Get To Know Me, The Roasted Dad
When I initially applied to be a contestant on Masterchef South Africa, season four, I had to fill out a long application form. The questions and answers below are largely derived from that Q&A form.
Meat Free Mondays…
I had so much fun experimenting with the concept of meat free Mondays. The challenge set myself recently is to create a vegetarian and zero-waste dish at least once a week. This came from the realisation that I am daunted by cooking vegetarian dishes.
The Early Beginnings of The Roasted Dad
It all started in the middle of the pandemic. During lockdown, I started to experiment with cooking more, trying out new techniques and buying different ingredients to create nice dishes with. To capture that journey, I opened a new Instagram account. It was in our kitchen, while enjoying a glass of red, that we threw a few name ideas around, until The Roasted Dad was born.
