0:00:08 > 0:00:09Hello, people.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11- ALL:- Hey.

0:00:11 > 0:00:16I'm Lily, this is Sapphire, Frank, Johnny and Elektra.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18I've dragged in a few of my old friends

0:00:18 > 0:00:19from the Dumping Ground days...

0:00:19 > 0:00:20Oo-oo-ooh!

0:00:20 > 0:00:23..to help with the project I'm doing on healthy living

0:00:23 > 0:00:24at my catering college.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27So, we've all chosen our favourite recipes and we've shoved them

0:00:27 > 0:00:30into a hat for another person to select at random and make the meal.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33The person who suggested the recipe is going to become the chef's

0:00:33 > 0:00:36assistant and is going to tell us exactly why they chose it.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39So, Frank, it's your turn...

0:00:39 > 0:00:41to pick.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42Oooh!

0:00:43 > 0:00:48Elektra's super-quick, fantastic fruit kebabs.

0:00:48 > 0:00:53My kebabs are amazing and fast. I don't have time for messing about.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57Internet-based T-shirt design companies do not run themselves.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00I want food to be like - bam! - ready.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02I want food to be so fast,

0:01:02 > 0:01:04if you put it in the microwave, you go back in time.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06- OK, we get it.- It's quick.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Well, then, why aren't we jump-cutting?

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Come on, people, jump cut.

0:01:10 > 0:01:16Fruit, chocolate, cream, butter and an orange for the zest, that's it.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Please, Elektra, do the ingredients properly.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23I don't have time for grams and amounts, I've already moved on.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Frank, prepare the fruit.

0:01:25 > 0:01:30You'd get a really good mark-up on these if you sold them.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Are you still trying to make fast money, Frank?

0:01:32 > 0:01:33I thought your business course

0:01:33 > 0:01:35was teaching you how to do it, like, properly.

0:01:35 > 0:01:41But, seriously, how much do you think you could get for these?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Hey! Hands off the chocolate.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Jump cut.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50- So take out the stalk...- Mm-hmm.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54..and cut it in half if it's too big.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57Great, go on, no time for talking,

0:01:57 > 0:01:59keep cutting the strawberries, Frank.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09- I'll show you.- Right.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14A mango hedgehog!

0:02:14 > 0:02:17A mango hedgehog. Frank, mate, you're a genius.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19A mango genius.

0:02:20 > 0:02:25We're not going to bother showing you how to cut a banana.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28Although, when preparing it in advance,

0:02:28 > 0:02:32squeeze lemon juice over it to stop it from going bad.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35- You know, this isn't actually cooking, right?- Excuse me?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38You're just chopping up fruit.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40I'm melting chocolate, actually.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Stirring warm things together is considered cooking.

0:02:43 > 0:02:44And, so what, anyway?

0:02:44 > 0:02:50I mean, you've got your five-a-day, vitamins and minerals and fibre

0:02:50 > 0:02:52and a little bit of chocolate and cream because we deserve

0:02:52 > 0:02:56a little bit of chocolate and cream in our lives every now and again.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Don't we, Sapphire?

0:02:57 > 0:03:00Fruit and veg is better for you when you haven't cooked it

0:03:00 > 0:03:03as much. This fruit happens to have chocolate sauce on it,

0:03:03 > 0:03:08which is considered cooking, thank you very much.

0:03:08 > 0:03:13- Frank, show them the sauce. - Erm...we haven't made the sauce.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- Well, we'd better jump cut, then.- I think so.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24Kebab done, sauce on.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Slightly boiling water underneath

0:03:26 > 0:03:28and broken up chocolate bits in a bowl on top,

0:03:28 > 0:03:31not touching the water. It's really important

0:03:31 > 0:03:33that the bowl isn't touching the water.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35And only stir it occasionally,

0:03:35 > 0:03:38otherwise it will turn into something like shoe polish.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Do you remember that bit where Lily said that Frank was cooking?

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Frank is heating up the cream, butter,

0:03:44 > 0:03:46orange juice and orange zest.

0:03:46 > 0:03:50You are such an control freak. Like, you haven't changed a bit.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54I am not, I just can't let the cream boil. Here, let me do it.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58Just keep stirring it and then you pour it into the chocolate.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Yeah, is it supposed to look like that?

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Shoe polish. You should have let me do that bit.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Lily, can we edit this bit out?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Yes, shall we do it again?

0:04:12 > 0:04:15It should be smooth and glossy.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21- Well done, Elektra. - I'm just going to pour it on.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Whoa.

0:04:25 > 0:04:30Spread it out and then leave it to cool.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33- Awesome.- So?

0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Yeah, looks pretty good.- Thank you.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38But you still haven't said why you chose it.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Because I never made it for anyone at The Dumping Ground.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43But, if I was there now,

0:04:43 > 0:04:46this is exactly the kind of thing I would make for everyone.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50Everyone in the kitchen having a laugh, getting chocolate everywhere.

0:04:50 > 0:04:54Basically, ruining everything, but it would be a lot of fun.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56So here's to The Dumping Ground.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02To The Dumping Ground.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05So where are we going to sell these?

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Frank, we are not selling my kebabs!
