Great British Menu· Season 12 · Episode 1
London and South East - Starter
This week, it is the turn of three chefs from London and south east England who are all first timers in the competition. The chefs meet their surprise veteran judge and cook their summery starters. Michelin-starred Tom is eager to prove himself. His starter is based on the classic Spanish dish gazpacho and his summer memories spent with his grandma in Marbella. Rising star Selin creates a reworked version of the cucumber sandwich with influences from her Turkish Cypriot heritage, while internationally trained Mike makes a courgette salad inspired by his time in Australia.
