The famous foodie proves it with simple and scrumptious recipes her new cookbook, 'Hearty Home Food with Sipho'. She gives us a taste
Even my book is all about budget. I wanted the book to be for everyone. If you feel you can add some artichokes to a recipe, that's fine because you can afford to buy artichokes.I worked for different families for 19 years. Some of those recipes are for dishes I've cooked so many times I can just close my eyes [and do them]. Some recipes I learned from my grandmother.
For this book I didn't want to make a mistake. With my first cookbook I didn't think about my target market. This book is so different. I said,"let me think, what do people like?" I would post different recipes on social media and found that people are interested in normal recipes. You include some basics such as sauces and dips and stocks in your cookbook. Is that also a way for you to make cooking accessible for people?
Yes. I just want people to start learning how to make things from scratch. Make your own stock, make your own sauces and freeze them. I love sauces but I don't like sauces that are store-bought. The only salad dressing I would eat is my own dressing at home - just a simple dressing. I love soya sauce but it's expensive so I'll use soya sauce and olive oil - things that are very simple. Make your own pasta. It's not rocket science - you just need eggs, flour and salt.
