Gordon Ramsay calls the challenges on his new show ‘a f***ing nightmare’

WITH seven Michelin stars to his name, you’d think there was no recipe too complex for Gordon Ramsey.

But he has admitted the challenges on his new cooking show Next Level Chef would have him stumped.

Launching the ITV series, he said: “I’d find this a f****g nightmare. I got taught by some of the best chefs on the planet.

And if you didn’t master what they gave you to do, you were out.

“Next Level Chef is about seeing how they pivot quickly across 45 minutes with ingredients they may have never cooked before.”

The show, which begins on January 11 at 9pm, involves hopefuls trying to move from a basement to the top floor by inventing dishes from a set of random food.

Home cooks, social media stars and professional chefs will compete to win a £100,000 prize and 12-month mentorship.

Gordon said: “The inclusion of social media stars is something a lot of top chefs are very sniffy about but they are some of the most talented, gifted chefs.”

Nyesha Arrington, who co-hosts, added: “It is really a first-of-its-kind show.”
