Patti Ampofo Sloley’s Howdy

Hi Everyone

A big hello from me to you all. Here’s a bit about what I’m up to…

I am married to an English guy l met in my home country Ghana, and we have lived in England since 1985 and have two grown up sons.

I have also written two cook books in the last ten years, ‘A Plate in the Sun’ with modern fusion recipes and ‘A Date with Plantain’ with 51 ways with plantain, my favourite vegetable and probably the vegetable world’s best kept secret. I am a creative fusion chef/demonstrator and work at the Novelli Academy cookery school with a French Michelin star chef called Jean Christophe Novelli, where I am Front of House and run a course titled A Taste of Africa. I also demonstrate at food festivals, in schools, in people’s homes and on TV. I also host our local BBC radio from time to time and run Spice Workshops

I must say, l have an amazing time doing it all, especially as I didn’t plan any of it, but I’ve been told that ‘Life is what happens to you when you’re busy making plans’. 

If you’d like to see some of what l do, I’m on Instagram as – pattismenu. I have also written my very first poem, celebrating Maya Angelou, who totally inspires me. You will find my poem on my website www.pattismenu.com

I wish you all a very happy reunion. Also if any of you are ever in London and would like to meet up, it would be wonderful to see you.

My best wishes

Patti xx
