Mezze to Milk Tart

From the Middle East to Africa in My Vegetarian Kitchen.

Cecile Yazbek's culinary journey began in the 'old' South Africa, where feasts and large gatherings were a common feature of life for the Lebanese community.

Her first taste of sour and salty mfinu, pressed into her mouth by the loving fingers of her Xhosa nursemaid Rosie, inspired a lifetime of creative exploration in the kitchen.
