Jamie Oliver's Food Tube has chosen Dalia Dogmoch, the Middle Eastern best selling author, presenter and entrepreneur, to be featured on his channel, making her the first presenter from the region to be showcased on the network.  

The UK celebrity chef’s Food Tube has almost 2 million subscribers and 150 million views, and is now one of YouTube’s most successful food channels.

The network chooses talent from all over the world to be featured, all of which are specifically chosen by Jamie Oliver and his team. 

"Dalia is an amazing new talent, her blend of different cultures and cuisines results in awesome dishes with a Middle Eastern twist. We at Food Tube are looking forward to seeing what comes next" said Richard Herd, head of Food Tube Network Jamie Oliver Ltd.

Syrian-German Dalia Dogmoch, who lives in Dubai and is co-founder of Kitsch Cupcakes, is hoping to make Middle Eastern ingredients and food more mainstream by showcasing classic dishes as well as every day recipes with a Middle Eastern twist.

Her first video, which was uploaded just over a week ago, has already had 27,000 views. 

Dogmoch said she hopes this is just the start of many videos she will do in collaboration with Jamie Oliver’s channel to put Middle Eastern food well and truly on the map.
