A Food Love Story by Onezwa Mbola
This book is more than a collection of recipes — it is a narrative journey through food, memory and heritage. Onezwa’s simple, hearty and delicious dishes connect people to the land, to each other and to ancestral traditions. Rooted in her upbringing in the Eastern Cape, her cooking reflects an authentic, sustainable and deeply personal approach to South African cuisine. The cookbook is divided into 4 sections: 1. Back to basics – bread, pastries, pasta and noodles; 2. The foods that raised me – fish, seafood, and imifino (greens); 3. The foods that found me – the global South, the East, and the global North; 4. The food that I come home to – friends and family, something sweet, sauces, preserves, pastes and condiments. Her tasty recipes will inspire her million+ social-media followers as well as newcomers to explore the joys of cooking.
