Food, Drink & Dining Out Bigfooty MasterChef Contest

[Proper Gander]

Is anyone up for a cooking / food preparation contest? Much like the song contest only with food. Okay so this could be posted in the lifestyle thread, but I figure the song contest lives here so why not this? Anyway, I’m happy to organise.

Rules are contestants have a week to create a delicious dish (or a meal) exotic or simple, whatever suits you. Can be cooked or uncooked (tartare, sashimi, bowl of cornflakes all permitted) so long as it is food. Doesn‘t have to be your original, it can be following another’s recipe, but in that case should be attributed.

Entries are posted by 12AM Sunday - entries should include a recipe, or at least a description of what you put together, a photo of the finished dish, and a description of what it was like to eat. Secondary photos of preparation or similar can be included at your discretion.

Each week will have a set theme. Can be a cuisine like Mexican, an ingredient like chocolate, a diet like vegetarian, a concept, whatever within reason.

Contestants vote 3,2,1 Brownlow style (no self voting) and the winner gets bragging rights, and sets the next original theme.

If you would like to give it a go, reply below

Going gangbusters so far. I’ve got a love react from Headless, a bird who just wants to eat and one contestant which is me. I might start tagging likely people.

Oh yeah - I think the terms of the competition could be broadened to include food that isn’t a dish or a meal, for those into making their own hot sauce or sourdough or beer or whatever.

I'll give it a crack, I'm always cooking (to varying degrees of success)

I made an absolutely magic slow-cooked bean chili last week served on brown rice with sour cream and strips of salt-crusted porterhouse on top. It was *ing amazing.

Unfortunately the only evidence is a couple of containers of chili beans in the freezer.

I’ll hassle some people and make them enter with some pointed threats or something, then you’re on

OK
I believe you,some art/food thing I missed.
Proof is in the pudding you're crushing the leaderboard in this contest.
I've got to cook this coral trout fillet tonight and I just realised I've got FA oil.

I just found this thread and it doesn't look like it took off so how about I try and get it going again.

How about we start with something straight forward

Mexican Food

And we can do it up to 5th May

Burritos. Nice and easy recipe. Could have added flavour to the rice. Didn't have cilantro but taste amazing.
