Congratulations!

Chef Pete, I have been a fan since the first Masterchef SA and your admonishment of everyone (except Deena) who stuffed up curries inspired me to take cooking seriously. It has become a very satisfying hobby and your Food on Fire cookbook has been a staple in our households. My kids and even extended family are regularly commenting on the great taste of your recipes in that book. May the next 60 years have as big an impact as the first 60 years!

Happy happy birthday dear Chef Pete! I pray that you have a wonderful day and that you continue doing what you are doing in health and strength.
Please know that you have literally transformed my ‘kitchen life’ making being part of the FIRE programme so much easier. I literally now love cooking and cooking right and love eating what is good to eat. Cooking for people has become my “love language” !

Happy Birthday Chef Pete! May there be many blessings in the coming year. I learnt so much from you in the Cook-Alongs and through the FIRE Recipes. I never knew what I should do with a leek and now it is a regular on my shopping list. My family never ate red or yellow peppers, and now enjoy having them in you Bobotie and Goulash recipes. There are a few more herbs and spices in my pantry these days and my family enjoys more flavourful and healthy food because of your recipes. Thank you!

For your birthday here is a recipe we love which you may not have come across. Of course, we used to use tangy C&B mayo, but it is still very nice with home made mayo made with more vinegar and less lemon juice 🙂

You are brilliant!! The ease you show in the kitchen, the way you mix and add the flavours. The recipes are so easy to follow, yet each one is a masterpiece even though I made them in my kitchen. You gave us so many tips as well as bravado to just go in and cook up a storm. Thankyou and many many blessings for the years to come!
