Le Braai

More about the book

Kobus Botha was raised in the Karoo, but this boerseun has firmly established himself in France. Setting up his custom-made mobile barbecue at fêtes, functions and outdoor events, he dishes up a taste of South Africa in his own unique style. Le Braai is a collection of recipes that capture the larger-than-life spirit of this genial giant, whose personality is matched by the boldness of his dishes. Cooking over an open fire has been a way of life for as long as Kobus can remember; his dishes evoke the camaraderie that comes when friends gather around the braai. Favourites such pork ribs, burgers, prawns peri-peri and homemade sausage are given touch of French flair, while brief introductions provide anecdotes as well as insight into how to turn your tjop n wors into a meal with a touch of ooh la la !
