Gregg Wallace, Monica Galetti and Marcus Wareing are side by side in their search for the UK’s finest cooking talent. \n\nIn the first heat of the week, six professional chefs from across the UK put their reputations on the line. Each professional’s journey begins with the infamous skills test. Marcus kicks off proceedings when the first three chefs have to attempt his croque monsieur. In just 15 minutes they have to show they can muster this classic French sandwich to Michelin-starred standards. The remaining three chefs face a test set by Monica to create a pea risotto. Can the chefs deliver a dish with flavour, flair, and rice with the right bite to put a smile on the judges’ faces? \n\nUp next, all six contestants have a chance to redeem any earlier mistakes when they cook their own signature dish for Monica, Marcus and Gregg. In one hour and 15 minutes, they must inspire the judges with their creativity, taste and personal style. This is their opportunity to show off their culinary talent before the judges decide which three chefs are sent home, and which three go through to this week’s quarter-final.
