JAMIE OLIVER ‘GOOD FOOD BRINGS US TOGETHER'
Since bursting onto our screens in 1999 as the cheeky ‘Naked Chef’, Jamie Oliver has become one of the world’s most successful foodies.

Over two decades, he’s amassed a string of top-rating TV shows and bestselling cookery books (he’s the UK’s biggest-selling author of all time after Harry Potter creator J. K. Rowling), all of which have helped revolutionise the way we cook.

Not content with resting on his foodie laurels, Jamie, 46, has also used his fame to become a heroic public campaigner – training up troubled youngsters as chefs, campaigning for decent school meals and most recently taking on childhood obesity in the UK. To use his signature catchphrase, ‘pukka’, doesn’t do his achievements justice.

“My family aside, that’s my greatest achievement,” Jamie tells New Idea. “That was something I was very passionate about and while I still have further to go, I’m still very proud.” Now, Jamie has added to his legacy with his latest culinary gift, Together: Memorable Meals, Made Easy.

As many families remain separated, limited to Zoom calls again this Christmas, Jamie’s book is helping reconnect loved ones through good food. It couldn’t be more needed – especially at this time of year!
