0:00:02 > 0:00:05Disaster Chefs are parents who are rubbish at cooking.
0:00:05 > 0:00:06- Dinner, Charlie! - Nooo!
0:00:06 > 0:00:09They make things like this and this...
0:00:09 > 0:00:11- ..and this!- Disgusting!
0:00:11 > 0:00:15And foodie fanatic Stefan Gates, is the only person who can help.
0:00:15 > 0:00:19He's got just 24 hours to help them master a two course meal
0:00:19 > 0:00:22in a professional kitchen for some fierce critics.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24- Horrible. - BOTH: Get cooking!
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Will they rise like a souffle or flop like a pancake?
0:00:27 > 0:00:29- I've failed! - Will it be yum or yuck?
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Start your blenders!
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Today's Disaster Chef is dad-of-two Andy from Northamptonshire.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08His kids, Bronwen and Cameron, are super Taekwondo medal winners,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11but there's one thing that scares them more than a ninja attack.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13- Dinner's ready! - THEY SCREAM
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Dad's disastrous dinners.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19What?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23This is what Dad cannot do.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26He burns fish fingers.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27He burns baked beans.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30He made a boiled egg that looked worse than when it went in!
0:01:30 > 0:01:32He can't even boil an egg?
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Come on, Andy, that's rubbish!
0:01:35 > 0:01:36SHE GROANS
0:01:36 > 0:01:41If Andy cooks it's either been left in the oven too long so it's dried...
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- It's burnt... - It's fine, look.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48- ..it's just a disaster.- You're doing tea tonight because Mum's out.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51He can't even follow simple how-to-make-dinner instructions.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54"Can you please peel some potatoes then put on to boil."
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Because Andy is the king of takeaways!
0:01:57 > 0:02:00If there's anything more than just switching the pans on,
0:02:00 > 0:02:02I do tend to go down to the takeaway.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I really want my dad to learn how to cook
0:02:06 > 0:02:08because I'm tired of takeaways.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10And when he's not taking out the takeaways,
0:02:10 > 0:02:12he's readying the ready meals.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18This is the microwave. It's Dad's favourite appliance.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Where all Dad's disgusting meals are made.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25What would be really good would be for me to be able to cook
0:02:25 > 0:02:28healthy food for them that they'll enjoy eating,
0:02:28 > 0:02:30especially with their taekwondo.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35MUSIC: "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas
0:02:35 > 0:02:37But at the moment the only sports
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Andy's cooking will prepare them for are...
0:02:41 > 0:02:44..the 100m takeaway sprint and the ready meal marathon.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48HE SNORES ALL: Andy, you're a Disaster Chef!
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Time to call in some help. It's Stefan Gates.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57It's his job to whip the nation's Disaster Chefs into shape.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00No, not that sort of whip, that sort of whip!
0:03:00 > 0:03:03He's going to help Andy break away from the takeaways,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06and give Bronny and Cameron a dad that can cook and will cook.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12- Hey.- Hi, Stefan. Come in. - How are you doing?
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Andy, you're looking like a worried man. So you should be.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17I've heard you're a food nightmare in human form.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- Guys, how bad is he at cooking? - He burns even fish fingers.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Gives us cold baked beans.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25Goes to takeaways all the time.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Show me the sorts of things that he gets up to.- OK.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Is that a pie or a doorstop?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36That's one of my delightful fruit pies.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41As usual, Stefan knows how to crack a problem open quickly.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- HE SHOUTS - That's the way to do it, Stefan!
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Well, that was as easy as erm, well, pie.
0:03:46 > 0:03:51But how about making an omelette to see how bad Andy's cooking is.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Yes. It's time for the Rookie Challenge.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00To make the perfect omelette, Andy needs eggs, ham, milk and cheese.
0:04:00 > 0:04:01Crack the eggs, give them a whisk.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Butter in the pan, add the eggs,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06let it fry, add the cheese,
0:04:06 > 0:04:08add the ham, flip half over.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Garnish. Serve it. The end.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15- You up for this challenge?- Oh, I'm up for it yeah, bring it on.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18I want to see it on this dish and I want it to be absolutely perfect,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21and you have exactly five minutes.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Go!
