THE search for the next Gordon Ramsay is on, and an aspiring chef from Times Territory is in the running.

Ben Ebbrell, a 21-year old student from Brookmans Park, was last night (Monday) selected as a finalist on cookery show Market Kitchen.

He will now battle it out with two other finalists for the chance to present his own recipe on the programme, as well as spend a day cooking at Rick Stein's seafood school in Cornwall.

"It's really surreal. It's going to be a great experience and there's lots to take on board," said Ben, a former Chancellor's student.

"Hopefully my presenting and cooking skills will pull through."

The winner will be revealed during Friday's episode.

Market Kitchen is on UKTV Food, Monday to Friday from 7pm.
