Island Recipes by Grandmothers

Ebook

On a sun-drenched island where the sea kisses sugarcane fields and spice fills the morning air, grandmothers still cook with memory instead of measures. Island Recipes by Grandmothers is a tender, aromatic tribute to the women who shaped Mauritian kitchens — with their hands, stories, and love.

In this vibrant cultural cookbook, Brinda Phokeerdass captures the wisdom and warmth of grandmothers from every corner of Mauritius. Each recipe is paired with an evocative narrative — from healing ginger tea in the misty hills of Curepipe to cardamom-scented tea breads baked on Eid mornings. This is more than a culinary guide; it's a preservation of identity, rhythm, and soul. With tips whispered over generations, stories cooked into every curry, and food that comforts across lifetimes, this book will stir your heart as much as your appetite.
