Cookbook review: Justin Bonello… Cooks for friends

Posted on 14 December 2011

‘Whether your kitchen is in the great outdoors, somewhere on a beach or at home, this is the kind of book that is best enjoyed with your friends. And remember, there are no bad cooks . . . just friends who aren’t hungry enough!’ says Justin Bonello of his latest cookbook, Justin Bonello… Cooks For Friends. You can almost smell the beer and braai smoke when paging through the book, a collection of recipes from Justin’s mates, travels through Africa, camping trips and weekends away. The recipes, which are easy and will make even the most unconfident of cooks feel accomplished, are perfect for outdoor lunches, braais and summer dinner parties with family and friends. The chicken in a kassie; tomato and lamb potjie with gnocchi; biltong, leek and asparagus quiche and peppermint crisp tart are sure to feature on many tables and beach blankets this summer.

Check out this mushroom and potato salad recipe from the cookbook.
