Cape Malay Cooking Class
General Information
The Cape Malay people of South Africa are a vibrant and colourful community, with firm roots in family traditions, religion and social activities. As with many homes, the mother is the backbone of the household, and the food is an integral part of it all. Come join our resident Cape Malay Cooking extraordinaire as she teaches you the art of making the perfect family meal, from scratch. Learn how to make a good hearty chicken curry with the right amount of spices, to samosas wrapped by your hands. Some other delectable treats are the spicy chilli bites, sambles to accompany the curry and the sweet dessert known as ‘Koesisters’. Enjoy the ambience of cooking in our hostess’ kitchen and get to meet her family, but please be respectful to their religion, as there is no alcohol allowed in a Muslim home.
