It was back to da Mudda City on Come Dine with Me South Africa this week, with Champagne Charlie, family man Justin, outdoor junkie Lyndsie and entrepeneur Sam.

The moral of the episode: always turn to Peppermint Crisp when the pressure is on. It's bizarre how many contestants make a Peppermint Crisp desert on this show - two this week.

But not by winner Lyndsie who made a chocolate bomb instead, preceded by a warthog *shudder*.

This is their cookbook:
