This is more than just cooking
Kitchen Tricks & Tips was born from Chef Nthabeleng’s passion for wholesome living and her deep love for South African food culture. Growing up surrounded by the scents of simmering stews, open-fire braais, and the joyful chatter of family meals, she learned that food is a language of care.
Today, we blend those time-honoured traditions with fresh, health-focused approaches to eating. Our work celebrates the beauty of local produce — from sun-ripened tomatoes in Limpopo to fragrant herbs grown in backyard gardens. We want to help you discover the healing power of food, while keeping your plate colourful, exciting, and deeply connected to your roots.
This is more than just cooking — it’s a lifestyle that honours who we are, where we come from, and how we want to live.

Our KTT™ Shopper's Guide
Kitchenie stars
At Kitchen Tricks & Tips, we believe healthy habits start young. Kitchenie Stars is our fun and interactive shopper’s guide designed especially for kids — helping them explore the colourful world of fresh, local food while learning how to make smart, healthy choices.
Through games, easy recipes, and guided shopping adventures, we teach children where their food comes from, how to spot nutritious options, and why every ingredient matters. From the sweetness of sun-ripened mangoes to the crunch of fresh mielies, we bring South Africa’s rich food heritage to life in a way that’s exciting and easy to understand.
Because when kids learn to love good food, they grow into healthy, happy adults who carry those values for life.
