Food has always been a passion. MasterChef Australia in 2013 though helped me start a new chapter in my life, a fabulous one of course! Andrew Prior since 2016 has been living, travelling, breathing, cooking and eating all things French in France of course. After the experience of MasterChef he realised that his passion was food and travel. So he started a successful walking food tours business in Melbourne called Queenie's Food Tours. But France was always calling. So with his partner and two golden retrievers we took the bold step of moving permanently. Since moving to France he's followed his food dream and hero's Julia Childs and Rachel Khoo and completed a Le Cordon Bleu Patisserie course, had successful food tours of regional France and the Cote D'Azur and set up a YouTube channel devoted to Paris, France and other European cities called Travelling Fabulously. Now Andrew's moved to the wonderful town of Montmorillon in the Nouvelle-Acquaitaine region of France. And is devoting more time to French food. This means for you food lovers more fabulous recipes on YouTube and fabulous cooking experiences in Montmorillon.But his newest passion is the podcast Fabulously Delicious The French Food Podcast which is all about French food and the people make it, cook it, write and photograph it but above all love it.

His work with Jamie alone has resulted in international book sales in excess of 30 million copies, and not only has he now photographed over 100 books, David is also a published author himself, with books like Around the World in 80 Dishes and more recently his memoir, Diary of a Lone Twin, an account of love and grief following the untimely death of his identical twin, something which frames a lot of our conversation today.I spoke to David in his beautiful London home last week on the hottest day of the year, in a room full of memories from his extensive travels.

Alex is with Gouri Kubair who moved from a successful corporate career to successful entrepreneur with Holylama spices. She shares her journey through life talking candidly about both the inspirational moments and the challenges along the way. As someone who has worked successfully in both the corporate and entrepreneurial space, Gouri discusses the differences and how the continual learning process has made her life richer and helped her to understand the value of mindfulness in finding the right way to move forward. KEY TAKEAWAYS The milestones we have achieved as a company have kept me going and I have learned lots along the way. When you are in business it's a continual learning process. If you are not enjoying your work then you should be aiming to make a change. You need to have people around you who are supportive when you are starting in business. Being an entrepreneur has great flexibility but it provides great financial challenges. When you start in business you are investing in yourself. You have to alter your mindset and move from risk-averse to being a risk-taker. You can use all the skills you have from the corporate world as an entrepreneur. Mindfulness can help you face your fears and move forward. Outsourcing can be an effective way to free up your time for activities that will generate new business. Everyone has to find the right way forward for them. The definition of success is different for everyone and the journey is as important as the destination. BEST MOMENTS ‘You have to visit a country to know exactly how it is, a village is not the same as a city' ‘When you are in business for yourself you get instant feedback about the effort you are making' ‘I have learnt so much and my life is so much richer' VALUABLE RESOURCES Business, Wealth and Mindset podcast series Holylama Website ABOUT THE GUEST GOURI KUBAIR Gouri Kubair is the third generation of the family that pioneered the essential oils industry in India. Her grandfather was the first person to cultivate vetivert (a long tall grass) on a commercial basis to extract the oils. From these beginnings has grown a successful family business called Holy Lama Naturals which makes a natural body care range based on the ancient principles of Ayurveda and a unique range of highly concentrated natural extracts of herbs, spices flowers and fruits used in cooking called Holy Lama Spice Drops®. Gouri (40) grew up in Kerala with her younger sister and parents who continued to develop and grow the business extending the range of essential oils they worked with and their uses. She watched as together they worked up the beauty range and began to experiment with oils for cooking. With success, more help was needed and it was Vijaya, Gouri's mother who set up the manufacturing unit as a Government-recognized women's enterprise, supporting and empowering marginalized women in the local community, something the business still proudly does today. Although naturally interested in the family firm, Gouri chose to spread her wings and trained to become a chartered accountant in India where she worked for Deloitte before moving with the company to the UK. For over a decade she worked as an auditor and during this time met her husband, Anirudha, and had her two children, Neha and Ashwin. Perhaps it was having children of her own but the lure of working for the family business became too much and in 2013 Gouri left her comfortable job with Deloitte to further her family's ethical business bringing the natural skincare range and Holy Lama Spice Drops® to the European market. During the last seven years, Gouri has worked hard to develop the reputation of the Holy Lama Naturals name. As a result, over half the 36-strong range of Spice Drops has been awarded either one or two stars at the Great Taste Awards and eminent chefs such as Nigella Lawson, Rachel Khoo, Tom Kerridge and Cyrus Todiwala have recommended using them. In 2016 Gouri gave Holy Lama Spice Drops® a whole new brand image which is both contemporary and fun while maintaining its Indian roots and the quality of the product. Holy Lama Spice Drops® have continued to grow in popularity and some varieties have even made an appearance on the Great British Bake Off. Holy Lama Spice Drops® are available online from Ocado and Amazon, as well as holylama.co.uk and in some Whole Foods Markets.

