A recipe inspired by a chat with my friend Nicola, sharing memories of her childhood in Malawi. Of her late mother, tending to this slow cooked stew of meat, and vegetables, wine & spices. A mothered dish that comforts and binds her and now us, to such a special moment in time.

In my future “How to write a cookbook & how to get published…” talk, newsletter, workshop or whatever it becomes… my first answer to this most popular question is… To me, writing books is not a race. It’s a journey!
