I tell you what you know, you've hit middle age
when you're really super excited and fangirling over an internet
cook And I'm so excited to be I'm so excited
to be talking to you and to say to you,
thank you for making dinners easy.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
The fact that you call the air fryer queen. We've
got to love you.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
She's the queen of everything.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Actually, And for those that don't know, I highly recommend
that you follow Steph because you do all cooking in
like one pot or one dinner tray. You have great
tips like chop everything you know in one go and
freeze it. Oh my god, there's so much to unpack.
But I guess, firstly, a big congratulations. This kind of fame,
it just must have taken you by surprise. Now you're
(00:47):
like the best thing on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Oh holy moly, it's what. I don't quite know how
it happens. It's funny how I have a lot of
people say to me, you know what, what's your secret
to success? And I said, you know, the minute I
stopped seeing a food snob and started showing people what
I actually do at home, things just went crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
You're on the way to becoming Australia's most famous home cook.
What do you what do we call people like you?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Like?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Amazing? But do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah, I'm a cook. I've done my time in a
professional kitchen as a chef, but I really do call
myself a cook. I think that's because of what I share.
I guess online more than anything, and I think it's
more relatable with a cook rather than a chef.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, because if I see the word chef, I'm like,
I'm out. But if I see them, if I see
the word cook and there's one pen and it's done
in fifteen minutes, I'm like, show me more. Actually, here's
a good question for you. You've got a cookbook coming out
Easy Dinner Queen. But then at the same time, like,
do you think people are going to buy books when
they can so easily access you on social media?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Well, according to the pre orders, yes, they are, okay, awesome.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
That's good to know.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
I think it's a thing about cookbooks though, that the
people actually like the pile. You know how, You've got
a couple of cookbooks and they actually become part of
the It's like an ornament in the kitchen. You can
just have them there and it looks pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Absolutely, And I think there's something different about being able
to flick through a cookbook quickly and go, oh, yes,
that's what I'm going to cook for dinner, Whereas I
think to grab your phone, you've got to sit down,
you go to flick through and see. I just think
there's something nice and easy about picking up a cookbook
and having a bit of a flick.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Well, let's unpack what's in the book, but also your
most famous recipes, Like, what were the ones that have
gone really viral?
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Oh, there's some really stupid viral ones, but I don't
know why they went viral. So the most viral one
I have ever had, and I think it's up to
like thirty million or something ridiculous like that, now is
I don't well, is you know the old turning a
cand of a commense milk into a caramel? Do you
remember that when you were younger?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
My mum still does it. She makes caramel pie for
every occasion. That's exactly what she does.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yeah. So I did that in my slow cooker and
it just went crazy. It's like people just had there's
like there's a whole generation of people that just didn't
know how to do that, and it just went a
little bit mad.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Steph, you inspired my husband. He cooks his steaks in
the airfry now all the time and believes that they're
tender and keep the juices in better. He's fully into
it because of you.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Yeah, I think you can get it really accurate if
a yes, right, Whereas in the pan it's like it's
it's tricky because you know, very war heats and all
the rest of it. Yeah, I stand by it.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Do you seal it before you put it in?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
No? I don't, but you can absolutely, But I recommend
you see it after because the steak's already nice and hot.
You get your pan nice and hot, and then you
see it like super quickly when your steak's already really
hot and warm.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I recommend anyone listening now to do that, to do
exactly what Steph says, because Jared was inspired by you
and now it's what he does and our steaks are
mind blowing.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Oh wow, yeah, she's salivating now.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, you've got an air fry. I do tell step
about your last steak cooking?
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Oh yeah, have you ever seen ice hockey because I
cooked about three ice hockey pucks and even the.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Dog wouldn't be next step that no one ate anything.
Speaker 3 (04:16):

being my best friend.

there any left since it became Amazon's number one best seller?

we ordered for air Fry Queen because we told out
him three weeks for the air Fry Queen, so we've
ordered double this time. So fingers crossed, we've got enough
for everybody.