0:04:24 > 0:04:26First, Andy needs to whisk the eggs.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28But not that many!
0:04:28 > 0:04:30They'll never cook in time!
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Our expert is only using three.
0:04:34 > 0:04:39But in France they only use one, because one egg is "un oeuf!"
0:04:39 > 0:04:40- SHE LAUGHS - Sorry.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43You'll need a little bit of butter, Andy.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Not, not that much!
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Less a knob and more a spade of butter. Urgh.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Stick in the whole packet. Go on, why not?
0:04:54 > 0:04:56There's the ham, next it's the cheese.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58I'll use the human cheese grater.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01No need to be delicate, just chuck it in.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04ALL: Three, two, one.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08So that's butter, cheese and ham soup, with a topping of omelette.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09Delicious(!)
0:05:09 > 0:05:12HE LAUGHS
0:05:13 > 0:05:16It seems to be slightly, soft, Andy.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Mmmm, drink it up.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22That's truly disgusting, I'm very proud of you.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Now, I think I should show you what the perfect omelette does look like.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Dave, give us the perfect omelette.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Nice nails, Dave.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Right, this is the perfect omelette, there. Look at this.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- What can you see? - Yeah, it's got parsley on it.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Yeah, we can solve that.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43We need to go from that...
0:05:45 > 0:05:47..to that.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- Do you think this is actually possible?- No.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Andy. Are you up for the task?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Oh, definitely up for the challenge, definitely.- Yeah. Is it a leap?
0:05:55 > 0:05:57That is one massive leap,
0:05:57 > 0:06:01but I'll take that leap for mankind...and the kids.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Right. Well, that was truly the worst omelette I've ever seen in my life.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Andy just kind of threw everything in,
0:06:09 > 0:06:12hoped that maybe an omelette would happen.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14If he doesn't improve significantly
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I'm going to end up with egg on my face.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Egg on my face, get it? Ah, forget it.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Andy, you are clearly a Disaster Chef,
0:06:23 > 0:06:27you're a problem that needs sorting so this is what's going to happen...
0:06:27 > 0:06:30In 24 hours' time, he'll be cooking two courses
0:06:30 > 0:06:33in this posh restaurant for three mystery judges
0:06:33 > 0:06:36who will vote his food either yum or yuck.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- But first things first. - You up for this task?
0:06:38 > 0:06:39Erm...
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Come on, Dad. Do it for us, please.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- Go on then. - BOTH: YES!
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Yes, I am.- If Andy succeeds, it's culinary glory for him
0:06:46 > 0:06:49and tasty dinners for Bronny and Cameron.
0:06:49 > 0:06:54But if he fails, he'll be doomed to wear the Disaster Chef hat forever.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Guys, we're going shopping. Andy, clear this up. Let's go.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04While they're off shopping, Andy's clearing up,
0:07:04 > 0:07:06using an interesting technique
0:07:06 > 0:07:09which doesn't involve rinsing anything.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Mmm! Tasty washing up liquid.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16It'd just be nice if I could do some dishes that they'd be pleased
0:07:16 > 0:07:20to eat, especially knowing that I'm giving them the right nutrition.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22And it'd be nice for them to actually say to me once,
0:07:22 > 0:07:25"Oh, Dad! Are you cooking tonight?"
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Rather than me saying, "Guess what, kids? I'm cooking tonight."
0:07:27 > 0:07:30And they're going, "Oh, which takeaway now?"
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Let's hope Stefan succeeds
0:07:32 > 0:07:35and doesn't end up washing his hands of Andy.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Stefan's got a couple of ideas up his sleeve
0:07:38 > 0:07:40about what Andy could cook and that would impress
0:07:40 > 0:07:42both the judges and his kids.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44First stop is the butcher's.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46What sort of things here grab your eye?
0:07:46 > 0:07:50- Well, I like the sausages. - The chicken looks lush.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- A lush chicken? Yum! - There we are.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54I mean there are different parts of a chicken.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58If you go for the breast here, then it's a very, very tender bit of meat,
0:07:58 > 0:08:00but you can play with it, you can do different things with it.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Shall we go for that, do you reckon? BOTH: Yeah.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- OK. We'd love to take that. - That's lovely, thank you. Thank you.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Next is the fishmonger's.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10He doesn't look happy.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Maybe he's a bit crabby! Ha-ha!
