The talented J’Something is not only a judge on My Kitchen Rules but is also Mi Casa’s lead singer and is an aspiring chef and restaurateur. He has reinvented the popular South African recipe sishebo, which can be anything from a tomato and onion mix to a stew or a potjie.
‘My secret ingredient is Castle Milk Stout, which complements the richness of the red meat,’ says J’Something.
‘Sishebo is not sishebo without a dunking component and a hands-on experience, so my recipe includes pap.
