Origins
As mentioned in my small introduction, I have a multicultural background, and growing up, I’ve realised its importance. I hold my culture very close to my heart; not many people like me get the opportunity to make as far as I have and to be as fortunate. I need to share my culture with others so that they understand that we are not a monolith.
Food
I’ve been passionate about food for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories I have dates back to me poking my head inside the kitchen trying to catch a whiff of what was being cooked. I remember smelling the fragrant caramelised onion and garlic; it brought such a smile on my face and sated what hunger I had in that instant. I’ve been cooking food in the kitchen for the past decade. My first steps in the kitchen involved helping my mom with slowly cutting vegetables, seasoning meals and stirring pots with her by my side.
