Eat like Morgan Freeman
Did you know that Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman, when he's not playing God or a boxing trainer in the movies, enjoys sailing, flying his own airplane ... and running restaurants and eating. Well, he does, as Natalie Haughton writes in her feature on the Caribbean-food-loving thespian. And he's got a new cookbook, even though he's not an expert chef himself, called "Morgan Freeman & Friends: Caribbean Cooking for a Cause," by Wendy Wilkinson and Donna Lee (Rodale; $35). And he's on a mission:
Prompted by a phone call for help from his Grenadian friend, Champie Evans, the inspiration for the book grew out of Freeman's desire to raise funds to help rebuild Grenada, ravaged by Hurricane Ivan in 2004. Freeman jumped in and established the Grenada Relief Fund more than a year ago. Freeman will donate his portion of the proceeds from the book's sales to the fund, which will help rebuild houses, schools and churches.
To go along with the story, Natalie did a "spotlight" sidebar in which Freeman reveals his more personal side.
And if you want to cook something Caribbean:
Jerk Lamb Chops With Two Kinds Of Plantain, Red Beans And Coconut Rice, With Tamarind Glaze
Chocolate Hazelnut Cake
Rose's Cappuccino Cheesecake
Banana Beignets With Pineapple Carpaccio And Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Shrimp And Raw Green Mango Salad
Sunburst Mahi Mahi
