The Good Food & Wine Show, in conjunction with Australian Women's Weekly, is searching for Australia's good food chef.
If you have flair for creating fine fair, then send through your original three-course dinner menu and you could win $20,000 worth of Maytag kitchen appliances.
To enhance your dishes, menus must include at least one ingredient from the Gourmet Garden range of premium herbs and spices. Ideal for time poor cooks, Gourmet Garden herbs and spices are so easy to use.
The Australian Women's Weekly food director, Lyndey Milan, and Fresh TV host, Pete Evans, will choose two semi-finalists to visit the Good Food & Wine Show in their nearest capital city, where they will cook one dish from their menu. The successful semi-finalist from each Good Food & Wine Show in Victoria, New South Wales, Western Australia and Queensland will then attend the Brisbane Good Food & Wine Show for the grand final, where the winner will be announced.
