Julie Goodwin (born 31 October 1970) is an Australian cook, author, radio and television presenter who came to public attention when she won the inaugural season of MasterChef Australia in 2009, defeating artist Poh Ling Yeow in the final.[1] Goodwin hosted the breakfast show on Star 104.5 on the Central Coast (New South Wales).

Television[]

Goodwin was the winner of the first series of Masterchef Australia. She was selected from over 7,000 applicants.[2]

Goodwin appeared in a weekly cooking segment on the Today program in 2010.[3] She was also involved in a segment on The 7pm Project where families were able to enter a contest to have Goodwin cook at their house live on television.[4]

Home Cooked! With Julie Goodwin was an afternoon cooking series on the Nine Network which screened in 2010. It featured tips and tricks for creating meals at home.[5] It featured celebrity guests such as actor Gyton Grantley, cricketer Steve Waugh, radio and television host Amanda Keller and singer Ricki-Lee Coulter.

Goodwin also appeared in the first season of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! in 2015.

Books[]

As the winner of MasterChef, Goodwin was given the opportunity to write her own cookbook. The book is called Our Family Table (ISBN 9781741669688), published in April 2010. Some recipes were passed down through Goodwin's family, others were given by friends. Goodwin also included recipes she created on MasterChef, such as lemon diva cupcakes and passionfruit 'puddle pie'. The final section of the book is a 'blank' chapter with pages for the reader's photos, clippings and recipes from family and friends.[6]

Goodwin has since released further cookbooks Heart of the Home (ISBN 1742750095) in 2012 and Gather (ISBN 1742750109) in 2013.
