Brin Pirathapan

Brin Pirathapan, 2024 MasterChef Champion, is a fresh and exciting voice in British food known for his adventurous and inventive cooking that draws on both his Tamil Sri Lankan heritage and British upbringing.

 

His cooking style is all encompassing with flavour and excitement at the heart of every dish. This approach has struck a chord with audiences and helped him grow a highly engaged following across Instagram, TikTok and Substack.

 

Additionally, Brin’s debut cookbook 'Elevate' was published earlier this year and soon made it into Amazon’s best-selling food and drinks list with rave reviews. Chef Michel Roux Jr. said ‘If ever there was a cookbook to fill you with joy and happiness, this is the one.’  Both his cooking and personality are full of bold flavours, big energy and plenty of character.

​

Most recently, Brin launched his newest venture, Sri Lankan Table. Driven by his passion for the food he grew up with, the project sees Brin travelling across Sri Lanka to uncover authentic family recipes, meet local producers and source incredible ingredients. Through Sri Lankan Table, he is developing a new generation of products designed to make the island's unforgettable bold flavours simple, accessible and delicious for home cooks across Britain.
