“MAX FLAVOUR WITH MINIMUM FUSS”
hi there!
I’m Sam Parish—author of COOK ME, freelance chef, food writer, editor, recipe developer, podcaster, food stylist, and food TV producer… oh, and also a mum, wife, best friend, gin and tonic maker, eggs benny orderer, and flat white drinker.
Cooking is my obsession, and my mission is simple: to make it easy, accessible, and always YUM! MAX FLAVOUR with MINIMUM FUSS.
This website is a little window into what I’ve done—and what I continue to do—in the world of food. So, a big hello, and let’s chat soon!
I’m all about cooking smart, not hard—because time is precious, and food should be both achievable and worth it.
As a freelance chef, recipe writer, and stylist across print, digital media, and events, I offer a broad range of services, including:
Recipe Development & Consulting – Writing, developing, testing, and consulting on recipes for publications, publishers, food producers, and agencies.
Food Styling & Photography – Cooking and styling food for advertorials, packaging, editorial shoots, TV, and more.
Cooking Demos & Classes – Organising, managing, and leading food demonstrations and hands-on cooking classes including incursions at schools.
Food & Travel Writing – Creating engaging food and travel features for editorial and online platforms.
Food Producing for TV & Film – Behind-the-scenes expertise in bringing food to life on screen.
On-Camera Cooking & Styling – Preparing and presenting recipes on video for digital and broadcast media.
