Its not every day that you get to meet a legend in the Australian cooking industry.
Well, for me, its never.
I live an ordinary life without sparkle and glamour.
Let me tell you, it was like Christmas came early!!
I have to admit, I was a bit nervous.
You know how some people have the ability to put people at ease and make them feel welcome instantly?
Valli Little has that.
She just happens to be one of the most well known professionals in the Australian food industry.
I see her recipes everywhere!
Theres something else that really struck me about Valli.
Her passion for food.
(Knowledge goes without saying).
She really loves what she does.
You hear about how peoples eyes sparkle when they talk about something they are passionate about.
Remove the arguing part, and my morning with Valli was like spending it with my family.
It was that comfortable and I was right in my zone, chatting about what I love!
I was pretty intrigued to hear more about her latest cookbook,Feel Good Food.
Firstly, Valli is most certainlynota trendy-health food chef.
Actually, its not she is very quick to point that out.
For Valli, it was a health scare last year when she was diagnosed with bowel cancer.
She talked about her treatments and the scare it gave her and her family.

But this pot roasted chicken is a stand out.

PS If you are already thinking that stuffing the herb mixture under the skin is too hard, dont!

), freshness from lime, a touch of sweet and salty.
I only asked her one (very important) question that I jotted down the answer to.
** This is all the cheeses in the world.
