Ontiretse ‘Onti’ Molloyi (32), Digital Marketing and Communications Specialist, Mahikeng

Signature dish: Five-spiced flavoured pork belly with parsnip puree and chips, pickled apple, fennel and cucumber.

Favourite heritage food: mogodu, samp (which she enjoys with Tshotlo).

Stylish and very lovable, Onti is a devoted wife and mother of two who was encouraged by her children to enter. Her background in catering exercised her creative muscles, however, due to Covid she’s back to a corporate job. As a mom who has to prep healthy and delicious suppers for her family, Onti is inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi's creative treatment of vegetables.

Her earliest memories are of being in the kitchen at age 10, helping her mom bake and that’s why baking is her first love. Influenced by French cuisine, she also enjoys making comforting Italian dishes for her family. Although she is now back in the demanding corporate world, Onti still finds time to offer weeknight online cook-along sessions from her kitchen.