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Now, for a chef, a crab is brilliant
0:08:14 > 0:08:17because once you get inside, the meat is really, really sweet,
0:08:17 > 0:08:20but do you think your dad could cope with something like this?
0:08:20 > 0:08:21He'd just shove it all in the oven.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Probably wouldn't know where to start with it.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26He wouldn't know where to start?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Stick it on the menu then!
0:08:28 > 0:08:31So, with a chicken, a crab and a few other things in the bag,
0:08:31 > 0:08:33they're off home.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35OK, let's see what you got.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Er, dill.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Some breadcrumbs.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- Mushrooms. - Got some rice.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43It's a lucky dip of ingredients,
0:08:43 > 0:08:46but what's Stefan got planned for our Disaster Chef?
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Time to get Andy in and reveal the menu!
0:08:49 > 0:08:52BLOWS WHISTLE
0:08:52 > 0:08:53This is what we've got for you.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Have you cooked with these things before?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58No. I might have cooked lettuce once.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00But I'm not sure about that.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Andy made a pie that was so hard it needed a hammer to open it,
0:09:03 > 0:09:05- so he might like this! - Get it!
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Argh, argh!
0:09:07 > 0:09:09And the menu will be...
0:09:09 > 0:09:13For starters, crab, prawn and avocado stack.
0:09:15 > 0:09:21And for main course, chicken kiev with mushroom rice and green salad.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Don't look too excited, Andy.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26But never fear, you're going to have a practice session
0:09:26 > 0:09:28tonight with Stefan.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31He's going to teach you how to crack a crab and cook a kiev.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34It's Stefan's Crash Course!
0:09:36 > 0:09:38So for the crab stack, Andy needs to
0:09:38 > 0:09:42separate the claws from the body, break open the claws,
0:09:42 > 0:09:45break open the shell, separate the white from the brown meat,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47peel some avocados, chop some tomatoes,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50make a dressing, roast some pine nuts, whack the prawns,
0:09:50 > 0:09:52tomatoes and crab in a metal tower, remove the metal...
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Finito!
0:09:54 > 0:09:56And remember, if you're cooking,
0:09:56 > 0:09:58take care and always get permission from your adult.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00OK. You've got to be very gentle with it.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03First thing... RIP ITS CLAWS OFF!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Let's get cracking.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07The most important part of the stack is dressing the crab properly,
0:10:07 > 0:10:09and I don't mean in a fashionable jacket,
0:10:09 > 0:10:11but hammering...I mean getting...
0:10:11 > 0:10:14the white and brown meat out of the crab, and prepared for eating.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18But watch out, land-lubbers, there's a surprise in that there crab.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Ooh-arr!
0:10:20 > 0:10:23They're called, dead...men's...fingers.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Really? Is that the best we could do?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33I thought it was quite good, actually.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36He mustn't let those dead men's fingers touch the good meat.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39He also mustn't let those brains and guts get mixed in
0:10:39 > 0:10:41or the whole lot goes in the bin!
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Now the white and brown meat are separated,
0:10:45 > 0:10:47that's them dressed and ready to go out dancing!
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Ha! Or put in a bowl.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53So that's the starter...well...started.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Next it's the chicken kiev.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01To make that, Andy needs to crush some garlic, cut some parsley,
0:11:01 > 0:11:04add it to some butter, roll it into balls,
0:11:04 > 0:11:06slice open the chicken, stick in the balls,
0:11:06 > 0:11:08fold it over, roll it in some flour,
0:11:08 > 0:11:12dip it in some egg, roll it in some breadcrumbs, deep fry it gently,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14whip it out, stick it on a plate,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16add some mushroom rice and green salad.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Enjoy the lovely river of garlic butter!
0:11:22 > 0:11:23Across there. Yeah.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26To get that lovely river, Andy has to make sure the chicken
0:11:26 > 0:11:29isn't split too wide or it will all melt out in the pan.
