Description

Two teams, the Red Tomatoes and the Green Peppers, are pushed to their culinary limits. The teams are made up of a member of the public and a famous chef. They must work closely to produce a mouth-watering meal with only a few ingredients and a limited budget, in just 20 minutes. 

There’s still room however for a dash of humour and a spoonful of friendly banter. In no time at all, the meals are ready for the audience’s inspection, and their verdict on the winning dish.

Recently updated format features a new Judges’ Table on the stage, giving producers an alternative to letting a studio audience choose the winners.
