A 2-year-old “chef” has learned to make dishes such as spaghetti bolognese, chili con carne, and Welsh cakes.
When Oswyn was born, his 28-year-old mother, Madison Ward from Pembrokeshire, South West Wales, did not feel as close to her daughter as she had hoped.
Ward said, “She loves her dad, so the only way I could get close to her was by involving her in something I enjoy, and that’s cooking.”
At just 11 months old, when Oswyn had just started walking, she began cooking with her mom.
Ward shared, “Cookie brownies were the first dessert Oswyn made. I will never forget the scene of her spilling chocolate everywhere, flowing down from the stove.”
This toddler genius controls the kitchen by measuring ingredients and knowing when food needs to be cooked.
In addition to helping in the kitchen, Oswyn is a devoted fan of British chef Gordon Ramsay and Italian chef Gino D’Acampo, watching their shows like Junior MasterChef, Hell’s Kitchen, and Gordon, Gino and Fred’s Road Trip daily.
While eating breakfast, she is captivated by these shows, enjoying watching them demonstrate cooking techniques.
Ward said, “She absolutely loves cooking, it’s not me pushing her, she just really enjoys doing it.”
This toddler, who is just learning to walk, helped her mom make a perfect roast chicken dinner, choosing all the seasonings herself.
Ward revealed, “She wanted lemon juice, chili, and some bay leaves. It tasted really good.”
In the past few months, this talented toddler has helped her mom make many classic foods like Welsh cakes, cupcakes, chocolate blondies, shortbread, and trifle.
Ward shared that this capable toddler is very good at expressing her needs and takes all the responsibility upon herself. She said, “All I have to do is film and update social media.”
The mother and daughter duo make cookies, pasta, and other delicious homemade foods together in the kitchen every day.
Ward proudly stated, “Oswyn is my best friend, we do everything together now.”
This little food enthusiast refers to British chef Ramsay as an “angry chef” and aspires to become a “funny chef” when she grows up.