Today's guest launched an incredible culinary career from a tiny Parisian apartment.Rachel Khoo is a British cookbook author and TV chef who packed up her life in London to pursue her dream of studying pâtisserie at the world-famous Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris. In 2012, Rachel became a household name with her bestselling cookbook, The Little Paris Kitchen, but it was her hit BBC TV show that had us falling head over heels for Rachel's vintage style, Parisian lifestyle and simple French fare served with creative flair. Numerous cookbooks and television shows have since followed.In the latest chapter of her gastronomic adventures, Rachel has bid au revoir to France and traded croissants for cardamom buns as she's now settled in Stockholm. Her culinary journey takes us from the snow-capped Austrian Alps to deep within the Malaysian jungle. She also shares her fascination with Tokyo's convenience stores and her love of long summer days spent foraging for cloudberries in the Swedish forests.RACHEL KHOO'S CULTURE GUIDEAmelie by Jean-Pierre Jeunet (film)DESTINATION INSPIRATIONShakespeare and Company, ParisViennaThe Austrian AlpsMalaysiaParisLe Cordon BleuMarché d'Aligre, ParisTokyo7-Eleven, JapanStockholmLillebrors Bageri, StockholmIf you're interested in exploring whether going vegan will save the planet, you can find Rachel Khoo's new 8-part podcast series A Carnivore's Crisis available on Audible.

The food writer and chef Olivia Potts joins the Slightly Foxed editors for a literary banquet. Olivia was a barrister for five years before enrolling at Le Cordon Bleu, becoming a cookery columnist on The Spectator and writing A Half Baked Idea, a memoir with recipes. From finding consolation in cooking and precision in pâtisserie to nostalgia-soaked blancmange and family dinners in the Cazalet Chronicles, the conversation flows, welcoming Jane Grigson, Elizabeth David, Charles Dickens and the extraordinary Fanny Cradock to the table along the way. And in this month’s taste from the magazine’s archives, Rachel Khoo’s cookbook conjures up feasts in an attic in Paris. Please find links to books, articles, and further reading listed below.

Rachel reminded me of the reason why I started this podcast, which is to inspire people to look at what else is possible in their lives. Rachel worked in the banking industry for over 20 years and was very happy (and successful)... and yet she had this little voice asking herself: “Hey, are you really gonna do this for the rest of your life? Is this all there is to your career?”After attending personal development courses, she opened up her awareness and gained new perspectives in life. She then decided to leverage her experience and knowledge in finance with her skills in NLP coaching, to start her own coaching business - Expense Concierge Solution (www.expenseconciergesolution.com)Now she helps people in the area of finance and customizes each solution for her clients' needs.

