Brin Pirathapan talks to Kitty Corrigan

MasterChef 2024 winner Brin Pirathapan blends British seasonal produce with tastes and techniques inspired by his Sri Lankan heritage, building flavour from the ground up in a live demo turning ordinary ingredients into something spectacular.

As the winner of “the best final in 20 years” according to judge John Torode, expect a more-than-entertaining afternoon where staple ingredients become meals packing some serious punch.

Pirathapan’s new cookbook, Elevate: Everyday Ingredients, Incredible Flavours is all about enriching the day to day. Think sticky pork rice bowls, warming curries, zingy salads and bold takes on classic desserts, with practical tips and pro techniques, so you can learn not just how to best cook a fish, but how to fillet it too. He talks to writer and editor Kitty Corrigan.