0:11:29 > 0:11:33So he needs to keep the butter all wrapped up, nice and cosy.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35OK, enough. Fold over the top.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37All of that butter needs to be encased right in the middle,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39so the whole top needs to come over.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Sandwich it in the middle there, beautiful.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Now the tricky bit is making the breadcrumbs stick.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- Chuck it in there. Does it feel strange?- Yeah.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Beautiful. That is ready to go.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Do you know what? Andy started off a bit nervous and unsure
0:11:57 > 0:11:58but he seems to be a quick learner
0:11:58 > 0:12:00so I'm going to throw him in at the deep end
0:12:00 > 0:12:03and he can finish it off while I head home.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04See you tomorrow.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Like any good teacher, Stefan has left Andy
0:12:08 > 0:12:10with stacks to practise, literally.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Stacks of crab, prawn and avocado.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17It's going to fall. Oh, no! It's going to fall.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Timber! Oh. Oh, it's stayed up.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Well done, Andy! That looks almost as good as the expert chef's.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Can this be the same man who made egg soup this morning?
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Quite right, Andy. Two thumbs up.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Andy is kieving it through the night like his life depends on it.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Tomorrow he's on his own in a professional kitchen
0:12:36 > 0:12:39as he tries to get the magic yums from our Disaster Chefs judges.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Help!
0:12:44 > 0:12:4624 hours ago, all Bronny and Cameron's Disaster Chef dad
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Andy could make was a mess, or a phone call to the takeaway.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53But these martial-arts-mad kids need to stay fit and healthy.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56So Disaster Chef master Stefan Gates
0:12:56 > 0:13:00has had Andy in training to cook something that will impress
0:13:00 > 0:13:02both his kids and the mystery judges.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Today he must rustle up restaurant-standard food
0:13:05 > 0:13:09from a professional kitchen in the swanky nearby hotel
0:13:09 > 0:13:13to try and bag yums, not yucks, from three mystery judges.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy!
0:13:18 > 0:13:22Right. Andy, Bronny and Cameron are just about to arrive
0:13:22 > 0:13:24and this is when the cooking gets serious.
0:13:24 > 0:13:30If Andy succeeds it's glory, honour, happy joy.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32And if he fails it's pain and humiliation!
0:13:34 > 0:13:36My work's done, it's down to Andy.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38HE LAUGHS
0:13:40 > 0:13:42It's Andy's A-Team, on a very tight budget.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Have they brought their A-game?
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Andy's all dressed up. The crab will be jealous.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52Oh, yeah!
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- Now I'm ready. - THEY LAUGH
0:13:56 > 0:13:57Come on, crabs.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00OK. Stop talking, get cooking.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04Stefan's left him to it, but Andy's cracking through it.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Oh, no. No, no, no, no. I don't think that's right, Andy.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Our expert is carefully scraping the brown meat out
0:14:16 > 0:14:18and leaving the guts behind.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21While Andy's pulling the whole lot out
0:14:21 > 0:14:23and sticking it in the bowl. Argh!
0:14:25 > 0:14:28- How am I doing, boss?- How are you doing? Well, how are you doing?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I thought I'd come and have a quick look.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Yeah, not too bad. It is fiddly.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Do you know what, you've got a bit of problem there.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Right, this bad news.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41A lot of this stuff here is the intestines of the crab.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44That's going to be horrible.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47There's no way you can serve this.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48Disaster!
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Andy's now put himself under extra pressure,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52because the judges will expect
0:14:52 > 0:14:55a blend of both white and brown meat in the stack.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Having done that, you just need to make sure that everything else
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- is done really, really immaculately well.- OK.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Argh!
0:15:04 > 0:15:05Left Andy for five minutes
0:15:05 > 0:15:07and already he's made a complete howler with the crab.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09I think without all of that brown meat,
0:15:09 > 0:15:12it's going to taste really bland. I think the judges will notice it
0:15:12 > 0:15:16but they can't eat all of those guts, it would have made them ill.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Such a shame, what a bad start.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23While Andy concentrates in the kitchen, the mystery judges arrive.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Think you're under pressure, Andy?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Judge number one Rachel Green has cooked for the Royal Family.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35So if you don't impress this food critic,
0:15:35 > 0:15:39TV presenter and restaurateur, it'll be off with your head.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41I think he's mad. You're mad.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Possibly not, but maybe.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47OK, then.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Zut alors! Judge numero deux.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54Jean-Christophe Novelli, the most magnifique chef on the telly.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56This formidable Michelin star Frenchman
0:15:56 > 0:15:59has won more awards than Andy's had hot dinners.
