From cooks sharing their meals with us from the comfort of their homes, to the best utensils to have in your drawers, this year we saw the rise of the home kitchen. A space where magic lies between madness and mayhem, we chatted to Fatima Ebrahim about her dumpling journey in the kitchen. Unique food trends promise to follow us into 2023, and we have made sure that you know just where to find them.
Chew & A
Fatima Ebrahim of the local brand, Dumpling Girl, chats to us about her journey in the kitchen.
Please tell us a little bit about yourself.
I'm an English teacher who works in an international classroom. I love to travel and explore different cultures and cuisines. One of my favourite things is to remake foods I've seen in movies and series, and that's what inspired me to make dumplings at first. I saw them in a movie and imagined how they'd taste, and then went about creating it. Sharing food is definitely one of my love languages, and the very first time I made my dumplings they were a hit.
