“My age was the most talked-about thing, but I turned it into my strength.” In today’s podcast, we’re serving up the ultimate recipe for success, featuring the extraordinary journey of Bridget Mangwandi, a 20-year-old South African who made history as the first black woman in her country, and the youngest in the world, to win MasterChef. Her final challenge on the show was to create a two-course meal celebrating African flavours with a modern twist – and she responded by reimagining her mother’s favourite dish. Her reward? The R1 million grand prize (about $55,000). For Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja speaks with Bridget about her journey, her love for food, and how she’s a better cook than her Mum.
