"A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy." Albert Einstein
Spending some time at our farm in Calitzdorp, I've been inspired to cook and explore some great recipes by Karen Dudley, Yotam Ottolenghi & Sami Tamimi. This has led me to a renewed interest in styling, making use of my ceramics with beautiful ingredients, and delighting the senses as I go.
I have spent the past two weeks on holiday and delighting in cooking from Yotam Ottolenghi's book Jerusalem which he co-wrote with Sami Tamimi. The food was so delicious, inspired me to continue making these fabulous dishes on my return...alas so far, all intentions have fallen by the wayside..!
However I was delighted this week to get a message from Africa Nova to say that Ottolenghi had been in their store and purchased a big bowl and some small cups of mine - wonderful coincidence!
