Cooking with Georges in Cape Town

Aired June 3, 2010

Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities on earth. At the southern most tip of the continent, South Africa is a vast melting pot of peoples and cultures including Bantus, San, Indonesians, Indians, Dutch and English. And the cuisine reflects that. Georges Collinet goes to the home of Faldela Williams who invites us into her kitchen as she cooks sugar bean curry and roti. Faldela warns that you can't cook curry too quickly. It needs time to sweat and blend so we have plenty of time to hang out and listen to great music by Cape Town's favorite son, Abdullah Ibrahim, Outernational Meltdown, and others. Also featured are side trips to nearby Madagascar and Mozambique.
