do it differently
e’ve thought out of the box and
the glass in this issue… the pizza
box and Champagne glass, that is
– our intriguing selection of dishes
made with Méthode Cap Classique
(MCC), SA’s version of Champagne,
produced in the same style as the
original French bubbly (page 38);
and our five recipes for making non-
traditional pizza bases with a range
of nutritious ingredients (page 90)
– plus toppings with a difference –
are good reason to enjoy two of SA’s
favourite treats in a whole new way.
The fresh inspiration doesn’t end
there! In the spirit of embracing all
tastes and preferences at your New
Year’s Eve soirée, make sure you
have platters of our oh-so delicious
vegan canapés (no, that’s not an
oxymoron) to hand round – trust
me when I say everyone will be tempted by these plant-based beauties (page 74).
What’s more, if you really feel like hosting an event with a difference this holiday
season, take a look at our gourmet garden picnic, where delights like salmon tacos
and old-school Cuban cocktails are served up on a low dining table (created from
two crates and an old wooden door) with comfy cushions for seating, Japanese
chabudai style (page 60). Speaking of Japan, allow me to introduce you to my latest
obsession: Japanese pancakes (page 28). Soufflé meets mini cake, these moreish
little wonders are sure to be a hit at your next afternoon – or even brunch – gathering.
All new beginnings come with anticipation and expectation, and we’ve got this
covered on the foodie front! Do check in at our food trends forecast for 2020… with
a nod to everything from regenerative agriculture to desseralité, this hot list (page 4)
has a topic of interest and talking point for everyone around the table this year.

cover FROZEN TIRAMISÙ LOAF
recipe We used a large, loaf-shaped
plastic container, but you could
use 2 smaller loaf tins or any large
freezerproof container you like.
Make up to 10 days ahead and
store, sealed, in the freezer
Serves 8 – 10 A LITTLE EFFORT
RECIPE AND STYLING BY CLAIRE FERRANDI PHOTOGRAPH BY DYLAN SWART
1 hr + overnight, to freeze
WHAT YOU NEED
CAKE
1 x 260g store-bought marbled
teacake, sliced (we used one from
Woolworths, but any chocolate/
vanilla loaf cake will work)
MASCARPONE
1 x 250g tub mascarpone,
at room temperature
2 large pieces preserved ginger in
syrup, finely chopped (find at
select supermarkets, delis and
cheese shops)
1 tbsp preserved ginger syrup
FINGER BISCUITS
8 tsp instant coffee granules
500ml (2 cups) boiling water
2 tsp vanilla extract
120ml Sherry
300g finger biscuits
cocoa powder, to dust
ICE CREAM
1 x 385g tin condensed milk,
chilled in the fridge overnight/
in the freezer for 30 minutes
pinch salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
500ml (2 cups) fresh cream
edible gold dust, to decorate
(optional)
HOW TO DO IT
1 Line the base and sides of a large
loaf tin/freezerproof container with
cling film, leaving an overhang (wipe
the tin with a clean, damp cloth before
lining to make the cling film stick).
2 Place the cake slices on the base of
the tin in an even layer.
COVER RECIPE
3 For the mascarpone, gently fold
together the mascarpone, ginger pieces
and ginger syrup in a bowl. Don’t
overmix as the mascarpone can easily
split. Spread the mascarpone layer
evenly over the cake layer.
4 For the finger biscuits, place the
coffee granules, water and vanilla in a
flat dish (this makes soaking the biscuits
easier) and whisk together. Add the
Sherry and whisk to combine. Briefly
dip the finger biscuits into the mixture,
1 at a time (about 5 seconds on each
side, otherwise the biscuits will become
too soggy to handle). Place the soaked
biscuits lengthways on the mascarpone
layer in an even layer. This should take ⅓
of the biscuits. Generously sift a layer of
cocoa powder on top.
5 For the ice cream, in a stand mixer
with the whisk attachment, beat the
chilled condensed milk until thick,
about 5 minutes. Mix in the salt and
vanilla extract.
6 In a separate, clean bowl of the stand
mixer, using a clean whisk, whip the
cream until stiff peaks form. Fold gently
into the condensed milk mixture until
just combined.
7 Add ½ the ice cream mixture in a layer
over the soaked biscuits.
8 In the same way as the last soaked
biscuit layer, use a second ⅓ of the
biscuits to add another layer over the
ice cream. Again, dust generously with
sifted cocoa powder.
9 Add the remaining ice cream as a layer
and smooth the top before adding the
final layer of soaked biscuits (this time
the biscuits should run in the direction
you will slice the loaf).
10 Cover with the overhanging cling
film and seal tightly with another layer of
cling film. Place in the freezer overnight,
or for up to 10 days.
11 To serve, remove from the container
using the overhanging cling film to help
you. Peel off the cling film and discard.
Transfer the loaf to a board or platter,
dust the top generously with sifted FROZEN TIRAMISÙ LOAF
cocoa powder and a sprinkling of edible
gold dust, if desired. Allow to stand for
5 minutes before slicing.
