Apparently, Meghan Markle is not yet going to return to the film industry and is trying herself in new roles in life. So, she does an excellent job with the role of a princess. And yet, more recently, Megan tried on a new role – the role of a writer, which, it should be noted, was a great success for her.
Megan has released the “Together: Our Community Cookbook” recipe book. This edition includes 50 recipes.
In this book, Megan was able to embody two of her passions: love of cooking and charity. The fact is that the authors of the recipes were women working in the Hubb Community Kitchen at the Muslim Center in London. These women once resided in the now destroyed Grenfell Tower, which burned down last year.
In January, Meghan paid a secret visit to the Al Manaar Mosque commune, located near the Grenfell Tower, which had suffered a terrible fire. And after that, the duchess visited Al Manaar more than once and not only talked with the victims of the fire, but also prepared dinners for them in the company of other women.
These visits were secret and inspired Her Highness to write a recipe book.
«I immediately felt a connection with the community’s cuisine: this is a place for women to laugh, grieve, cry and cook together. The unification of cultural identity under a common roof creates a space in which one feels normal in its simplest form – a universal need for unity, support, communication through food, in crisis or in joy. Everything that relates to us …“, – writes the Duchess in the foreword of her book.
The proceeds from the sale of the cookbook will first be donated to the Royal Foundation for the Dukes of Cambridge and Sussex, and then transferred to support the Hubb Community Kitchen, with whose members the recipes were created.
