Te Arawa Tangata Marae Masterchef is to be held at Takahe Marae
in Rotorua this weekend.
A competition to see the best are in the kitchen,
this is the second event since it began last year
and Taheke Marae came out as the winners.
It's about coming together to celebrate each other,
our culture and everything that the marae is all about;
the cooking, the hunting and fishing.
The cooking will be done on the marae forecourt.
The cooking will be done on barbeques,
as well other activities will take place here in front of the marae,
not a Master Chef kitchen.
While the marquees are going up,
the hunters have gone into the forests
and others have gone fishing,
but Sunday is the big day when all will be revealed.
Right thru to Sunday, they will all come together,
some will be weighing in their catch and others will begin cooking.
The call goes out to one and all - the marae gates are wide open
so come one and all and join the eating.
No doubt it will be a big challenge for the judges.
The judges know what to look for.
They are the experts.
Yes, my mouth is already watering with the thought of all that food.
All the best to those who take part,
the winners and those who aren't so lucky.
Hinerangi Goodman, Te Karere.
