CAN-DO ATTITUDE

The trusty cans of pulses, veggies, fruit, fish and tomatoes in her pantry cupboard inspired former Jamie Oliver intern Lola Milne to create a collection of new and exciting recipes with these reliable, affordable ingredients. Her first cookbook shows that hearty stews, flavourful pastas and dips, family-favourite pies and desserts are all within easy reach – even if you’ve forgotten to restock your veggie drawer and fruit bowl.

Take One Tin (published by Octopus and distributed in SA by Jonathan Ball Publishers) is available at good book stores and online for R340.
