As from tomorrow, a new Gibraltarian recipes cookbook will be on sale both locally and online. Justin Bautista, creator of Gibraltar’s recipe website, mamalotties.com, has published a Gibraltarian-inspired cookbook with selected recipes. The book includes local dishes as well as some exclusive family recipes not found on the website. The cookbook will be available at local bookshops such as Gibraltar Bookshop and WH Smith and can also be purchased online at Amazon.co.uk.

The 160-page cookbook shares local recipes with a brief introduction to some of the commonly known dishes.

Justin said: “Being such a small place, Gibraltar’s food culture is under-appreciated so I wanted to have something that could be shared with any generation. Recipes are ever changing and Gibraltar’s recipes are no exception, the food is very similar to that of Italian, Spanish and Maltese cuisine but I wanted to have something that was OURS and something that showed the world, ‘this is Gibraltarian cuisine, come and try it!’ Who knows, there could soon be a Gibraltarian food revolution on the way.”

The book will have recipes such as Rolitos, Menestra, Torta de Acelga, Pollo al Ajillo and, of course, Gibraltar’s famous Calentita.
