Matt Preston Marley Spoon Tanqueray to launch the ultimate dinner box to feed a party of six

Former MasterChef judge Matt Preston has created the ultimate dinner box to feed a party of six – complete with an extravagant three-course menu and matching cocktails.

The renowned Australian food critic has teamed up with meal kit delivery service Marley Spoon and gin brand Tanqueray to launch the first-of-its-kind box, featuring everything a host needs to throw a dining experience like no other.

Available in two menu variations – Korean and French, home cooks are provided with all the recipes and ingredients needed to make cooking a breeze.

‘I really do love the art of entertaining; there is something very special about taking the time and care to host your loved ones,’ Preston said.

‘Add a little magic to an evening with their nearest and dearest, from recipes I’ve created exclusively for this collaboration to exciting new twists on the gin and tonic.

‘I love entertaining guests at my home… it couldn’t be easier for Aussies to get together and enjoy great food and drinks in their own homes – and it’s even better if someone else has done the shopping for you.’

The meals in the Korean box include bao buns, beef fillet lettuce cups with kimchi and Ssamjang mayonnaise, two sides – roasted sweet potatoes with miso-almond butter and charred broccolini and chocolate-walnut torte for dessert.

While the French box comes complete with pissaladière tart, roasted Sommerlad chicken with ultimate duck fat potatoes, and chocolate mousse with mandarin for dessert.

The ingredients are locally sourced and pre-portioned so there’s zero food waste.
