Methoa Zitha's Lamb Potjie

Methoa Zitha may not be a qualified chef yet, but he is already rubbing shoulders with one of Mzansi’s award-winning culinarians, David Higgs. His love for cooking started when he was only 13 years old. He remembers spending hours in the kitchen cooking with his mother, Beauty Mabasa.

This young foodie is also an avid cyclist who’s completed the Absa Cape Epic and the Imana Wild Ride. Zitha will be bagging a culinary qualification in the near future and he plans on opening his own Italian restaurant one day. Showing off his kitchen skills, Zitha’s prepared a delicious lamb potjie recipe.

THE NEW FACE OF SOUTH AFRICAN AGRICULTURE

With 11 global awards in the first three years of its existence, Food For Mzansi is much more than an agriculture publication. It is a movement, unashamedly saluting the unsung heroes of South African agriculture. We believe in the power of agriculture to promote nation building and social cohesion by telling stories that are often overlooked by broader society.
