Can a home cook make Crispy Chilli Beef as good as a professional chef? In this challenge, Chef James and Home Cook Mike are both tasked with cooking the same Chinese takeaway classic: Crispy Chilli Beef. They’re given the exact same ingredients, but there’s one twist… the kitchen is split down the middle so they can’t see what the other is doing. On one side, Chef James uses professional techniques, chef shortcuts and years of kitchen experience to build a refined version of crispy chilli beef. On the other side, Home Cook Mike has to work it out from scratch - figuring out how to get the beef crispy, how to balance the sauce and how to pull the whole dish together under pressure. Two cooks. Same ingredients. Same Crispy Chilli Beef. But the results might be very different. At the end of the cook, the wall comes down and both dishes are revealed for the first time. Which version would you choose? If you enjoyed this challenge, watch the Chef vs Home Cook Paella battle here : h
