When, on May 16, 2013, Li Ruowen uploaded her first cooking video on YouTube-a video of her making white asparagus wrapped with Italian ham-she had little inkling how it would shape her life. Since then her hobby has grown into a lucrative career.

Known on the internet by her pseudonym, Amanda, Li now has accumulated more than 10 million followers across numerous social media platforms.

This month, after four years of preparation, Li launched her first cookbook, Amanda Tastes, which has 94 of her recipes for preparing meat, vegetables, seafood, baked goods, sauces, snacks and desserts.

Part of that preparation included translating Tamar Adler's book, An Everlasting Meal: Cooking with Economy and Grace, before publishing her own guide to cooking.

"The theme of my first cookbook is homemade dishes," explains Li, adding: "I hope my readers can find inspiration for their daily meals and enjoy cooking them."
