Staying slim? Nigella’s found the recipe

- By Susie Coen Showbusine­ss Reporter

HER indulgent recipes are hardly famous for being low in calories. And Nigella Lawson’s love of ingredient­s such as salted caramel and cream has seen her dress size yo-yo over the years.

But the TV chef showed yesterday that she has maintained her recent impressive weight loss. The 58-year-old looked trim as she displayed her svelte figure in a close-fitting navy blue dress.

Miss Lawson was in Melbourne to promote the latest season of Australian Master-Chef, on which she is a judge. The mother of two recently revealed the secret to her weight loss – which has seen her drop from a size 16 to a size 12 – is doing yoga three times a week.

‘I have to do something I enjoy, otherwise I wouldn’t do it,’ she told Good Housekeepi­ng. ‘The older I get the more I realise I have got to do lots of stretching. So even if I’m not doing yoga, I make myself do lots of stretching.’ She says she balances her diet by eating healthy foods – such as kale and avocados – as well as sweet treats.
