In a related article, Briefly News published that former finance minister Tito Mboweni has once again attempted a dish that had many confused.

Mboweni started with poached lamb cutlets - yes you read that right, in his attempt to revolutionise a lamb stew.

Taking to Twitter to showcase his progress, Mboweni pulled no punches in his battle against the lamb stew. From green peppers to Robertson's spice, hell or high water, Mboweni made sure his stew had ALL the flavour.

South Africans took to 'Chef Mboweni's' replies section to make light of his meal with many calling him out for the way it looks. As unbothered as ever, Mboweni ignored the haters and continued with his cooking escapades.
