Ayu S.

(Yes, we’re lucky enough to have two women named Ayu contributing!)

Country: Indonesia

Nasi goreng. Jackfruit pancakes. Ayu modestly dismisses her own meals as if they’re not noteworthy, but that’s so much a matter of perspective, isn’t it?

Part of the concept of On Her Table is that the simple, everyday recipes that women around the world eat are incredible treats for those of us outside the culture. And Ayu’s recipes are exactly that. Every bite we ever took of her delicious food was a moment of pure bliss.

Underneath Ayu’s unfailing cheerfulness and warmth is a determination to provide the best life possible for her son. She’s one of the sweetest people we’ve ever met, and we’re thrilled to be able to help her share her recipes with people around the world.
