Siba's Table

Siba's musician friends are in town, so she's jazzing up lunch with a farmers' market feast featuring Chicken Salad with Bacon Wrapped Greens, Herbed Mushroom Tin Loaves with Onion Chive Cream Cheese, and Coconut Macaroons.

Romance is in the air at Siba and Brian's 12th "first date anniversary" dinner. They traditionally eat braai, but this year they're giving it an American spin, grilling towering Cobb salad burgers and strawberries on sticks.

Siba and her family head out to enjoy picnic time in Cape Town. She's making Crumbed Chicken Strips, Perfect Picnic Pasta Salad, Mediterranean-style salads in jars and chocolate Cheat Truffles.

Siba's packing up fabulous local dishes with a twist to take to a South African-themed potluck. She brings sirloin Sosaties, savory Pap Cakes with a Sweet and Sour Relish and Beautiful Beet Salad with goat cheese balls.

Siba challenges herself by turning everyday cheese into simple and dazzling salads, then tackles a culinary duel to make lunch with mystery ingredients and finally raises the stakes with a incredible Fried Ice Cream.

It's all about making things modern and Siba gives Seared Tuna and Crushed Wheat Salad a fresh spin, then whips up incredible Sweet Sticky Ribs and Gazpacho with Chorizo.

Siba's throwing a super-fast Sunday lunch with an Asian vibe for friends. She creates a Surf and Turf with beef filet and fried calamari, a quick Asian Ribbon Salad, Sushi Rice and a Sunday Sunshine Virgin Cocktail.

It's a Cape Town celebration when Siba's in-laws visit to meet baby Lina. She serves Stuffed Roast Pork with Apple Gravy, Sauteed Greens with Rocket and Feta and a Caramel Popcorn Ice Cream Cake for dessert.

Siba shares secrets and favorite recipes for summer cooking, including great ideas for grilling, delicious dressings, a dip for easy entertaining, fabulous fruity drinks and a dazzling dessert that's speedy and stunning.

Siba shares some of her favorite feel-good foods, like Pesto Chicken Penne, Stuffed Baked Salmon and her mother's Potjiekos. On the sweet side are a Banana Split Sandwich, Crunchy Fried Bananas and a no-cook Ice Cream Cake.
