LUTON – The Great British Bake Off Muslim winner Nadiya Hussain has landed her own TV show with the BBC1, kicking it off under the title, “The Chronicles of Nadiya”.

“Nadiya’s story on Bake Off touched the hearts of the nation,” said Patrick Holland, the BBC’s head of documentaries commissioning, The BBC reported last week.

“We are delighted that she will be using her cooking skills to take us on a journey to such an extraordinary and changing land.”

Being the first female Muslim contestant on British reality TV culinary series The Great British Bake Off, Hussain naturally attracted a lot of attention.

In her new program, The Chronicles of Nadiya, Hussain will travel from her birthplace in Luton to her family ancestral home in a village in rural Bangladesh in two-part program tracing her culinary roots.

The show is made by Love Productions, which also makes The Great British Bake Off.

The BBC describes it as an “exuberant” food-inspired journey where she will cook dishes from her childhood, share favorite meals with family and friends, learn new recipes and find out what has changed on the food scene in Bangladesh since her last visit a decade ago for her wedding.

The name of Nadiya Hussain has rose to stardom in the UK over the past few months after becoming the first hijabi Muslim winner of Great British Bake Off TV show.

The 31-year-old mother of three children aged nine, eight and five, won competition that was aired in the UK last October, where she beat 11 other amateur bakers competing each week in signature, technical and showstopper challenges.

She also baked Queen Elizabeth’s 90th birthday cake, presenting it to the Queen on TV.
