I love to play with food, coming up with something new,” she says.
Hamese is originally from Moletjie and studied hospitality at the Senwabarwana FET campus.
“I chose hospitality studies because that is what I loved; I love food and cooking. My favourite meal to prepare is grilled chicken with greek salad,” she says.
Besides spending time in the kitchen, she enjoys travelling, watching movies and exercising.
The best meals to enjoy during hot, summer days are cold meals such as salads. “Summer is everyone’s best season, but it is always difficult to decide what to eat during summer.

To prepare her special delicious chicken salad you will need: sliced lettuce, sliced cucumber, grilled chicken breasts, croutons, onions, diced feta cheese, salad dressing, parsley and peppadew for garnish. Mix them together to enjoy a delicious summer chicken salad.
