Atmosfire is an all-encompassing guide to everything Jan Braai currently knows about braaing. It is a celebration of this wonderful South African tradition; in which 15–20 million South Africans participate each year on 24 September on National Braai Day. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of this cultural event; Jan Braai has put together more than 200 recipes that can be cooked over and enjoyed alongside a wood fire.

Divided into 20 chapters; the book includes recipes for traditional favourites such as classic potjies; steaks; burgers and ribs; to less conventional dishes prepared on the braai; including pasta; pizza; salads and desserts.

Every dish is delectable and the accompanying photography will have your mouth watering; and your family and friends clamouring for a get-together around the braai fire while you put your braai skills to the test. Jan Braai’s clear instructions and no-nonsense attitude to the art of braai will ensure that even newbie braaiers will easily pull off these recipes.

There is something for everyone in this book. Readily available ingredients mean it’s a breeze to put the meals together; as most items are probably on hand already; or can be sourced with minimal effort or a quick trip to the supermarket.
