The kitchens of Cape Town are alive with flavour, history, and heart, and now those treasured family recipes could take centre stage in a brand-new community recipe collection.
Flavours of Cape Town, a Cape Community Media initiative, is inviting home cooks from across its communities to submit their most loved family recipes for a chance to be featured in a beautiful coffee table-style recipe book celebrating the city's rich and diverse culinary heritage.
From Cape Malay favourites and spicy Indian curries, to classic Afrikaans bakes and modern-day twists, the competition is open to all dishes that tell a story and celebrate the taste of Cape Town.
Winning recipes will be showcased in the Flavours of Cape Town recipe book, complete with professional photographs, personal interviews, and cooking tips. Winners will also receive fantastic prizes from our sponsors.
To be part of this community cookbook, share your family recipes with us by emailing your recipe, along with a photo of the final dish, and a short description of its history, to info.acm@acm.co.za
