Celebrity Cooks Against the Clock

21-Mar-2008 - [Fundraising]

This year’s Celebrity Cooks Against the Clock fundraiser at Treloar School on 5th March was another roaring success.  Celebrity bag holders Michael Aspel and Anthea Turner provided the surprise ingredients and the cook-off between the two chefs was compered by Delta Radio’s Breakfast Show host, Stuart Clark.  

The two professional Army chefs, who have cooked all over the world, pitted their Cooks against the Clock Celebritiesculinary skills against each other, with the green team led by Corporal Paul Carroll just pipping Lance Corporal Barry Pope of the red team to the post.  The mouthwatering winning dish which included pan-fried breast of guinea fowl with wild mushroom risotto was tasted by Michael Aspel, who also helped the chef prepare the dishes.

The competition was very close and although Anthea Turner offered some enlightening cooking tips it was Michael Aspel’s surprising skill at segmenting a pink grapefruit that won over the audience - as the standard of the cooking from both chefs was excellent.
