MY COOKING BOX
What inspired My Cooking Box?
We just couldn't find a true
representation of our home country's
flavours here in Cyprus!
Teresa's passion for
cooking is infectious
Teresa and Roberto, an expert gastronomic
couple from Italy who live here on
Aphrodite Hills, are bringing the finest
Italian ingredients to Cyprus in the form
of 'My Cooking Box'. We love the concept
and the end results! A cooking experience
that brings everyone together using recipes
created by Italian chefs, with exquisite
Italian ingredients conveniently boxed up;
it's fun, created with love and SO tasty!
Teresa tells us more:
Tell us about My Cooking Box
It's a magic box with all you need to
recreate an authentic Italian recipe at
home. The recipes are simple, it saves you
from shopping and it takes the stress out
of cooking; making it easy to enjoy being
a chef. Open a bottle of wine, prepare the
meal together and savour the true tastes
of Italy. It is a treat, not an every day idea an experience.
What makes it special?
Each box is from a different region of Italy,
with ingredients sourced from the region,
with a recipe prepared by a well known
Italian chef. Personally I love preparing a
selection of boxes, tasting a bit of each, as
a family or with a group of friends.

Tell us about your passion for cooking
More than a passion for cooking, I love
food! I really started to cook after I
moved to Cyprus 14 years ago; I called
my mother a lot, and made a lot of
mistakes, but I am a perfectionist so I
persisted. I'm now proud that my friends
tell me they can't eat any other pizza in
Cyprus apart from mine! I have learned
that cooking is all about the details of
each and every ingredient.
Why did you choose Aphrodite Hills?
We built our house here after we fell
in love with Cyprus and the lifestyle it
offers; it is a simple but good life, with
good weather, the bluest skies, kind
people and it is safe. We chose Aphrodite
Hills for the golf, the lovely environment
and it is a great location on the island.
Aside from healthy eating, how do you
keep a healthy lifestyle?
Roberto and I golf 3 - 4 times a week and
I exercise every day. We also travel a lot
and have had many experiences abroad.
What is your favourite My Cooking Box?
The Sicilian Busiati; it is a special
wholegrain pasta and the sauce is
fantastic, full of flavour with Sicilian
tomatoes, capers and olives.
