I’ve followed Sabrina Ghayour’s career for a while now, and so it was a huge pleasure to finally have her on the podcast.
She’s just launched her new cookbook, Persiana Everyday, which was a tough process to write as she wrote it through lockdown, whilst dealing with all the things complexities that have come with the last 2 years. It was also challenging to actually write down the recipes she was creating from her head, and working out measurements but she focuses on simple and delicious recipes that are quick in this book and I can tell you it’s a must buy!
She’s not the biggest fan of podcasts so it’s a real honour for her to entrust me with her words and time! She opened up about her childhood and coming to the UK at a young age during the Iranian Revolution and explains that she actually comes from a family of women who did not cook!
We dissectPersian food and it’s fundamental flavours and dishes. The influences of the cuisine come from all over to make a unique, delicious and aromatic taste. We talk about the political topic of Tahdig – the crispy rice created in a Persian rice cooker. It can get very tense at the dinner table; people fight over it!
I absolutely loved having Sabrina on and it’s been so great watching her success over the years.

I am beyond excited to announce that I have partnered up with Magimix for this season of Crazy Sexy Food!
As the inventor of the food processor, Magimix is a family owned business that has an amazing reputation as makers of quality kitchen appliances and are cherished and adored all around the world by both chefs and home cooks alike.
I remember growing up and always seeing my mum's beloved Magimix on her counter top, and the utter ease of how she used it. Fast forward to today and my beautiful Magimix Cook Expert is literally the most used appliance in my kitchen! This latest innovation is both a food processer and multi-cooker in one machine – it's a game changer for me and such a dream to use.
I think of it as my "personal sous-chef" – I give it all the hard work to get on with so I can focus on more interesting jobs like tasting, flavouring and serving up delicious meals.
And don't even get me started on their ice cream machine, the Gelato Expert – it makes ice cream to rival even the best Italian delicacies! Oh – and if that isn't enough – come September they’re launching a new range of Blenders.
