Simply Zola
Author: Zola Nene
Format: Paperback
Yes, she’s back, and better than ever! Zola Nene has become quite a force on the South African culinary scene, yet her personal quest to show people that cooking great food needn’t be pretentious or difficult, continues in Simply Zola. Zola doesn’t do bland or shy, so prepare to be swept away.
For those of you always complaining that it’s impossible to cook properly for one, there’s a chapter devoted just to that, while the lazy among you will be cheered by a chapter of one-pot dishes. There’s even a chapter for those who want taste without the gluten. Zola’s first book, Simply Delicious, was a triumph, and Simply Zola is sure to be the same.
