Celebrity chef, author and TV personality Ken Hom is acknowledged as one of the world's leading experts on authentic Chinese and Asian cuisine and this year celebrates his 30th anniversary as the UK's best loved chef.
An opportunistic meeting with Madhur Jaffrey at a party in New York in 1982 resulted in Madhur recommending Ken to the BBC. Within a year he was offered his own TV series, debuting in 1984 and as they say the rest is history! Ken has been credited with almost single-handedly introducing the nation to authentic Chinese food and the delights of using a wok.
Since then Ken has never been far from our TV screens, recently starring in his own TV series and is a regular guest on BBC Saturday Kitchen. In the last 18 months Ken has sold over 14 million chilled ready meals and over 2.6 million portions of egg fried rice - enough for everyone in Greater Manchester!
In 2009 he was an awarded with an honorary OBE for 'services to culinary arts'. Ken has published over 80 books worldwide, has worked as a consultant for hotels and restaurants and cooked personally for presidents, prime ministers, celebrities and royalty.
