Mas-isseoyo! Brunei was privileged to host Australian Masterchef contestant Amina Elshafei earlier this year where she partnered with the Australian High Commission in Brunei on a cultural advocacy exploration around the nation. The Sydney local is a mum of two young children, wife, paediatric nurse and home cook who won the hearts of viewers with her charming personality and unique blend of Korean, Egyptian and Australian backgrounds. 

During her visit, Aminah enjoyed an essential Brunei experience traversing the Gadong Night Market for makan-makan , and showcased her own recipies from 2015 cookbook ‘Amina’s Home Cooking’, at the residence of the Australian High Commissioner to Brunei Darussalam, to the delight of invited guests. The celebrity chef also enjoyed a tour around Kampong Ayer’s waterways in search of our famed Proboscis Monkeys and some good kuehs!
