It's the Sub 10 Minute Burger Challenge.
Today we have.
- Social media sensation, Lagomchef!

(people clapping)
- Martyn, how are you feeling?
- I'm good.
Pretty nervous to be fair.
I'm, I'll be all right, I'll be all right.
- So, we would like you to create the best burger that
you possibly can in under 10 minutes, as quick as you can.
You have the standard sorted burger ingredients
that we provided, but Martyn's also brought in three
ingredients from home that he can win as bonus ingredients.
- What have you brought in?
- [Martyn] Some donuts, a tray of donuts,
some bacon and some eggs.
- Fantastic, I am very excited for these, okay.
- You need the whole tray, or?
- We'll wait and see how it goes.
Maybe, maybe I can bribe you with one or two.
(people laughing)
(intense music playing)
- [Jamie] Next up to take on the gauntlet
of our 10 Minute Burger Challenge,
is Martyn Odell, better known as Lagomchef?
He is 36 years old and he comes from Essex,
but not the nice part.
Yep, his favourite dish is lasagna and he's known
for being a TikTok superstar fighting food waste
and wearing pyjamas that aren't actually pyjamas apparently.
Anyway, his unique skill is igniting chaos.
Honestly, be prepared, this is going to be chaos.
Anyway, back to us in the studio for the chaos.
- So in order to win your mystery ingredients, Martyn
you're gonna have to answer a series of questions.
Are you ready?
- Yeah, sort of.
- Question number one.
By signing up to your newsletter, we get to receive
an online recipe book.
- Is this a hashtag ad?
- Well for him apparently.
- Do I have a newsletter?
(people laughing)
- By signing up to your newsletter, we get to receive
an online recipe book with nine, zero waste recipes
to pick from, including vegan, veggie and meaty recipes.
But what is the one fishy recipe that's included?
(both judges gasping)
- Uh, God, I'm gonna go with something with salmon.
(whooshing sound)
- That's one of three.
- [Martyn] Yes. - Can you be more specific?
- I can't even remember.
Let's go, I'm gonna go with salmon with poached eggs
and broccoli.
(Judges mumbling)
- [Mike] The correct answer was spuds, salmon and eggs.
- Two out of three. - What are we gonna
give Martyn? - Two and three.
- I think we'll give that.
- I think we're gonna give you that one.
- Okay. - Yeah?
- Martyn, question.
(people cheering)
(Martyn laughing)
Martyn, question number two.
On your TikTok, you revealed how many potatoes
are wasted every day in the UK.
- Easy.
- [Mike] Can you remember that number?
Is it. - Absolute, absolutely.
- A, 4.1 million, B, 4.4 million,
or C, 4.7 million potatoes.
(Martyn clapping)
- 4.4.
- [Mike] Correct.
- Yes. - [Ben] That's a lot of spuds.
- That is a lot of spuds, all in here.
- [Ben] Right.
- Zero waste.
- Two out of two so far.
Martyn, can you get the third one?
Now, when you last came into the Sorted Studio to hang out
you and the food team picked up a load of snacks
to try from Tian Tian Market
but what was the first spicy snack that you tried?
- It was that stick.
I would not have a clue how to pronounce it
or even say what it is.
I'ma say meaty tongue.
- The correct answer is dragon tongue, which.
- [Ben] Dragon's a meat, I'd give it to him!
- I mean it would, it's a, it's meaty tongue,
so it's three out of three.
- Three out of three!
(audience applauding)
Right, let's take the ingredients,
get into the kitchen and cook up a burger.
(upbeat music playing)
- [Mike] Martyn, how are you feeling?
- Very excited.
- Okay, right.
(Jamie laughing)
Get ready to cook in 3, 2, 1, go.
- [Chorus] Go.
- Okay, so he is gone straight into the donut
and then straight into the streaky bacon.
Is this smoked or?
- I'm not sure.
- Okay, so talk us through the donuts
and how are you gonna use them?
- Okay, I'm gonna use the donuts as the, the bun.
The idea is working that idea of like a bit of sweetness,
a bit of cooked bacon.
Oh, yep, let's get this one, warm bacon.
A bit of cooked bacon, crispy, salty, sweet, lovely.
- [Jamie] Nice. - So.
- [Mike] What's your burger tekkers?
- In, so you blink.
- Wow, rustic.
- Yeah.
- Love that. - Keep it in a bit of salt.
There you go, lovely jubbly.
A bit of oil.
