Mat Follas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mat Follas was the winner of the BBC's MasterChef programme in 2009.[1][2]

Follas won MasterChef by beating Andy Oliver and Chris Gates in the grand final. His final winning dish consisted of a starter of trio of rabbit with nettles and pancetta crisps; a main of spider crab thermidor accompanied with mussels, foraged sea vegetables and a side of chips; and for dessert a creamy lavender and blackberry mousse with honeycomb and blackberry sauce.[3]

Following MasterChef, Follas opened his own restaurant later in 2009, 'The Wild Garlic' in Beaminster, Dorset.[4]
