Jenny Morris recently featured a recipe from A Taste of Israel by Nida Dequtiene in her weekly 48hOURS column.

In the column, Morris relates the story of the Lithuanian Dequtiene’s experience of Israel and the food blog that A Taste of Israel developed from. “This book” Morris writes, “is an open door into the kitchens of the ordinary Israeli home.” She adds that it contains recipes “for dishes that do much more than satisfy hunger”.

The recipe for Chraime (fish cooked in tomato sauce) featured in the article is a lesser-known alternative to Gefilte Fish.

Try it out for yourself:

Chraime (fish cooked in tomato sauce)

Serves 6

Ashkenazi Jews from central and Eastern Europe take great pride in their traditional gefilte fish recipes, but Sephardic Jews, hailing from the Iberian Peninsula or North Africa, don’t look twice at the boiled fish patties. Their culinary answer to this Ashkenazi favourite is chraime – saltwater fish stewed in a spicy, aromatic tomato sauce. From Shabbat, through Rosh Hashanah, to Pesach, not a single Sephardic holiday is without chraime.

Inè Reynierse se jongste kookboek, Low carb is lekker, is propvol smullekker resepte vir enigeen wat graag ‘n laekoolhidraat-hoëvet-leefstyl wil navolg.

Karla Janse van Vuuren het met Reynierse gesels oor haar boek, wat ook in Engels beskikbaar is as Low Carb is Lekker.

Reynierse vertel meer oor die grootste uitdagings van ‘n LKHV-leefstyl, asook die voordele en negatiewe aspekte van die dieet. Sy deel ook ‘n heerlike resep vir wortelkoek en gee raad aan diegene wat skrikkerig is vir ‘n LKHV-dieet.

Lees die artikel en probeer Reynierse se wortelkoekresep:

Beplan jy nog ’n boek en is daar enige resep wat jy nog graag wil decarb?

Vir seker! Ek gaan nie rus voordat ek nie ’n ordentlike vetkoek-, pizza- of koeksisterresep het nie.

Wortelkoek

Met ’n laekoolhidraat-leefstyl is ons geneig om die gebruik van groente wat onder die grond groei te beperk omdat hulle so ’n hoë koolhidraatinhoud het. Dié resep is aangepas om ’n klein bietjie wortel baie ver te rek terwyl jy steeds die wortel in elke happie proe, sonder al die koolhidrate wat daarmee saamkom.

Lewer 16 mediumgroot snye met 5 g koolhidrate per sny.

Is dit moontlik om ‘n heerlike Sondagmiddagmaal voor te berei sonder om koolhidrate te gebruik? Reynierse dink beslis so: “My ideale Sondagmaal sal beslis heerlike gebraaide varkrib met biltong-sampioenblomkoolkasserol insluit.”

Probeer die resepte vir varkrib met bedruipsous en blomkoolkasserol:

Varkrib met bedruipsous

​Jy het nodig:

Vir die rokerige braaibedruipsous:

4 e klapperolie

2 e fyngedrukte knoffel

MasterChef South Africa se gunsteling susters, Seline and Leandri van der Wat, het onlangs twee heerlike resepte met Netwerk24 gedeel uit hul jongste kookboek, TWO.

Die Van der Wat-susters deel nie net hul resepte vir oop bobotie-burgers met ’n bier-aïoli en nageregpizzas nie, maar ook staaltjies oor hul vroegste kosherinneringe en liefde vir sport.

Pizza vir nagereg? Ja, jy het reg gelees. Die susters vertel: “Maak gerus ’n nageregpizza oor die kole sodat dit ’n heerlike rokerige nasmaak gee aan die soet vulsels.”

Probeer die resep:

Nageregpizzas

Jy het nodig vir 8 pizzas:

- 370 ml water

- 10 ml kitsgis

- 800 g witbroodmeel

- 100 ml olyfolie

- 25 ml sout

- 50 ml versiersuiker

- 1 kg vars swartkersies

- 2 houertjies mascarpone

- 60 ml heuning

• Volledige resep: Netwerk24

“Selfs al is ons so lief vir sport, is dit die kosherinneringe wat daarmee gepaardgaan wat die skerpste in ons geheue uitstaan,” vertel die “sportmal” Van der Wats.

Probeer die resep vir oop bobotie-burgers met bier-aïoli, perfek vir die Rugbywêreldbeker:

Vir die aïoli:

die sap van ½ suurlemoen

2 eiergele

1 knoffelhuisie

sout en peper na smaak

200 ml kanola-olie

125 g komkommer (ongeveer ½ komkommer)

125 ml Heinekenbier, opsioneel

Só maak ’n mens:

1. As jy dit gebruik, verhit en prut die bier in ’n klein kastrol totdat dit met twee derdes reduseer. Dit sal die geur van die bier in ’n kleiner hoeveelheid vloeistof konsentreer. Laat dit afkoel voor gebruik.

Sam Gates follows a simple food philosophy: The best meals are those shared with the people we love. Her latest cookbook, Food for your Brood, contains practical and innovative recipes for the whole family.

Gates recently shared a recipe on the Mommy Matters show for a “Broodsters Breakfast Wrap” which consists of avo, egg, sweet chilli and cheese.

In the podcast, Gates says the breakfast wrap is one of her favourite meals because it requires virtually no cooking. “It’s an absolute brilliant breakfast,” she says, explaining how to prepare this wonderful meal.

Listen to the podcast and read the article for the complete recipe:

In this vegetarian beauty, avocado mash creates a cool base for chilli, cheese and other goodies piled high to make one enormous wrap. It will feed two if you’re unlucky enough to have to share, otherwise it makes a mega treat just for you if no one’s looking.

1 egg
5 ml (1 tsp) butter
1 large white wrap, the biggest you can
find
½ripe avocado, gently mashed
