Galton Blackiston and Sat Bains

Series two: Midlands and the east

Top chefs Galton Blackiston and Sat Bains represented the Midlands and the east of England and went head-to-head to create a menu for a banquet hosted by the British ambassador to France. Find out more about the series.


Day one: Starter

To kick off the competition, Galton Blackiston from Norfolk, who won the Central region of England heat last year, faced new challenger, Sat Bains from Nottingham. Galton aimed to please with a classic ham hock terrine with piccalilli, while Sat went for an original take on ham, egg and peas.


Day two: Fish course

Galton cooked wild sea bass with a sea bass mousse and brown shrimp sauce and Sat made lemon sole with oysters and muscovado jelly.


Day three: Main course

Galton and Jenni

The Michelin-starred pair were both determined to take pole position for the main event, the main course. So who came out on top? Sat with beef or Galton with lamb?


Day four: Dessert

Galton showed off a not-so-traditional trifle, while Sat was competing with his twist on raspberry sponge. When the judges declared almost universal displeasure at Sat's initial dessert, he took the opportunity to create a new dessert for the final week.


Find out which Midlands suppliers Galton Blackiston and Sat Bains used to create their great British menus.
