Ayesha Curry is serving straight heat!

The 30-year-old cookbook author and wife of NBA star Steph Curry scorched an internet troll who left a misogynistic comment on her Instagram account Tuesday.

Curry shared a video advertisement for Spotify, where she curated different playlists for her typical day, including songs she likes to listen to while cooking. “What’s the soundtrack to your life?” she captioned the post. 

That’s when one user commented: “Stay in the kitchen.”

Curry fired back in an epic takedown. “Which one? SF, Houston, Miami or San Diego?” she replied, referring to the various locations of her International Smoke restaurant chain with chef Michael Mina.

Fans applauded her comeback.

“Respect Queen! Don’t let bad… people trouble your spirit. Adjust your crown keep being the best version of yourself you can be daily!” user @geminirayne said, adding the hashtag, #BiggerThanTheKitchen.

@qwietst0rm added: “YOU. ARE. THE. BEST.”

Still, Curry received other sexist comments criticizing her career aspirations. User @tav.jam_ commented, “Stay in your lane… you are just a basketball wife.”

“Why am I not allowed to have a passion and a dream and a voice?” Curry told Working Mother magazine in their latest issue. “They think this is something I’ve obtained because of my husband’s income. That’s not true. He hasn’t invested a dime in my restaurant business.”

Curry recently made waves with her “Red Table Talk” appearance, where she told host Jada Pinkett Smith how it makes her feel when women fawn over her famous husband.

“Something that really bothers me, and honestly has given me a sense of a little bit of an insecurity, is the fact that yeah, there are all these women, like, throwing themselves (at him), but me, like the past 10 years, I don’t have any of that,” she said. “I have zero – this sounds weird – but, like, male attention, and so then I begin to internalize it, and I’m like, ‘Is something wrong with me?’ “

Her Golden State Warrior stood up for her, posting a message to critics on his Instagram story: “proud of you for being authentic and Putting yourself out there – not being afraid of potential bull s#*# and nonsense that could and did come at you. Way more positive than negative with all of this. Keep being you. I love you.”
