Speaking to Radio Times, the 34-year-old celebrity chef revealed that he is sixth-generation Sudanese and would like to find out more about his heritage.
"We only found out about [my heritage] when my grandfather's brother died but, as it happens, there are quite a few Olivers who are a bit swarthy and have got curly hair, so I suppose that may explain it," he said.
"To be honest, I don't have many details about the Sudan side of things, but I'd really like to go on Who Do You Think You Are? to find out!"
The BBC One series has featured celebrities including Kim Cattrall, Martin Freeman and Davina McCall in recent episodes.
Oliver's new series Jamie's American Road Trip begins Tuesday, September 1 on Channel 4.
