Monica Galetti nationality: What is MasterChef judge Monica Galetti's nationality?

When she is able to, she still visits Samoa for the Teuila Festival, which is in September, and the Teuila is the national flower.

The festivities include plenty of dancing and food, and it reminds Galetti of living in the Savai’i region of western Samoa, where her family owned a beach house.

She has made sure to bring some of her cooking techniques from Samoa and New Zealand across to the UK, including Maori, which is a New Zealand cooking method.

Food is buried and steamed underground, and she said it was a great method to try as something unique and different.

One of her favourite places in the UK is Cornwall, as she said the coastline reminds her of being back in New Zealand.
