Currently making a programme about school meals & the effect of free primary school meals in london & Scotland. In Finland meals are free from kindergarten to 18–they see it as an investment in the country’s future. Well nourished children contributing to their society & economy

That’s it. I’m done. My niece did a few scribbles, a few licks of paint and drew out some circles. Lol.

Who decided to give primary school children a million craft projects for homework?? Had to help my niece make Big Ben - let’s just say I had to do most of the work. 3 hours and I’m still here! 😰😰😰

Had a tough day yesterday so popped round to our neighbour’s house (who is also a very good friend) and she just kept bringing out the food. And of course that cheered me up. Complete sweetheart. ♥️

Interesting thread... there is an awful lot of money to be made in education, but it looks like, in this case, that money is not going towards improving schools.

Bangladesh friends, I’m trying to get my book stocked in Bangladesh & wondered if you could let me know your favourites for books/cookbooks! I only have Bookworm Dhaka on my list! #dhaka bookshop #bangladeshbookshop #dhaka

Anyone book a multi city flight via Skyscanner?

Happy Bangladeshi New Year! #shubonoboborsho

Cha nasta at my cousin’s! #EidAlFitr2024

Individually fried about 100 of these handesh/teler Pitha - rice flour & molasses cakes for Eid! Recipe linked here. Also in my new book! #EidAlFitr2024 greatbritishchefs.com/recipes/handes…

I cannot believe I’m part of the spring campaign for a major fitness brand (Sweaty Betty) - it still feels like a dream come true. Given that South Asian women are still the least physically active demographic in the UK the importance of this representation is never lost on me ❤️

Eid is almost upon us! So here’s a peek into my cookbook, for gifting inspiration. Perfect for a foodie and those interested in Bangladeshi culture. Linked below! #madeinbangladesh #bangladeshifood #Eid2024 #eidgift geni.us/madeinbanglade…

I was moved to tears eating the food of my childhood at Korai Kitchen The folks there are angels who also happen to have excellent taste in books