(people cheering)
There she is, yeah, right, now we relax.
Okay, what's next?
It's okay.
- You serve portions of bacon like I do and I love that.
- Yeah, there we go, this is great.
Right, so that's in, that's, that's doing its thing.
- [Jamie] Do you use utensils at all or do you just?
- No, no, use what God gave you.
That's what my mom told me.
Alright, you're gonna put a bit of onion in there.
So get this off.
- So what are you looking for from the onion?
Whereabouts are you gonna layer it?
How's that gonna make a difference?
- Okay, so this is gonna go fine.
- There's a chef in the house everyone.
(people cheering)
- Yeah. - Tekkers!
- I've never even used this knife before.
It gets very nerve-wracking when you use a fresh knife.
Oh stop looking at me whilst your-
(people cheering)
- Right, shuffle those over nice and hot.
- Onions in the pan on the burger, love it.
- There you go, right.
And then we're gonna dice this bit up
'cause this one's gonna go with a bit of wally for a sauce.
- Nice.
- [Martyn] Yeah, okay, he's gonna go in here.
- [Mike] So what's a wally?
- Pickles.
- [Jamie] How you're gonna get the pickles out?
(people cheering)
- Finger them.
- [Ben] So many people have fingered that jar.
- You gotta have a shot.
- [Chorus] Yeah!
- Let's get all my buns.
Oh, they're good.
Okay, we're under control.
Good to go in mayonnaise.
- [Kush] Don't put your fingers in it.
(people laughing)
- Spoon, here we go.
Only use everything.
- Yes, yes, yes.
- Yes, yes everything. - Yes.
- [Ben] That's burger sauce right?
- [Martyn] Yeah.
- [Jamie] Excellent.
- Eat that.
(people laughing)
- Right, okay.
- What else needs to go?
A little bit of lettuce, yeah.
He's good, lay it out, he's ready to go in.
- [Jamie] Excellent.
- What'd you look for in a burger?
What's it gotta do?
Texture, flavour.
(people laughing)
- Imagine if I choked in that.
- Kush couldn't just not be trusted.
- [Mike] He's such a loose cannon.
- Okay, there's no lids, so that's gonna go on there.
Right, get a beer in there, you know?
- Yeah.
(Jamie gasping)
- There we go, get.
- [Ben] The eggs. - [Jamie] Oh, eggs.
- Yeah, I got them, mate.
- [Mike] So eggs in with the bacon.
- We're just gonna do a little fried egg
'cause I've got the donut,
I'm thinking the egg will poke through the hole.
- This is great, this is great.
- Love this.
- I get really soft.
- [Kush] Can I have a doughnut please.
- I should have cut these before, I didn't really plan this.
- [Chorus] Oh, no, no, oh, no, no, no!
- [Mike] Go, go, your fine, you've got time.
- They can go in the burger.
- Don't panic.
- [Mike] Yes.
(intense music playing)
(people laughing)
- Oh, oh.
- Toast them in the pan.
- No, it's okay.
Don't panic.
They said don't panic.
Don't panic, alright.
Kush, have a taste, see if it's seasoned.
See if it's seasoned.
- What's happening?
- [Mike] This has gone haywire.
- [Jamie] What's happening?
- Okay, let's warm this bun up.
How do you cut them?
Okay, here we go again.
- Yes, yes, nice, nice.
- There wasn't enough seasoning.
(group laughing)
And it didn't like the onions.
The onions didn't work, did they?
No.
(group laughing)
- You've got this Martyn, come on mate.
- Zero waste.
(group laughing)
- [Mike] Yeah, there we go, there we go.
- It's coming together, coming together.
- It's gonna be perfect timing.
(group laughing)
- [Mike] Right, here we go, here we go.
- [Ben] Take two, take two.
- So, I learned from my mistakes.
I'm not gonna cut the bun.
- [Mike] Yes.
- Oh yes, now we're talking.
(group gasping)
(group shouting)
- I should have just been vegan.
This would've been way easier.
(group laughing)
(intense music playing)
- [Jamie] This is incredible.
- I think this might taste insane.
(group shouting)
- [Chorus] No, no, no.
- [Martyn] Do we have time?
- [Kush] Over easy?
- [Mike] You have some time, yeah.
- [Kush] Put a lid on it.
Steam it?
Beer.
(group laughing)
(intense music playing)
- [Mike] Yes, yes!
- [Jamie] Wow, wow. - Wow.
- [Martyn] You're actually looking alright?
