Jenny Bristow's TV challenge

WHO IS the best cook in your family? Which of your friends dishes up the tastiest meals?

Have you got what it takes to work with a celebrity chef and win the ultimate food fight? An exciting new TV cookery show for BBC NI invites you to find out – it’s a cookery game and the oven gloves are off!

Under the guidance of celebrity chefs Jenny Bristow (acclaimed local good food ambassador, TV cook and author) and Kevin Dundon (owner of an award winning country house hotel and restaurant, author and TV chef), each episode will feature two amateur cooks going head to head in a fun culinary challenge.

Working against the clock, the amateur cooks will have to prepare their own three-course meal for a gathering of family and friends. Not knowing who has prepared which dish, the guests will be asked to secretly vote for them based on taste and appearance.

In a final twist the cook who is declared the winner, will not necessarily be the one who earns most points from the dinner guests voting - stepping into the role of judge will be a pre-determined family member or friend who is willing to risk denting a few egos by declaring their own personal favourites and ultimately choosing which cook is the “dinner winner”.

In addition to the personal glory of winning, the triumphant cook will be rewarded with a tailor-made treat; including delights such as tickets to an entertainment event or a luxury spa treatment. So along with “bragging rights” our two competitors have everything to cook for.

Casting for contributors is currently underway. If you are interested in taking part please call us now on 028 90 573001 or email [email protected]. The series is produced by Green Inc Film and Television for transmission on BBC One Northern Ireland later this year.
