Come Dine With Me Season 35 Episode 11 Peterborough

Come Dine with Me season 35 episode 11 takes us to Peterborough where four new contestants are ready to showcase their culinary skills and wow each other with their hospitality. The show follows the format where each contestant gets a chance to host the dinner party at their home where they have to cook a three-course meal for their guests, including their rivals. The guests then rate the host's performance on a scale of one to ten, with the winner receiving a cash prize at the end of the week.

The first host of the week is Simon, a jolly 50-something-year-old who describes himself as a foodie. Simon's menu for the evening consists of his homemade vegetable soup, followed by slow-cooked beef in red wine sauce with dauphinoise potatoes and a medley of oven-roasted vegetables. The dessert is his signature lemon and lime cheesecake, which he's been practicing for weeks. Simon's guests are impressed with his soup, commenting on its depth of flavor and freshness. The beef was cooked to perfection and melted in their mouths. The dessert, however, was a little sour for their taste.

The second host of the week is Catherine, a middle-aged home cook who takes inspiration from her travels. Catherine's menu features chicken liver pate with homemade bread, slow-cooked lamb tagine, and an almond and orange blossom cake. Catherine's guests appreciate the rustic feel of her dining room, which reflects her eclectic style. They also enjoy the chicken liver pate, with one guest even stating it was the best he's ever had. However, the lamb was a bit tough and dry, and the cake was a little dry too.

Next up is Michael, a confident young professional with a passion for cooking. Michael's menu includes his take on a classic Caesar salad, a hearty beef bourguignon with carrots and onions, and a twist on a British classic, bread and butter pudding with a dollop of vanilla cream. Michael's guests are impressed with his culinary skills, with the beef bourguignon stealing the show. The bread and butter pudding was also a hit, and everyone agreed that Michael's take on it was delicious.

The final host of the week is Madalena, a Portuguese national who prides herself on her cooking heritage. Madalena's menu features a homemade sangria, followed by salt cod fritters with a side of hummus and a spicy tomato chutney. For the main course, Madalena presents a traditional Portuguese roast chicken with roasted potatoes and a creamy mushroom sauce. The dessert is a deliciously decadent chocolate torte with a hint of orange. Madalena's guests were impressed with her well-seasoned cod fritters, and the roast chicken was cooked to perfection. The chocolate torte was the perfect way to end the meal, with everyone commenting on its rich and indulgent taste.

At the end of the week, each contestant gets a chance to rate their competitors on their overall performance, hospitality, and culinary skills. The winner is revealed to be the contestant with the highest score and receives a cash prize of £1000.
