The idea of cooking terrified her. The first attempt to fry an egg was a disaster - she missed the frying pan and the egg ended up on the floor!
When Helen returned from her honeymoon little did she know that her first roast lamb would be thrown away as it was quite inedible. She ordered pizza. Luckily, her husband loves pizza.
Eventually, she discovered cookbooks and realised cooking was not so bad after all. Over the years she slowly began to enjoy working in the kitchen and trying out new recipes. She even had small dinner parties with the guests praising her dishes.
Nowadays, she cannot imagine a day without cooking. Her mother is so proud of her and recently admitted she worried that her daughter would never be able to fry an egg, let alone cook a meal. For a Greek mother this a tragedy!
Her idea of winding down and relaxing is to have family and friends over for chatting, drinking and eating. She is a powerhouse of love and connection embodied through the sharing of good food. Whether cooking for her family or entertaining friends, Helen's enjoyment and satisfaction of a delicious meal is priceless.
Helen has been happily married to Nicholas for 36 years, raised two beautiful children and has recently become a grandmother. She was born and raised in Sydney by Greek parents and has an extensive community of friends from many different nationalities.view less
