Great British Menu

Series 12

Episode 28: Wales Main

Duration: 29 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Wales

This year on Great British Menu, the ultimate professional cooking competition, 24 of Britain's top chefs are competing for the chance to cook at a prestigious Taste of Summer banquet celebrating 140 years of the iconic Wimbledon Championships. The chefs have been challenged to create outstanding dishes that capture a 'taste of summer'. Their menus must reflect the tastes, smells and colours of everybody's favourite time of year and pay tribute to the incredible history and prestige of the tournament.

For the main course, all three chefs are cooking Welsh lamb in the hope of impressing this week's veteran judge.

Nick Brodie, head chef at Llangoed Hall in the Brecon Beacons, is known for his use of local Welsh produce. He is using summer lamb to produce a modern update of a classic dish which he hopes will triumph over the other two.

Phil is taking a risk with barbecued lamb and in an attempt to elevate a humble barbecue to banquet level, he is serving it with many accompaniments. But will he be able to bring everything this together and cook his lamb to perfection?

Paul surprises the veteran chef with a number of unusual ingredients to accompany his lamb. Will Paul be able to pull off these unusual flavour combinations and find himself at the top of the scoreboard? Show less