Adam Rawson on how he created two new dining spots for London’s Standard hotel, plus Rachel Khoo’s culinary discoveries in Stockholm.
Rachel Khoo does so many creative endeavors: cookbooks, travel TV shows, cooking TV shows, running a lifestyle magazine...just to name a few of them. Most recently, she released her 6th cookbook -- “The Little Swedish Kitchen.”She first hit the international media scene with her BBC show The Little Paris Kitchen and cookbook of the same name, and has since then expanded her brand to include discovery and inspiration worldwide. As you’ll hear her talk about, she describes her big passion as simply: finding creative solutions for ANYTHING. We walk through the little steps of her path that have gotten her to big goals, and she also candidly talks about some of the new obstacles in her career, but the things she’s learned along the way that help her navigate the challenges of professional life.Her pursuit of creativity has gotten her far, but she’s quick to note that failures along the way are a part of the journey.I have admired Rachel’s work for many years, but as I’ve gotten to know her since moving to London (which she visits frequently although she lives in Stockholm, Sweden now), I have really come to respect her hustle.Some of my favorite Rachel quotes from this conversation:“Little steps get you to the big goal. Work your way backwards.”“Nothing comes from nothing. If you want something -- you’ve got to make it happen.”“Try to surround yourself with people who will elevate you; who will push you.”“Expect failure. Don’t feel like it’s going to stop you. Make that failure into advantage. Turns things on their head.”I chatted with Rachel at the Khoollect studio in London. I loved this conversation with her -- I hope get as much out of it as I did!Show notes:Swedish Buns & Fika, feat.

My guest today is the lovely Rachel Khoo - chef, food writer, broadcaster and founder of Khoollect which she describes as "a creative studio based in London and online community celebrating inspiration found in unlikely places".At 26, Rachel left her London job working in PR to move to Paris and learn to bake and follow her gut (and heart). According to The Times, she contacted Penguin with the idea for the Little Paris Kitchen cookbook in 2012, which has since gone on to be translated into 12 languages, which also led to a BBC Two series, pulling in almost 2million viewers. She's just released her sixth cookbook, called The Little Swedish Kitchen and Rachel is currently filming her eighth television series. She co-hosts Zumbo’s Just Desserts which aired in during summer 2016 and is now screening around the world on Netflix.In this episode we talk about her interesting career path, why she loves living in Sweden, her newest cook book The Little Swedish Kitchen and why it's OK to be proud of your work and be different.

Kingdom Parables 11am | Rachel Khoo | Sun 12th Aug 2018 by Holy Trinity Clapham
The British-Malaysian-Austrian chef Rachel Khoo came to fame in the UK through her brilliant 2012 TV series The Little Paris Kitchen, but by then she had already published two cookbooks in France, where she had been living since deciding to up sticks from London and retrain as a patisserie chef. Her sixth cookbook, The Little Swedish Kitchen, is inspired by her new home country, which she moved to in 2016 with her Swedish husband – they welcomed a son last year. Rachel joins Jo and James to talk about life in Sweden; picking up languages like most people pick up holiday photos; her IIJM-approved chocolate mousse recipe; art student haircuts, and being mistaken for Emilia Clarke in Game of Thrones. And of course, there are some vital topics to discuss: so is it just Jo who would outlaw bananas? Is it just James who gets told “You look really familiar!”? And is it just Rachel who feels as though she doesn’t have a home city? This week's episode was recorded on July 23. It was edited by Kat Brown, with music by Martin Austwick.

