Here are some of my most favourite Mother’s Day Recipes. There’s no better way to celebrate Mother’s Day than gathering together. We’re bringing colour to the table with a South African inspired table-scape. On the food side, there’s Paloma Mimosa cocktails, savoury nibbles, meaty roasts and a butternut Bobotie that’ll have vegetarians and meat-eaters licking their lips.

That Apple Cake!!!
Wow they all look wonderful. Definitely need to try these. Looking forward to trying your bobotie.
I love that a vegetarian bobotie can taste as good as the meat version. It’s especially good with a homemade mango chutney. Enjoy!
Fruit and cake is hands down the best partners. Plus cognac, of course.
I’m going to work my way through each and every one of the above dishes. Your site is amazing- thanks for the inspiration!
So glad to hear, Corne. Let us know how the cooking is coming along. Hope some will become new favourites at your dinner table.
