From Uzbekistanto the Mediterranean

Hi, I’m Ana—the cook and creator behind Cooking with Ana. Born in Uzbekistan, I’ve lived in Singapore, London and Paris, and now call Antibes home. Each place has influenced the way I cook, from the generous flavours of my childhood to Asian ingredients and fresh Mediterranean produce.

I started Cooking with Ana to share the food I genuinely make at home. What began with short recipe videos has grown into a community of people looking for colourful, approachable meals that are full of flavour.

My recipes are fresh and nourishing without being restrictive, and beautiful without being complicated. Expect accessible ingredients, straightforward methods and plenty of flexible substitutions for real-life cooking.
