Three enthusiastic home cooks are pitted against each other as they try to make delicious dishes using the day's ingredient boxes. The first test is to create something from a box put together by Call the Midwife star Helen George. In the second challenge, James Martin selects the ingredients to go into three new boxes. The contestants have to choose between a chocolate box, a basic box and a meat box.
Based on the dishes from the second test, James Martin decides who triumphs and wins Cook of the Day!
