A message from our Chef Eman:

“My name is Eman, I am from Sudan, I was born in a city called Kasala. I joined Migrateful because I love cooking. I have my own baking business, I bake cookies and sweets for the Sudanese community around the UK. My goal is one day to get my qualification to be an optician recognised in the UK.

I learnt to cook from my eldest sister. When I was a child we used to play with an empty can, leaves and rocks and pretend we were in the kitchen. Walking down the street in Sudan, you can always smell cooking. Sudanese cuisine is very colourful and uses delicious spices like cinnamon and cumin.

In Sudan meals are always communal –the whole family or household share one large tray. Mealtimes are a very important time for connection and solving each others’ problems. You can’t feel lonely in a Sudanese home. This is the culture I want to share with you.”
