About the Author
Husband-and-wife duo Clarissa and Manu Feildel share a passion for food, family and bringing people together around the table. In Butter & Spice, they combine their rich cultural backgrounds and favourite family recipes to create a cookbook that celebrates love, tradition and the joy of home cooking. Clarissa's Sri Lankan heritage is reflected in her vibrant, flavour-packed cooking, inspired by generations of family recipes and a lifelong appreciation for the power of food to connect people. Her warm and approachable style brings fresh energy to traditional dishes while honouring the stories behind them. Manu Feildel is one of Australia's most beloved chefs and television personalities. Born in France, Manu has built an extraordinary career as a chef, restaurateur, bestselling author and long-time judge on My Kitchen Rules. Known for his passion for French cuisine and effortless entertaining style, Manu has inspired millions of home cooks both in Australia and around the world. Together, Clarissa and Manu have built a life centred on food, family and shared experiences. Butter & Spice is a reflection of their home kitchen, where French butter meets Sri Lankan spice, creating recipes that are comforting, exciting and made to be shared. Filled with personal stories, family favourites and dishes inspired by their travels and heritage, this book invites readers to discover the magic that happens when two culinary traditions come together.
