Western Australia Recipe Challenge
The first Western Australia Recipe Challenge competition has been launched by Interchef, with a paper heat that requires chefs to devise a simple grill and barbecue recipe using Western Australia’s highest quality ingredients and to match some of the region’s fine wines from Palandri the competition’s wine sponsor. The winning recipes will feature fresh Barramundi – supplied by New Forest Barramundi who raise the fish at their farm near Lymington.
Eight finalists will be selected to cook their dish, reflecting the relaxed outdoor lifestyle of The Real Australia, in front of the judging panel at the Restaurant Show at London’s Olympia on 20th September 2006.
The closing date for paper entries is 24th July 2006, with The Craft Guild of Chefs overseeing the paper heat and joining the judging panel for the final of this exciting new competition.
The top prize of a trip for two to Western Australia has now been boosted by an additional four-day stopover in Dubai, courtesy of the Emirates Culinary Guild and Churchill China.
The winning chef will then spend five days cooking with Chef Chris Taylor of Fraser’s Restaurant in Perth using all the best seafood and local ingredients, followed by a unique and relaxed food-lovers tour of the region in the second week. This trip will include a visit to Dandaragan Estate, the source of some of Western Australia’s finest Olive Oil, which will be used by the finalists to create their winning dishes.
