What to do
If you're interested, just reply to this (click on 'post reply') and say:

"Obrigado"

To do this you need to join the Forum (if you haven't already, when you click reply you'll be taken through the process. It's free, of course).

APPEAL: Please ONLY reply to this thread if you will check your private messages NEXT week (Fri 9 May).

Bear in mind 75 names are being picked and there are only 25 books (because sadly not everyone gets in touch, so doing it this way helps to speed up the administration process), so you'll have to get in quick.

Also, please DON'T email in, as your name won't be counted. Nor include your contact details in this thread as, for your own safety, we don't allow personal details on the public forum so your post may be deleted.

This giveaway appears in the weekly email (if you don't already get the email go to www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips) and will close at 10am on Wed 7 May, so please get your posts in before then.

The giveaway has a strict one entry per household policy and entries can be deemed ineligible without any explanation or notification.

The book's blurb:

"Cabana: The Cookbook includes at its heart recipes for vibrant, zingy, spicy barbecue dishes which are certain to make the 2014 the summer of all things Brasilian. Whether you’ll be glued to the World Cup, or seeking refuge from the football with a cool drink in the garden, this book contains all the recipes you need for a long, hot summer of barbecue."

Spicy malagueta chicken is one of Cabana’s signature
dishes – skewers of chicken marinated in the country’s favourite malagueta chilli, garlic, lemon, paprika and oregano and glazed with mustard and honey.

Yet there’s so much more to Brasilian food than grilled meat. Delicious breakfasts include
the fruit-packed Açai Berry bowl and Corn cakes with bacon and doce de leite (milk caramel). Tasty street food will inspire with recipes for fluffy Cheese Breads (pão de queijo), spicy chicken croquettes (coxinhas) or crunchy deep fried rice balls (bolinhos).

Packed with colourful photography as well as over 80 recipes, this book offers a slice of modern Brasilian life with stories about the origins of each recipe and excursions ranging from how to dance the samba, to the story of how the Scots brought futebol to Brasil.

More about Cabana

Cabana was founded when restaurateur Jamie Barber, creator of founder of Hush and Villandry, contacted his old friend, restaurateur David Pont!, founder of Momo, who was born in Rio. Their shared passion for Brasilian food and informal eating led them to open five branches of Cabana in London, with more in the pipeline. Jamie’s sister Lizzy Barber came on board to take care of the words and whip them into shape.

How will the people be chosen?

25 people will be picked at random (we've a special little computer programme to do it) and a private message will be sent to each of their winning usernames requesting their USERNAME, FULL NAME and ADDRESS details (there'll be an email address to send this information to, we don't want it done via private messages).

The FIRST 25 people to get back to me will win a copy of the book.

When will I get the book?

The publisher providing these books will send them out directly though, to aid administration, this won't happen until all 25 winners have provided their name and address. So it may take several weeks between the giveaway's end and actual receipt. This thread will be updated to let winners know when they have been sent out.
