About Fari
These recipes belong to Fari — a mother, grandmother, and the heart of our family kitchen. Growing up in South Africa, she learned to cook from her own mother, blending Cape Malay traditions with the vibrant spices of Indian cuisine.
Every handwritten recipe card tells a story. Some are stained with turmeric, others smudged from years of use. This collection is our way of preserving her legacy — digitising these treasured recipes so they can be shared with the next generation.
