He revealed that he trained his wife using military techniques, enhancing her endurance and efficiency in the kitchen. He attributed Chef Faila’s cooking ability for extended periods to this specialised training. 

The proud husband highlighted his wife’s unique training, her passion for cooking and fitness as key factors contributing to her success in surpassing existing records.
