Synopsis

In each recipe, Levi spices up a family favourite - so pork chops are transformed into Pork Chops Calypso, a traditional winter casserole becomes Beef in Stout with Sweet Potato Dumplings, a simple fish meal emerges as Smoked Fish Choka, a classic dessert is remodeled into Mango, Banana and Passion Fruit Trifle, a fruit loaf is spiced up with rum and a milkshake becomes a Tropical Fruit Shake-it. With his inimitable style, Levi dubs it up to create a selection of simple dishes that taste, in his words, 'fabulocious'! From lip-smacking barbecue recipes and dishes for family celebrations to flavoursome fruit puddings for summer picnics and delicious dinners, Levi brings the laid-back spirit of his home islands to every meal you make, using easily accessible ingredients.

Levi's first cookbook, the Reggae Reggae Cookbook, published by Collins, was a great success.

Levi creates delicious West Indian recipes in the kitchen of his new South London restaurant, Papine Jerk Centre. As a successful reggae musician, he has performed with James Brown,was close friends with Bob Marley, has sung to Nelson Mandela, and was nominated for a MOBO award in 1998.
