Publishers Text
In Mabu Mabu, charismatic First Nations chef Nornie Bero champions the tastes of native flavors in everyday cooking by unlocking the secrets of Australian herbs, spices, vegetables and fruits.Nornie grew up on the island of Mer in the Torres Strait and while her wanderlust would take her to Italian and Japanese kitchens in Melbourne and London via Townsville, her home now is Mabu Mabu, a restaurant renowned in Melbourne and beyond for its innovative and delicious Australian Indigenous food.
This book, also called Mabu Mabu – which means help yourself – reflects Nornie's approach to cooking: simple, accessible, delicious, and colorful! Her native pantry (explored in a comprehensive glossary of native ingredients) includes seeds, succulents, nuts, plants and herbs, and her recipes range from Pumpkin and Wattleseed dampers (for which she is known) to Kangaroo Tail Bourguignon to Saltbush Butter, Quandong Relish, Pickled Karkalla and Pulled Wild Boar.
Nornie also shares her knowledge of foraging, sourcing and substitutions, as well as the story of her formative years foraging, fishing and cooking alongside her beloved father on Mer.
