theyre are a couple of ways to do it.
1st way: get 5 mirrors. (bottom, side, side, side) make them into a topless box. put a hotdog on a stick and put the stick diagonally in the box so its "jammed" into the corner so that it stays. put clear plastic wrap on the top to avoid buggy food and stick outside on a sunny day. check it every so often
2nd way: almost the same as the 1st way except it works if you dont have 5 mirrors handy. for this one you use cardboard and foil to make a mirror like thingy. but for this one you cant stick the stick into the sides of the box if you want. follow procedures for 1st way.

South Africa is a relatively large country with a substantial rural population, so the potential for relatively simple and inexpensive solar cookers is high, but be warned you will need a method to market and distribute the solar cookers to the rural areas.
There are a number of retailers which offer solar cookers. You can try visiting websites such as India Mart and Sun Oven to see some examples of what is on offer.
