I totally love the cook book. It has beautiful, tasty and easy to follow recipes. The pictures that she added tell a beautiful story and are the cherry 🍒 on top for me. It is a beautiful and colourful book just like Chef Nti. It is totally worth buying
The book was well written and gave me an insight of who God is and what God can do through the narrated life story of Rorisang. It was a beautiful read.
