Michelin starred chef, Glynn Purnell, and cooking legend Rachel Allen present a new series of My Kitchen Rules UK. They will be judging 20 pairs of enterprising and inspired amateur cooks from all over the UK who open their own home restaurant for one ambitious night, in a bid to scoop the £10,000 prize and the right to say, ‘My Kitchen Rules.’ My Kitchen Rules UK is about real people with a real passion for food. Each week, five teams of two from the North, South, Midlands/Wales & Scotland cook a three-course restaurant standard meal against the clock for their rival teams and the judges to critique and score. The strongest teams from each region will go through to the MKR Mansion and finally to the MKR Headquarters where their culinary skills will be put to the test by some of the UK’s best-known chefs and culinary gurus. Who has the flair, finesse, and the fine dining menu to set them apart from the rest? The second team in the region are married couple Celia and Dave, who bring a taste of Africa and the Caribbean to their restaurant for the night, Cee Cee’s Kitchen, in their bid to impress their fellow contestants and the judges. In five hours, they shop, prep and cook a three-course meal beginning with Tropical Cod Two Ways with Fried Dumpling, the main course of Classic Nigerian Stew with Seafood and Okra, Spiced Meat Skewer, served with Yam and Sweet Potato, and for dessert, Equatorial Fruits with Mango Ice Cream, Ginger & Honey Biscuit. Will the couple’s exotic fare be their ticket to the next round at the MKR Mansion?
