Murder recipe: Recipe Tin Eats founder begs media to be left alone

Recipe Tin Eats author Nagi Maehashi has asked Australian journalists to stop contacting her about the Erin Patterson case, after the triple-murderer revealed in court she used Maehashi’s beef wellington recipe for the lunch.

Maehashi took to Instagram on Tuesday evening to ask “journalists of Australia” to  “please stop calling and emailing and texting and DM’ing me about the Erin Patterson case.

“It is of course upsetting to learn that one of my recipes – possibly the one I’ve spent more hours perfecting than any other – something I created to bring joy and happiness, is entangled in a tragic situation. Other than that, I have nothing to say and I won’t be talking to anyone.
