Pensioner Eddie says he can make a great curry from scratch and loves the bigger cuts of meat, like leg of lamb, pork belly or shoulder, with food one of his greatest passions. His cooking style is a fusion of the Afrikaner family meals he grew up eating with Indian influences from growing up in KZN. Given the chance, he’d gladly tuck into a meal of boerewors and pap with shesheba.
Partnering with Eddie is his son-in-law Martin, who shamelessly says he entered MKRSA to try to win the R1 million prize! A winemaker by trade, he says that no great story ever started with "I had a salad" and enjoys boerewors rolls and pannekoek. His signature dishes are roasted leg of lamb, steak and chips, offal, and chops on the braai.
