IF you’re giving your home a clear-out this spring, Natasha Corrett wants you to spare a thought for your kitchen.

“We spring clean our wardrobes and chuck out all the old clothes we don’t want to wear any more,” says the chef and food blogger.

“I do a bit of a cull in my kitchen and find things I don’t really need. The amount of times I’ve gone through my drawers and found measuring spoons broken in half, blunt knives...”

The author of the Honestly Healthy blog and cookbooks, offering tips and recipes for health-conscious foodies, Corrett knows a thing or two about kitchens.

In fact, she’s currently helping her mum, celebrity interior designer and former Dragon’s Den investor Kelly Hoppen, to design the functionality of her new one.

Hoppen has been “an amazing mentor” to the 31-year-old chef, whose father is the restaurateur, Graham Corrett.

“My mum said to me, ‘As long as you’re passionate about what you do, you’ll succeed, because that’s what’s going to get you through those late nights and early mornings and working on the weekend’, and she was right,” she saysHOneshealthhe.

Corrett — an advocate of the alkaline diet, which involves eating mainly alkaline foods for the optimum pH balance — has also teamed up with Currys PC World to create new recipes based on some of the most popular foods and kitchen appliances on social media (with papaya, roasted aubergine and pomegranates getting people talking and sharing snaps).

“My whole philosophy is my 70-30 rule. So 70% of the time, you follow the alkaline way, 30% of the time you do whatever you want, whether it be eating meat, having a chocolate brownie, or a glass of wine or a cocktail,” she adds.

With 120,000 Instagram followers and 26,000 on Twitter, Corrett’s approach to healthy eating has been a hit.
