THE COMPETITION – A BATTLE OF STREET FOOD FUSIONS
ENTRIES CLOSE 14TH FEBRUARY 2025
This year’s competition will see 8 chef teams battle it out to be crowned winner of 2025.
Chef teams of two will be given 45 minutes to create two street food dishes, one savoury and one sweet using any of Tilda’s ambient rice range at the heart of each dish.
The judges for this year’s competition will be looking for creativity, innovation and a demonstration of street food fusions, together with taste, flavour and presentation.
The Prize
The winning chef team of 2025 will take home a cash prize of £500!
There will be three teams chosen as runners up who will each WIN a Tilda rice hamper for their kitchen.
2024 Winners
Last year’s competition focused on data from the FAO, which found that a third of all food produced worldwide ends up in the trash, with chef teams challenged to create a menu using a by-product or something that would usually end up in the bin.
Brett Seagrave and Gareth Williams of Compass Group UK were last year’s crowned winners, creating a show stopping, sustainable dish using Tilda’s Arborio Risotto rice, utilising cod’s head as the food waste element.
For dessert, the duo created a rice pudding with over-ripe bananas and Tilda’s Pure Basmati rice.
TILDA’S AMBIENT RANGE
Our ambient rice range has been chosen for this year’s competition, offering versatile options for the chef team’s menus.
We use a milling process which filters to eliminate starch and broken grains in all of our rice products to produce the highest quality every time, which cooks up light and separate.
Our basmati range is gluten free, vegan and vegetarian, creating an ideal solution in your kitchen and across your menus.
