The contest, which is open to all Shepherd Neame managed house's, is a chance for chefs to showcase their skills by creating two dishes using British ingredients supplied by Brakes. Three finalists will be selected by paper judging at the Brakes head office on 30 June and invited to attend the Brakes Food Innovation Centre in London's Covent Garden on Tuesday 2 August for a live cook off to recreate their British menu idea. The most innovative British dish will be chosen by a team of judges including celebrity chef Richard Phillips, representatives from Brakes Group and Shepherd Neame. The winner will receive a one-to-one tuition course from Richard Phillips and a three piece Global kitchen knife set. The winning dish will also be featured on Shepherd Neame 'specials boards' during British Food Fortnight (17 September to 2nd October). To enter, chefs must submit no more than two main courses and two desserts, photographs of the dishes and costing for the suggested menu. In support of British Food Fortnight the main meal must include no less than four British ingredients and the dessert must include at least three. Chefs who wish to enter should complete an entry form and return it to Brakes with a photograph of their dish no later than Wednesday 29 June 2011. Head of food marketing at Brakes, Sally Sturley said: "We are excited to be involved with British Food Fortnight for the 7th year running – and delighted to be involved in the 'Best of British' competition with Shepherd Neame and Richard Phillips. The competition encourages the chefs to explore the best of British products and create some unique and tasty dishes."
