My mum still needs all her pots and pans, so she's not giving me any of hers yet.

I hate eating food on camera - I always cringe afterwards!

I want to be taken seriously: I can cook, I do have qualifications, OK, I do make mistakes, but I want to show that on camera. I'm not perfect. I'm someone who works hard, who is serious about what they're doing. It's substance over style.

I made it quite clear that I want to be female-friendly. I don't want to be too sexualised because a woman in a kitchen is already a loaded image.

I've always felt the easiest way to get to know new culture is through its food even if you don't speak the language. Food will do it for you. It's an universal language.

The geographical location of Sweden and, therefore, short growing season meant that the range of produce is not as abundant like say France, Italy or Spain. This influenced the cooking culture and forced cooks to be creative with a handful of ingredients. It's a very modern way of cooking.

I want to push myself. I'm always up for a challenge.
