Singer’s go-to culinary creations include spaghetti and meatballs, chicken fajitas

-

Taylor Swift has revealed her three go-to dishes from her favourite celebrity chefs.

Writing in a recently published personal essay for Elle magazine, the singer disclosed the best life lessons she’s learned ahead of her 30th birthday.

“I’ve always cooked a lot, but I found three recipes I know I’ll be making at dinner parties for life,” Swift wrote.

She then went on to detail the dishes that made the cut, spotlighti­ng Nigella Lawson’s mughlai chicken, Jamie Oliver’s chicken fajitas with molé sauce and Ina Garten’s meatballs and spaghetti.

She also let fans in on how she alters Garten’s instructio­ns for making the meatballs, choosing less-complicate­d ingredient­s instead.

“I just use packaged bread crumbs and only ground beef for meat,” she wrote.

Along with sharing the 30 things she’s learned before turning 30, Swift also revealed that she finally feels ready to use her platform to educate fans and plans to speak openly throughout the upcoming U.S. election.

“I took a lot of time educating myself on the political system and the branches of government that are signing off on bills that affect our day-to-day life,” she shared.

“I saw so many issues that put our most vulnerable citizens at risk, and felt like I had to speak up to try and help make a change.

“Only as someone approachin­g 30 did I feel informed enough to speak about it to my 114 million followers ... I’m going to do more to help. We have a big race coming up next year,” she wrote.
