As a kid this delicious culinary creation would have been my worst nightmare – olives, onions and anchovies, are you joking?? As a ‘grown up’ I am so thrilled to be able to delight in the salty, resinous and piquey flavours that make this classic so classic :-) The Food Fox has treated us with this super French recipe this week on the ever lovely Pretty Blog. Find that recipe here and go and make yourself a pastis to get in the French mood…

Hmmmm… garlic… it’s definitely something worth daydreaming about, especially when you’re imagining you’re on holiday in Greece, dipping your toes into the sparkling med and snacking on the Food Fox’s delectable garlic pitas with thick, yoghurty tzatziki and juicy olives… Note to self: book holiday now!! Find the divine recipe here on the lovely Pretty Blog.

Food from the Karoo, also known as FFTK, is the brain child of Tania Harrison, a Karoo plaas-meisjie who likes to take time out from her hectic career as director of the Cape Town based design agency Code, to make the most of her family farm in the Karoo. She sells the most amazing meat products and farm specialities from Karoo lamb and free-range pork to the world’s best buttermilk rusks and straight-from-the-farm-kitchen ‘Farmalade’. Scrumptious, and you can take my word for it! And there is so much more… go and take a good look around.
