Sydney’s resident “tamale queen” Rosa Cienfuegos has been dishing up authentic Mexican street food since 2018. Finding inspiration in the Mexican laneways of her childhood, the flavours are as vibrant as the colours. In this issue, we share recipes from her new cookbook Comida Mexicana. “Food is very important to Mexicans. It reconnects us to our past, our families and our feelings,” explains Cienfuegos.
