About Subi Gnanaseharam

"Being surrounded by great food every day is a brilliant part of my job, and working for Jamie has definitely made me more food-smart and experimental in what I cook.

"I have become more passionate about eating well and understanding where my food comes from, which has led to lots of food adventures with my hubby and 3-year-old son.

"If you ever look at any of my Twitter, Instagram, Facebook accounts, don't be surprised by the amount of cakes and baked goods you see - I love baking just a little!"
