Short rib has always been one of my very favorite things to eat. I had it first at The Test Kitchen in Cape Town a few years ago when I worked there as a waiter. One of the chefs made it for the staff one afternoon and I was instantly hooked.
Star anise is the truly the star of this dish. Though subtle, magic happens when it simmers away in the stout and beef juices.

Charred Grapefruit Roast Chicken with Rosemary and Green Beans

by Rudi Stroebel Picard

To BBQ or not to BBQ. That is the question.
Fire means flavor and can transform the simplest meals into a memory that lasts forever. Not everybody has the time to build a fire and wait for coals though, and these fancy grilling machines costs a lot of money, but there are simpler ways to get that charred effect.

Pea and Smoked Ham Soup

by Rudi Stroebel Picard

pea and smoked ham soup with fresh bread

It’s the time of year when all we seem to do is eat. There are year end work functions, Christmas parties, family gatherings and seeing good friends one last time before everybody scatters across the globe on vacation. So much great food is consumed and very often there are tons of left-overs that sits in the fridge. Here is a simple recipe to rework your smoked ham into an incredibly tasty soup that can be frozen for some other lazy evening, or eaten as a starter at your next dinner party.

Spicy Chorizo and Vegetable Stuffed Peppers

by Rudi Stroebel Picard

spicy chorizo vegetable stuffed peppers

You know when your body is craving a very specific taste sensation but you can’t quite put your finger on it? That was me today. I had a smoothy. Nope. Then eggs on toast. Not that either. I nibbled on some toasted nuts. Urgh!

Then it hit me around 5pm: I would feel like a punch in the face by a fist full of spices dipped in lemon juice. And so I came up with this little gem. The great thing about this dish is that can be done way in advance, which makes it perfect for a large dinner party so that you can spend the evening with your guests. Yay!!!

The secret to a fabulous Bolognese is time. And lots of it. But these days who has time to hover around a stewing pot for 6 hours, right? Kids, partners, work, family, all wanting a little piece of you.
This recipe saves you time without compromising on flavor. Let’s call it a cheeky cheat (in the most positive sense), shall we?