44. The Balance Between Making Money & Following Your Passion with Rachel Khoo by The Lifestyle Edit Podcast
This episode features cookbook author and recipe writer Martha Collison, whose career launched years ago on Great British Bake Off and who continues to be a baking rockstar. There's also a cameo by the wonderful Rachel Khoo at the top of the episode! Martha was recommended to me by one of YOU (hi!) to be a guest during my author series of interviews. Martha is awesome. At 17 years old, she was the youngest person ever to compete on the Great British Bake Off - and not only compete, but she was a finalist! (It's called the Great British Baking Show in America). Martha’s episode was 4 years ago; now she is 21 and she is a twice-published cookbook author with her 2014 cookbook "Twist: Creative Ideas to ReInvent Your Baking," and last year's: "Crave: Brilliantly Indulgent Recipes." We chat about how she gets inspiration for new recipe ideas, she reflects on her time on the Great British Bake Off, and we talk about good ol' imposter syndrome. She also talks about how she sees social media impacting her career and the value of pursuing your passions, whatever your age. --meet martha-- @marthacollison - instagram www.bakingmartha.co.uk --meet rachel-- @rachelkhooks - instagram www.rachelkhoo.com --keep it quirky-- @keepitquirkypodcast - instagram @qkatie - katie quinn on instagram & twitter www.youtube.com/TheQKatie www.facebook.com/TheQKatie See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Songs of the Summer | Rachel Khoo | Sun 13th Aug 2017 by Holy Trinity Clapham
The Simple Sophisticate - Intelligent Living Paired with Signature Style
~The Simple Sophisticate, episode #165 ~Subscribe to The Simple Sophisticate: iTunes | Stitcher | iHeartRadio "Right food, right place, right time. It is my belief . . . that this is the best recipe of all. A crab sandwich by the sea on a June afternoon; a slice of roast goose with applesauce and roast potatoes on Christmas Day; hot sausages and a chuck of roast pumpkin on a frost-sparkling night in November. These are meals who success relies not on the expertise of the cook but on the more basic premise that this is the food of the moment - something eaten at a time when it is most appropriate, when the ingredients are at their peak of perfections, when the food, the cook and the time of year are at one with each other." —Nigel Slater in The Kitchen Diaries: A Year in the Kitchen with Nigel Slater Being able to have what we want is not always a blessing. But having what we need is imperative to our well-being, and what we need is nutrient-rich food and when it tastes its most delicious, it is all the more attractive to enjoy. Supermarkets have made the food we love available for consumers year-round, but we all know a tomato in December here in the states tastes nothing like its summer counterpart. Instead pick up an apple or if you are in Hawaii or on the west coast, a rambutans (seasonally available September through March). Satisfy your sweet-tooth and eat what is readily avilable and full of flavor. I can only speak for myself, but part of the reason I fall into the habit of eating the same vegetable, fruit or meal year round as a go-to is it's easy, I think it saves me time and I don't have to think about it. And while it does ease the need to have to figure out what to eat each night or for lunch, it isn't actually the best for my health. Initially, it will take time and our full attention to learn what is in season and know what to do with it when we get it back to our kitchen, but once we gain this knowledge, it becomes a habit. In essence, we are becoming our own home chef capable of cooking anything with fresh ingredients and what is left in the refrigerator. This feat may sound impossible, and you may be someone who doesn't love to cook, but most of us eat at home a majority of the time, so it doesn't have to be a passion and you don't have to be a foodie to learn the basics of seasonal cooking. Your health, your waistline and your peace of mind will thank you. 1. Shop at small local shops, markets and specialties businesses A fish market, a cheese shop, the local bakery, the farm stand, your neighbor's petite produce stand, choosing to frequent such food options rather than the giant supermarket will make the shopping experience far more pleasurable and the food you purchase will be fresher and most likely in season. As well, you can begin to establish relationships with the experts who run each business, ask them questions and learn about what you will be eating and feeding those you love. 2. Shop once a week for stock up items in the épicerie, but day to day for fresh food "[The Kitchen Diaries] is a gentle plea to buy something, however, small, each day, to take time to shop, to treat it as a pleasure rather than a chore." —Nigel Slater The weekly capsule menu is something I believe works wonderfully for planning the meals for the week and the ingredients, which should be versatile, for each recipe item. And while I typically do a weekly shopping run to my farmers market or Trader Joe's, I do stop by the local produce stand or the bakery, etc. throughout the week to ensure I have the freshest ingredients. 