Colin Fassnidge

Join MKR superstar and Off The Grid favourite Colin Fassnidge as he cooks his crowd-pleasing Bad Boys — irresistibly crispy chicken thighs roasted over sourdough. A family favourite that’s taken over from traditional chicken bread, these quick and easy thighs come with perfect portion control and seriously addictive crispy skin (expect fights over the last piece!). Colin will also share his show-stopping pumpkin side. Packed with tips and his signature style, this demo is unmissable!

Manu Feildel

Superstar judge from MKR and charismatic French chef, Manu Feildel will show you how to cook beautiful NZ mussels in two very different ways. Manu takes on his Asian Style Mussels, admitting that while wife Clarissa is the family expert in Asian cuisine, this is his own creative (and very successful) interpretation — bold, delicious and far from traditional. He’ll then switch to classic French territory with his elegant Cassolettes de Moules au Pernod — Green Lip Mussel and Aniseed Pies — a rich, aromatic show-stopper. Full of warmth, humour and clever tips, this is one of Manu’s most fun and flavourful sessions. Don’t miss it!
