Gaelic-language knockout cookery competition, basically the same format as the [[Gary Rhodes|Gary Rhodes]]-era [[Masterchef|Masterchef]], but with two competitors instead of three each week. Contestants had one hour to cook two dishes (three in the final) before a panel of judges, who would opine on whose cooking was better.

Synopsis

Gaelic-language knockout cookery competition, originally more-or-less the same format as the Gary Rhodes-era Masterchef, but with two competitors instead of three each week. Contestants had one hour to cook two dishes (three in the final) before a panel of judges, who would opine on whose cooking was better. The series champion won a trip to Rick Stein's seafood cookery school in Padstow.

Judges in the first series.

The third series changed the format somewhat, dropping the expert judges and the knockout contest. Each episode is now self-contained and is more Ready Steady Cook than Masterchef, with a member of the public bringing in a selection of ingredients and providing a loose brief for the contestants, as well as judging the food at the end.

Trivia

Filmed at MG Alba's studio in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis.
