I just caught bits and pieces over twitter, and so hadn't realised that you won the whole thing!! OMG, congratulations! That's really fantastic! What did you make that impressed them so much?
From the bag I used raspberries, mascarpone and a vanilla pod (there was also some celeriac, blue cheese, chicken and I forget what else).
I made american thick pancakes with whole raspberries plus I scraped out all the vanilla seeds out and beat them into some mascarpone along with icing sugar and a little double cream, to give just a little looseness.
Presentation was crap but Gregg did that phwoar type thing he does when he's happy and made a comment to the audience that my pancake might look thick and stodgy but that it was actually really fluffy and light and also something about the contrast of sharp berries against the sweet, vanilla cream. :) I don't remember wholly, it's a bit of a blur!
