Nothing shouts ‘wild-night-out remedy’ like a bowl of mom’s chicken soup. It might not be the most conventional hangover food but it works. By adding a cup of noodles you will restore your body’s sodium and water levels. Chicken, and some vegetables, contain cysteine which gives the liver a much-needed pick up.

Read MoreCroft Chickens are free-range, happy hens. I use Candy and Chris’ delicious, plump livers and their whole chickens and can also recommend their pies, rolls, spatchcocks and stuffed roasts too. What is a tasty roast chicken without a super crispy roast potato? Try the accompanying recipe. It promises to please.
Read MoreNothing can compare when it comes to goat’s cheese from Fran’s Swissland Cheese. If you live in KZN I suggest you visit her farm on the Midlands Meander. Her St Maure, slightly warmed on a bruschetta with home-marinated beetroot, is a delicious snack.
Read MoreBack to ‘local is lekker’ and the suppliers I am currently using. Pork pies, sausages, sliced gammon and well-smoked, streaky bacon from Caz, of Dargle Valley Pork, are top class. They help make breakfast memorable. Pork mince balls with chunky barbeque/pineapple sauce is an unusual dish and worth a try.
Read MoreI would like to see more rabbit dishes on our country-restaurant menus. It is often our best seller on a Sunday at Hartford House. Try Ziggy’s New-Zealand rabbits and make a superb hot terrine or casserole.
Read MoreA preferred choice of mine was coronation chicken with toasted almonds. I had never eaten this before my training days at the Christina Martin School of Food and Wine and had always jumped at the opportunity to make it. Poaching and stuffing apricots into chicken breast, wrapping in plastic and poaching was a method I enjoyed. This is probably the reason I use the sous vide (cooking under vacuum in a water bath) process today. The creaminess of the sauce, the fresh fruity flavour with the crisp freshly-roasted almonds makes a delicious light-lunch option. Serve with a freshly-picked herb salad.