0:15:59 > 0:16:00Well, nearly.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Cooking is actually... - Yeah?
0:16:03 > 0:16:07..not just a, you know, a vocation, but it's also...
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Uh-huh?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10- ..a way for anyone... - Right.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12- ..using... - OK.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14- ..ingredients... - Right, fine.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16- ..by cooking it... - Totally clear.- ..a way to...
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Yeah, totally. - ..express yourself.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Wow! OK, then.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26The first one was bad but now I'm thinking, "Help".
0:16:26 > 0:16:29- At least it's not me mum, though. - Well, have we got news for you!
0:16:29 > 0:16:32Yes! Judge number three is Andy's mum.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34She's never been happy with her son
0:16:34 > 0:16:37feeding her darling grandchildren takeaways.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39If Andrew doesn't pass the test today,
0:16:39 > 0:16:41she's grounding him until Christmas.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44I believe that Andrew may be scared of me being a judge
0:16:44 > 0:16:48because he knows that I know he can't cook.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51My cooking was bad, is bad,
0:16:51 > 0:16:54but she really lets everyone know it's really bad
0:16:54 > 0:16:58and if it turns out bad today, then everybody'll know.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01There's one thing Grandma can't stand, though.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04If I eat garlic then I'm sick all night.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08Well, thank goodness Andy isn't making garlic chicken then! D'oh!
0:17:08 > 0:17:11The judges are each going to have a vote of a yum or a yuck
0:17:11 > 0:17:12on Andy's cooking.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16It's best of three so he has to get two out of three yums to pass.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20But if he gets two or more yucks, it's back to the chopping board.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23There's less than two hours to go now, and Andy's whacked
0:17:23 > 0:17:27through the starter preparation, and is onto the main course prep.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31First he needs to make Nan's favourite, garlic butter.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33She doesn't even like the smell of it.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37So it's going to be interesting to see how she fares with it.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39I don't think she'll eat it.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45- We'll see. We'll see. - Yes, we will see.
0:17:45 > 0:17:46And Bronny and Cameron will see
0:17:46 > 0:17:49just how much their beloved gran hates garlic.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53Right, Andy, make sure that butter is well locked in by your breadcrumb
0:17:53 > 0:17:56mix or it'll escape into the pan into an utter-butter mess.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59So, what do you reckon, Dave? Is it looking good?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Good lad.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Come on, Andy. You need to hurry up,
0:18:07 > 0:18:10you've got less than an hour to go now and the kitchen is heating up.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14Oi, Chef! We've got some hungry judges out there!
0:18:14 > 0:18:15It'll be ready in a minute.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18- Hurry up! - You can't rush a masterpiece.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22But is it going to be a masterpiece or a disaster piece?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27I've got visions of the omelette and it's all,
0:18:27 > 0:18:30it's all just passed away and now it's been replaced
0:18:30 > 0:18:33by something that's actually genuinely beautiful.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Here comes the tricky bit.
0:18:35 > 0:18:39Andy needs to get his crab stack out of the tube in one piece,
0:18:39 > 0:18:42or it'll face certain failure from the judges.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Oh! Five, four, three, two, one.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- We have lift off! - THEY CLAP
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Bravo! Bravissimo!
0:18:50 > 0:18:53For the starter, Andy had to make a crab, prawn,
0:18:53 > 0:18:57tomato and avocado stack with pine nuts and a dressing like this one.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01It's now time for Andy's version to face the judges.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Here we are, Madame.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Thank you.- 24 hours after he failed to make an omelette,
0:19:07 > 0:19:11Andy's food is about to be eaten by a two Michelin star chef,
0:19:11 > 0:19:13a leading food critic and his mum.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16I feel sick and it's not even the garlic.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26Bof, Jean-Christophe, you are supposed to eat it not play with it.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29For someone who couldn't cook an omelette yesterday, good effort.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38I like the fact it has colours. Freshness. Chunks.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42I was afraid to think of the crab meat to be
0:19:42 > 0:19:45not fresh, you know.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47It's good.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Mmm, seems to be getting a good reception. But Rachel isn't happy.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Don't know about pine nuts, don't know where that comes into it really.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Och, Rachel! What harm can a wee pine nut do?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00The people who Andy wants to impress most are loving it.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- It's really nice. - Mmm.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08I know it's terrible to say it but it does lack a crabby hit.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10It's a little bit too light.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Hey, whose side are you on, Stefan?