3. Curate a kitchen space that works well, no fancy gadgets necessary As anyone who has traveled in Europe and England will attest, kitchens are very small even in the most grand of cities, and while many people especially in Paris and London and well, name your favorite destination, will want to dine at the many restaurants, cooking in a small kitchen is very possible. So don't let the size of your kitchen be the roadblock. I always think of Rachel Khoo in her little Paris kitchen cooking away in minimal space. Most importantly, regardless of space, make sure you have the basic tools and essentials as well as a well-stocked épicerie. See my detailed list for both here. 4. Plant a garden, no matter how much space you have. Whether you have a large plot of land or a window sill, plant what you can, what you're curious about and with each year, add something different, try something new. As well, try to plant something to be enjoyed in each season: rhubarb in the early spring, strawberries in late spring, fresh herbs all summer (sometimes year round depending upon where you keep them), squash and pumpkin in the fall, the possibilities are endless. Have fun and play in the dirt. 5. Educate yourself on seasonal offerings Whether from books, cookbooks are a delight to read, and you learn as you peruse each recipe especially if it is organized seasonally, or textbooks, food television programs or your local farmer, become curious about what is in season where you live. Choose to see it as an adventure of discovery. When I approach cooking this way, I don't kick myself if something doesn't work out, I celebrate the opportunity to try and regardless the food (because it's in season) is usually delicious (again, not because of my prowess, but because seasonal food is good all on its own). I found this very helpful online source for all fifty states. You simply choose your state, the season and voila! It shares not only the produce that should be available and at its freshest, but recipes as well. ~Eat the Seasons (a helpful guide for North America and United Kingdom citizens) ~Epicurious is also a worthwhile resource for recipes on seasonal food, organized by the season 6. Discover the power of food The list is long of which to read to learn about what is the best balanced diet and how and where to find the nutrients you seek, but understanding where you can find fiber (grains - the less processed the better) and understanding exactly what an avocado gifts to your body encourages you to step toward these foods with curiosity and not fear that you are going to be eating too much fat or calories. With these two items, they will satiate you long before the calorie count is anything to worry about, and fat isn't bad, remember this. "Roast rhubarb on a January morning; 'pick-your-own' strawberries in June: a piece of chicken on the grill on an August evening . . . This is more than just something to eat, it is food to be celebrated, food that is somehow in tune with the rhythm of nature. Quite simply, the right food at the right time."— Nigel Slater 7. Have a plan The primary reason I have created seasonal capsule menus is to provide a starting point or foundation for how to cook seasonally in fall and spring (summer and winter will be coming in my second book to be released in 2018!). With time and practice, you'll begin to incorporate your favorite ingredients and discover which recipes you like and even create your own. 8. Keep it simple Truly, the best meal you will make on a regular basis should be simple, because again, it is the food, the quality of food, that makes it so. For example, my go-to recipe for vegetables year round is to roast them. Name the vegetable and for the most part, I will roast it. Asparagus in the spring, add some lemon and a bay leaf; zucchini and squash in summer and fall - olive oil drizzle, salt and pepper - 400 degrees for 30 minutes; broccoli in the fall through early spring. Oh, and I just tried roasted cauliflower finished in the last two minutes with Gruyère and Parmesan - delicious! 9. Try learning and incorporating a new habit each week Perhaps one week you will learn and become confident with roasting, maybe the next week making your own herb butter, then the next a beloved go-to vinaigrette. Whenever you eat out and you taste something you love, ask the chef how they made it (or the waiter/ess to ask the chef). I recently had the most delicious huckleberry ricotta mousse, and out of curiosity (as huckleberries have a very limited season) I wanted to remember this recipe for the next year. They happily shared the ingredients, and I went online and found a ricotta mousse recipe from a trusted source and adapted it to my taste. (Check out my recipe for Homemade Ricotta Mousse with Fresh Berries here.) 10. Dine at farm to table restaurants One of the best ways to learn about seasonal food is to try it as it is prepared by well-trained chefs. More and more restaurants are following this model of seasonal recipes and in so doing are teaching and informing their patrons how to cook delicious food at home. Learning how to feed our bodies well takes time, but hopefully with these tips, the journey through the seasons will be pleasurable, delicious and an experience to savor rather than a task to complete.

Two days after his final exam he bought a bottle of washing up liquid and started a year-long challenge. He charged his mates to wash their dishes - every penny he made he re-invested and it snowballed from there. Exactly a year on he had made £20,000. They say you're never too old for love and Colin and Patricia Stevens agree. They were only five years old when they first met at primary school and for Colin, it was love at first sight.
