A team of 2 chefs will be given 60 minutes to produce 2 portions of a two-course meal consisting of a main and dessert from a mystery basket of ingredients supplied by our sponsors Fresh Direct. The ingredient list will be emailed to the competitors @ 5pm the night before the competition. Please make sure you use an email address that is monitored. The mystery box will consist of a set protein and a choice of primary ingredients for the accompaniments to the main course and dessert.  There will also be a larder table where chefs can choose additional ingredients. On arrival competitors have to submit their 2-dish descriptions to the judges then they may start weighing out their ingredients behind the scenes, and will be allowed onto their station 15 minutes prior to the start of the competition. All small equipment [including a set of weighing scales] and containers for the ingredients is the responsibility of the competitor. Service of the dishes may commence after 30 minutes and must be completed before the 60 minutes. Competitors will need to provide a menu card for the judges to review with an allergen sheet.
