My love for cooking started when I was 10 years old. I was watching a movie on television and after that Jamie Oliver’s show. As it started I was thinking ‘Who is he? He’s not so good.’ But I haven’t stopped watching him. And that turned into hours and hours of watching his shows. Now I know every single one of them and I’ve absorbed all his love and passion and movements and all. I adore him. His love and joy when he’s cooking is something beautiful.
Cooking for me is magic. It’s interesting that when you cook all seems under control and then in just one minute everything can be ruined. For example, when you are cooking and you’re angry, your food will be awful. When I’m upset or nervous, things that make me feel better are cooking and my knife..haha. I’m crazy about knives but don’t get me wrong I use them for cooking only.
When I was just getting started I was so frightened about everything. I was wondering ‘How will I know what spice to use or how to toss…?’ My dream, besides having my own restaurant, is cooking with Jamie. I can’t wait to move to London and start doing something about it.
I think you have to believe in yourself and then everything can happen. Look at me haha a few months ago no one knew about me and my passion, now things are starting to change.
