To anyone who has not tried tilapia, ask any aficionado and they will quote crumbed tilapia biting, or tilapia fillet pan fried in butter with a squeeze of lemon and sprinkle of pepper to bring out its exquisite taste.

Throughout the region, the preference is for char-grilled or deep fried whole gutted tilapia stuffed with tomato and onion – none of these three preferred methods of cooking and presenting tilapia are offered in this volume.

This recipe book is aimed at demonstrating the breadth and depth of what can be done with this healthy and versatile fish, indigenous to Africa. I am delighted to offer you 30 recipes of how to further enjoy tilapia, laid out in the traditional order of starters and snacks, salads, soups and main courses.

Lake Harvest has fish farms in three countries (Zimbabwe, Zambia and Uganda) and sells its products throughout East and Southern Africa – as such, we have added a section on regional tilapia dishes.

Lake Harvest is the largest integrated tilapia operation in Africa and we are celebrating our 20th Anniversary in 2018 – we love our Kariba bream, we are proud of our Lake Harvest brand and we delight in promoting the healthy life style that goes with this nutritional food with its clean and delicate taste.

Our Recipe Book will be retailing in stores in September 2018, so grab yourself a copy, eat healthy and enjoy the selection of recipes we have put together for you.
