I think you are right!
According to this tweet, she types (or has typed) as ESFP (presumably on the MBTI): https://twitter.com/Nigella_Lawson/s...07514474442752
IEE or ESE seem perfectly feasible.
She's an introvert. Maybe ExI.

What is Nigella's Type?
The Barnum or Forer effect is the tendency for people to judge that general, universally valid statements about personality are actually specific descriptions of their own personalities. A "universally valid" statement is one that is true of everyone—or, more likely, nearly everyone. It is not known why people tend to make such misjudgments, but the effect has been experimentally reproduced.
The psychologist Paul Meehl named this fallacy "the P.T. Barnum effect" because Barnum built his circus and dime museum on the principle of having something for everyone. It is also called "the Forer effect" after its discoverer, the psychologist Bertram R. Forer, who modestly dubbed it "the fallacy of personal validation".
I think she could be ESE or SEE. I don't think she has 1D Si, not because she cooks on television. The way she carries herself is too comfortable.

N-ESE>D-ESI
The first 9 minutes or so of the QTV interview seems very abstracted from sensations. They are discussing food as a symbol, Nigella's strong opinions about food, her self-criticism, ways she can help people glean some pleasure and meaning from cooking and not feel so self-critical themselves.
From 14.54 "Feel the fear and cook it anyway" - to 16.03
Her philosophy seems to be about not requiring expertise, feeling grounded by the process of cooking, creating things intuitively and feeling empowered by overcoming an obstacle. It's difficult for me to see her as having prominent Si but her Fe seems so natural and flowy.
It could be that I'm overlooking "Si" content in the interview. @Eudaimonia does Nigella make cooking more approachable for you?

I agree. there's something warm and encouraging about the way she talks through her recipe and that comes across in her writing too.
She refers to herself as a klutz in the kitchen, so right away she says I'm just like you and we're making the recipe together. Or she says she likes to use special eggs with golden yolks (but if the eggs you can buy are paler, or regular, the recipe will taste just as good)
It's nice to be reminded to not feel guilt around buying pre-made food or to associate guilt with food at all, and to think of home cooking as an experience or discovery to be taken at your own pace...not routine. I definitely feel inspired by her attitude.
Maybe I judged too quickly based on that QTV interview you linked to and she does have creative Si. I do think that relatability and loveliness of hers can come from Fe.
Here's another interview of hers, maybe it points to her valued functions ? 'Planning is pretty pointless' – life lessons from Nigella Lawson.
