Great British Menu 2021 episode 14 - North East, Yorkshire and the Humber Mains and Dessert

Great British Menu 2021 episode 14 – North East, Yorkshire and the Humber Mains and Dessert: The three chefs are halfway through their heat, and the competition couldn’t be tighter. Again, they each serve up their own interpretation of the brief to honour British invention and innovation.


 

 



For their main courses, one chef is showcasing fallow deer in their dish celebrating the invention of cats eyes, while another pays homage to the imposing Humber Bridge with a dish that draws on the best ingredients to be found in the counties at either end of the bridge’s span: Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. The final chef is paying tribute to a miners’ lamp that saved many lives in the pits of the North East of England with a dish centred around mutton. Whose inventiveness in the kitchen will veteran judge Simon Rogan rate the highest?

Only two will proceed to Friday’s judging and have a chance to represent the North East, Yorkshire and the Humber at the regional finals.

Along with Masterchef, Great British Menu is a cooking show that has been running so long it is basically a national institution by now. However, even after all these years, Great British Menu manages to keep fresh with new ingredients for season 16 – former judge Andi Oliver is now presenter, with cook, writer and broadcaster Rachel Khoo taking her place on the judging panel.

It’s a very formidable line-up – so can the chefs impress with a menu based on innovation to celebrate thirty years of the world wide web?
