It was a real delight to phone up our user scarlet_magpie and tell him he had won the Patak’s competition this month.

This member is a bloke from West Yorkshire who saw Dragons Den loved the whole concept of MyDish and joined up.  He said that he loves making his own Indian food and when he saw the competition he entered for fun – like all of us not really thinking he was in with a chance and then just forgot about it.

A couple of months later I called him up to tell he had had been chosen by the team at Patak’s – probably one of the nicest tasks I have had to do since setting up MyDish.

Scott from west Yorkshire

Scott of West Yorkshire (aka scarlet_magpie) said

“I was absolutely astounded (and still am) and over the moon – it’s turned me into a bit of a show-off!”   He was so chuffed that he made up his own recipe using Patak’s paste with pieces of chicken and the reduced veggie of the day from his local supermarket (being sugarsnap peas) and he said it all turned out fabulously.  Watch this space – we have asked Scott to do it again and take a photo!
