John Torode and Gregg Wallace are looking for the country's next star chef as six contestants, picked from thousands of hopeful amateurs, face three high-pressure tests.
First they have to invent a dish from scratch in 50 minutes, using only the ingredients they've been given. Next, the three contestants who've shown the most potential have to survive the heat of the professional kitchen at the restaurant Prism. Finally, they must impress the judges with a two course meal that shows they have flair, skill and the potential to make it as a great chef. Only one of them will get through to the quarter-final.