- Wow.
(intense music playing)
- Come on, come on, pan.
- [Mike] Yeah, you've got this,
you've got this, you've got this.
- Come on.
Oh, it's popped up, here we go.
- Some of that egg is cooked.
- Fantastic.
- [Kush] Martyn, cover it up with a donut, you'll be fine.
- [Mike] It's still clucking.
- I'm just gonna perch it down on the side,
just in that area.
- [Kush] Ring the bell, ring the bell,
ring the bell, ring the bell!
(bell ringing)
(people cheering)
- I need to lay down.
- [Mike] Fantastic job, mate.
- Why don't we get that into the sexies
and then we'll have a chat about it.
- I want to eat it.
- Yeah.
(easygoing music playing)
- Yes!
(people clapping)
- I mean, that is the hottest of messes in a delicious way.
How'd you feel now?
- I, I'm quite proud, I'm, I'm a bit confused.
- I'm loving it, it's got steak tartar vibes,
you know, with the, you know.
- The rawness of them.
(people laughing)
- I mean, I'm excited for it, I really am.
Do you wanna cut into it?
- I would love to.
- And we'll eat it and you can tell us
a little bit about your technique.
- And what, about cutting it?
(people laughing)
- [Jamie] I'll just have a look.
- [Mike] Okay.
I like that the, the whites.
-I like that your using a serrated knife as well.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
- [Mike] I like the whites. - [Martyn] Oh look, wow.
- [Mike] Cooked in the residual heat as well.
- Yeah, 'cause that's what I was aiming for.
- So you've let, you've let it rest.
- Exactly.
- One residual cooking temperature
is an important lesson in cooking, there you go.
Oh, do you want me to serve you?
- No, not at all, really.
Just eat it.
- I mean I've already tasted this so.
- [Mike] And you know it's fantastic.
- Absolutely.
- This is actually the second burger that you made,
isn't it? - Yeah.
- I suppose, yeah.
- Here we go, let me feed you.
- Oh, thank you.
(mellow music playing)
♪ Oh yeah ♪
- Do you think I could, I could have a bit of the lid?
- I've already got one at the bottom.
- What, is it an open sandwich then?
- It's a bit, yeah.
Use that to mop up the mess.
(people laughing)
I'm gonna go in.
- That is the most unreal mixture of sweet and savoury.
- It's actually really good.
- It is really good.
- I'm proud of, I mean, it looks awful.
(people laughing)
- It looks like the dirtiest burger, 3:00 AM.
- Holy crap.
- [Jamie] Yeah. - [Martyn] Yeah.
- [Jamie] Yeah.
- The burger sauce and the crispy cream combination.
- It's really good.
- That is something that I didn't think existed.
- [Jamie] Yeah. - And I'm glad it does.
- Sweet, sour, salty.
- Yeah. - Beefy egg.
- Egg, egg.
- Egg.
- Is there anything you would've changed
if you had your time again?
- Absolutely.
(people laughing)
Quite a lot of things.
If we're talking from a chef's background,
then we had a lot of things,
but flavour wise, I think lovely.
The bacon I think as well.
If I could separate that out, that would've been handy.
- Yeah.
- The egg would've nice, yeah, a bit nicely cooked
and the cheese to be melted.
- So most components?
- Most components, but yeah.
- But the sauce is great.
- Work in progress.
- Yeah, yeah.
- I mean when it all goes in your mouth
which is essentially the point, it's spectacular.
Martyn, we can confirm.
- Yes.
- That you passed the time test.
You did perform this in under 10 minutes.
- Fantastic.
- You've passed the taste test.
- Yeah.
- Because we have enjoyed it. - Very good.
- So the only question left is
what is the exact time that you.
- I feel it in my heart.
(group laughing)
- What are you gonna call it?
- I think it's a mouthful.
- It's a mouthful.
- Great, I love that. - Yeah.
- It's a mouthful.
- There's more than a mouthful, but you know.
- Yeah, little pun in there.
(people laughing)
- Well, Martyn Lagomchef's, It's a Mouthful,
came in at eight minutes and 34 seconds.
- Solids.
(group applauding)
I'm happy on that.
(group clapping)
- Do we have to divide that in two,
'cause you made two burgers or do we, I mean?
- Essentially you did make two burgers
and you ate as you went.
- Patches around taste test.
- We have to finish this before we leave.
- Yeah, okay.
- Food waste.
- Martyn, thank you so much for coming in.
That was incredible.