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Despite the lack of brown meat,
0:20:16 > 0:20:18it looks like Andy's starter has impressed.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20But the main course is a much tougher task.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25It's tricky, this bit, isn't it?
0:20:25 > 0:20:26It's like juggling.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Did you know to be a chef you need to be able to juggle?
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Well you do!
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Especially when you're making sure
0:20:32 > 0:20:34the chicken isn't over- or under-cooked.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Oh, uh-oh!
0:20:37 > 0:20:40We've got a bit of a problem here, we've got some serious seepage
0:20:40 > 0:20:43so that's the garlic butter coming out there, mate.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Uh-oh! That's just what Andy was trying to avoid
0:20:45 > 0:20:48and could spell disaster with the judges
0:20:48 > 0:20:49as it'll hardly taste of garlic!
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Wait a minute, that could help avoid upsetting Gran!
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Put it up right there, save as much of that beautiful butter as you can.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Time to clear the starters.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Everything all right with your avocado?
0:21:04 > 0:21:06It was absolutely awful.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Mon dieu! But we thought he liked it!
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Jean said it was awful.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13- Did he? - Yes.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- What did you say to them? - I said it was awful.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21Jean-Christophe, you little rascal. Winding those poor children up.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24When I asked him for his comment he said, "Absolutely awful."
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Next, Andy's got to plate the main course.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30But has Jean-Christophe's joke put him off his game?
0:21:30 > 0:21:32OK, you're running out of time now.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35You need to stop being fiddly and you need to be really bold with it.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37But look at that! He's an old hand now.
0:21:37 > 0:21:42Just make sure Gran gets the one all the garlic butter leaked out of.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Brilliant. Oh, I love that.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Chef, I think you've done a good job, there.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50This is the big moment for Andy's main course.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52His task was to make chicken kiev
0:21:52 > 0:21:54with mushroom rice and a green salad.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57But will the judges be cock-a-hoop about Andy's kiev?
0:21:57 > 0:21:59- Madame. - Thank you.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04- Enjoy your meal. - So what, excuse me...?
0:22:06 > 0:22:08What is this?
0:22:08 > 0:22:12It's chicken kiev with rice and mushroom.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Mushroom rice.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Jean-Christophe is really hamming it up now.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Which is odd because he's been served chicken kiev.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22That was so awkward.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23It's good.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27No, it's just a little French joke. Very funny.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Jean-Christophe turned around and went, "What is this?"
0:22:31 > 0:22:33And he didn't look very happy, Chef.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37I don't like the mushrooms particularly.
0:22:37 > 0:22:41Rachel's got a few criticisms but what about Grandma and the garlic?
0:22:41 > 0:22:43I have an intolerance to garlic...
0:22:45 > 0:22:47..and yet I can't taste the garlic in this.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51This is impossible for a Frenchman to understand!
0:22:51 > 0:22:53But here is the real test.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Oh, look at that squirt.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Let's see that again.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Oh, like a garlic butter volcano.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Straight through the middle, there.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04All right, guys, calm down.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06They're even making me feel hungry now.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Wow! That is phenomenal.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- It's really good. - What do you think, guys?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Going to have to start making this at home.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17New family dish.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20That's fine. I'll make this at home, you do the cleaning up.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- Mm-hmm.- That's fine with me.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26- It's nice and crunchy. - It is lovely, isn't it?
0:23:26 > 0:23:29That's what I call happy faces.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Even if Andy fails, he knows he's made these two happy.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36If I was a judge, you'd definitely pass, just on that.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Although one of the judges doesn't like garlic.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Ah, kids! They build you up and then they knock you down.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45I can't believe it, I can't believe it. How can she not like garlic?
