas, making them perfect for filling. But you can use any large flat mushroom.
Forget about pushing rice to the side of the plate as a staple side or a sauce soaker. With our delicious rice pot, it becomes a dish all on its own. This one-pot dinner is packed with spicy flavours from the chorizo and paprika, plus we added some white wine as well, because, well, why not? Tuck in!
