About Dinka’s Cookbook

Dinka's Cookbook is a collection of recipes that have been tried and tested over many years and that have stood the test of time. Because Dinka ran her own catering business for many years, some of these recipes have really been tested, in the most difficult circumstances, by the most discerning customers.

Dinka's Cookbook has been made available on the internet because it is the simplest method of sharing the recipes with all those people who have tasted the food and asked how it was made.
