[Sat, 14 Aug] Chef’s Table: Cape Malay Dinner with Lutfia

South Africa is a culturally diverse country having 11 official languages and numerous religions and cultures.

One of the predominant cultures is that of the Cape Malay people. Brought over as slaves, political prisoners, or exiles from the Dutch East Indians which these days are countries spread from India to East Indonesia.

Their main employment was that of cooks and house servants, therefore the foods that the Cape Malays cooked had an Indian and Asia influence with a slight twist. This has been continued as years passed by, curries, samosas, and pies all adjusted to suit the Malay palate. Fresh spices are preferred giving all the foods a full body aroma and taste.
