Samin Nosrat is one of the fastest rising stars of the culinary world, but despite her own Netflix series, a best-selling debut cookbook and international acclaim, she says her family has only recently realised how successful she has become. The Iranian-American writer and cook tells Emily Thomas her mum finally twigged when she saw an advert for Samin's Netflix series while at the gym. Plus, Samin discusses her struggles with fame, therapy, and impostor syndrome. (Picture: Samin Nosrat at the Netflix FYSEE Food Day in Los Angeles, California.
