Abstract

Humitas is a traditional vegetarian South American dish. A savoury corn cake, it features a mixture of freshly ground corn and spice with other variations combining the ground corn with onion, garlic, cheese, eggs, and cream, which is then wrapped in a corn husk and then steamed.

"I arrived to Australia as a refugee child with my immediate family. My father was tortured in prison and we were able to flee the dictatorship in Chile and our family found safe haven here. My mother and father continued their human rights advocacy and created a strong bond to support others in need.

Since then I have been involved with non-government organisations, UNICEF, Amnesty International, The Red Cross, The House of Welcome, The Wilderness Society and others in a media and communications position. I also love to cook!"
