Celebrity chef Lorna Maseko is set to light up kitchens across the country with the launch of her brand-new cooking show, “Lorna’s Pantry”.
The 10-part series will showcase Maseko transforming ordinary pantry staples into extraordinary meals for the whole family to enjoy.
As food prices in South Africa sky-rocket, Maseko's show comes at a vital time. The show will offer inspiration and practical cooking solutions to viewers.
Each episode of “Lorna’s Pantry” promises to tantalise the taste buds and enlighten audiences about budget-friendly cooking techniques.
By inviting viewers into her kitchen, Maseko will make sure that each recipe feels personal and achievable.
Maseko said: “I am super excited to executive produce my first production, ‘Lorna’s Pantry’. It is very different from anything I have done before and I could not be more thrilled to share it with you.
“This show is about the basics, saving money, which I know is important for many of us. We will explore everything from starting your vegetable garden - growing your favourite herbs, veggies and fruits, which can save a lot of money and to creating amazing dishes from scratch using simple, budget-friendly ingredients.”
Each episode will delve into various themes, such as creating quick meals without compromising on taste, utilising chicken in versatile ways, embracing the joy of homemade cooking and exploring meal prep techniques that fit any lifestyle.
“Meal prep does not have to be boring or overwhelming. It is about finding what works for you and turning it into a habit that fuels your goals. With a little creativity and planning, you can set yourself up for success — and delicious meals — every day.”
Through her approachable style and innovative ideas, Maseko encourages everyone to maximise on using the ingredients their pantry while keeping costs down.
“We all know how financially challenging the start of the year can be, but that does not mean we must compromise on feeding our families delicious, wholesome meals.
“‘Lorna’s Pantry’ is here to inspire and guide you through that journey. I cannot wait to share these recipes and tips with you as we create affordable, comforting food together,” said the international culinary princess.
∎ “Lorna’s Pantry” will air on S3 from Wednesday, January 15, at 6pm.
