More about the book!

The festive season is almost upon us, so in this week’s episode of Pagecast, The Lazy Makoti takes us through how to host the holidays!

The Lazy Makoti is in conversation with publicist and book lover Thembela Mbatha-Mputamputa.

Mogau Seshoene, aka The Lazy Makoti, says:

‘I am back with a brand-new collection of over 100 delicious, easy-to-follow recipes! In my highly anticipated new cookbook, Hosting with the Lazy Makoti, I will show you how to host any occasion with stylish and tasty food, from soul-warming one-pot dinners, irresistible easy bakes, and hearty plant-based dishes to Mzansi favourites, flavourful seven-colour meals, decadent desserts, vibrant African cuisine, and much more.’

Seshoene is a trained chef and award-winning cookbook author. Her previous book, The Lazy Makoti’s Guide to the Kitchen, became an instant bestseller.

Seshoene has received a Gourmand World Cookbook Award and a USIBA Creative and Cultural Industries Award, and was named the 2021 Luxe Restaurant Awards Culinary Media Personality of the Year. She’s featured on the Forbes Africa ‘30 under 30’ list and the Mail and Guardian Top 200 Young South Africans list.
