À propos de cet audio
Ella Mittas is a writer and cook who lives and works in Melbourne, catering events and private functions. Her Greek heritage and fascination with traditional foods and cooking styles led her to live and work in Turkey and Greece.
Her debut cookbook Ela! Ela! (meaning 'Come, come' in Greek) is a heartfelt journey of knowledge in food, culture and belonging. She's now working on a novel, and we discuss where her writing began and how it has developed over time. She explains being motivated by the necessity to try new things, how she has navigated burnout balancing both her cooking and writing careers, and why creative work can’t always be fun.
Ella shared her recipe for Fakes, a Greek lentil soup, which has become an instant What Artists Eat classic.
