Local Limerick girl, Máiríde Bennis, who entered the Ben’s Beginners competition is one of the four finalists. Máiríde, who is excited to be in the final, is in with a chance to win a €5,000 cash prize for her family plus a €10,000 donation for her school to fund a healthy eating initiative.

Each finalist will be given the opportunity to cook their signature rice dish for Neven Maguire, who will then decide the winner.

The overall winner will also have their signature rice dish featured on the Today Show on December 2 next.
