Kudu - by Amy Corbin (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

KUDU shares all the dishes that the restaurant is known and loved for, showcasing Executive Chef Patrick's South African-inspired food. The book reveals how to make the signature bread with curried butter, as well everything from grilled skewers, to crowd-pleasing sharers, with braai-style barbecue at its heart. Live-fire recipes such as sirloin on the bone, grilled peri peri king prawns, or crisp confit trout feature alongside beef-fat potatoes, charred vegetables and more, followed by the likes of Durban spiced pineapple or rich chocolate mousse.

This is a celebration of South African flavours that blends tradition with modern twists to create deeply delicious dishes.

About the Author

Chef Patrick Williams is from Durban, South Africa, where he grew up on chicken curries, oxtail potjies, and anything cooked over the braai. He has extensive experience, having worked at several fine dining establishments, including The Dairy and The Manor in London, as well as Cape Town's La Colombe and Camphors, on the Vergelegen wine estate.

Amy Corbin grew up in Clapham, London, and always dreamed of owning her own restaurant - following in the footsteps of her father Chris Corbin, one half of the renowned British restauranteurs Corbin & King. After years working in the design industry in London and New York, she and Patrick took the plunge in 2017 and opened Kudu.

Amy and Patrick live in Nunhead with their three children and their dog, Isla the Bear.