0:23:45 > 0:23:47It seems to be a bit of puzzle all round.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50- I really can't taste the garlic. - It's oozing.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52I think he knows I don't like garlic
0:23:52 > 0:23:54and I think he's missed it out of mine.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Ha! If only he'd planned it that well, Grandma.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01It sort of combined very well with the dish.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Salad's OK.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10Rachel Green isn't easily pleased, you know.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13But the big question is, how will they vote?
0:24:13 > 0:24:17So while Andy nervously waits for the judges to call him through
0:24:17 > 0:24:21and hear his fate, let's remind ourselves how far he's come.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26Less than 24 hours ago, Bronny and Cameron's Disaster Chef dad's
0:24:26 > 0:24:30idea of cooking was opening a packet or phoning a takeaway.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34But after being mentored by a food expert...
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Well, nearly...our Stefan,
0:24:36 > 0:24:40today he made an amazing two course meal for our panel of three judges.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Food critic and Royal caterer, Rachel Green.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Formidable famous French chef Jean-Christophe Novelli.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48And garlic hater Grandma!
0:24:49 > 0:24:51And he's had a few ups and downs along the way.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54There's no way you can serve this.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56But how will the judges vote?
0:24:56 > 0:24:58What is this?
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Can Andy get the two out of three yums he needs to pass?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03It's time for The Verdict!
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Remember, two yucks from the judges and he's crumble.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11Rhubarb crumble.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Are you ready to find this out? - No.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Rachel. Can we have your verdict, please?
0:25:18 > 0:25:20It's Royal Caterer Rachel Green.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22She had a lot of complaints during the meal
0:25:22 > 0:25:25but can she help make Andy king for a day?
0:25:29 > 0:25:31- ALL: Yes! - Look at that!
0:25:31 > 0:25:33- Well done, Chef. - Thank you.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Really good, well done to you.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Jean-Christophe, can we have your verdict please?
0:25:38 > 0:25:41A yum or "yurm" from Jean-Christophe here
0:25:41 > 0:25:44and Andy has got the two out of three he needs.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46He enjoyed winding Bronny and Cameron up
0:25:46 > 0:25:49but which way is he going to go? Ooh!
0:25:51 > 0:25:54I have been cooking for a long, long time.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- Yeah, good for you. - I saw many, many dishes...
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Yeah. Allez, allez.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- I'm afraid... - Allez, Jean-Christophe!
0:26:02 > 0:26:04THEY CHEER
0:26:04 > 0:26:06I just high fived myself!
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Andy has passed! Unbelievable!
0:26:09 > 0:26:14He might have passed but his harshest critic is last.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16At the risk of family disaster,
0:26:16 > 0:26:19shall we find out if you got a clean sweep?
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Yeah, go on. Yes please.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23OK.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Grandma. What's your verdict?
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Beneath that sweet exterior is a heart of ice.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34She's surely going to vote yuck and bring him back down to earth.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Is she? Oh!
0:26:37 > 0:26:40- Sorry, And. - THEY CHEER
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Good old Grandma, she's made it a hat trick.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48And speaking of hats, he doesn't need this old thing anymore.
0:26:48 > 0:26:49Oh, and look!
0:26:49 > 0:26:54His family and friends have just arrived to celebrate with him.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57First of all I need to strip you of your title as Disaster Chef.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00You are now a real chef.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:27:04 > 0:27:07I never thought I'd be standing next to my dad with that hat on.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10I thought he'd always have the Disaster Chef hat on.
0:27:10 > 0:27:11I can't believe the comments.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14At one point I heard Jean-Christophe say he was a genius.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16I was worrying about it
0:27:16 > 0:27:19cos I didn't think if he could pull it off, but he managed to.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21And I'm very proud of him for that.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24In the kitchen, a genius? This is my husband! Amazing!
0:27:24 > 0:27:26I couldn't ask for anything better.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29To get that kind of comment and to get a yum
0:27:29 > 0:27:34from two top critics, including a Michelin chef
0:27:34 > 0:27:36and my mum.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Just amazed, absolutely amazed.
