The chef — making a pear frangipani pudding — also cracked a gag about long-distance calls he was said to have made to alleged lover Sarah Symonds, 38.
A girl from Dubai in the audience tasted his food — and Ramsay then said that he loved the way she said “delicious”.

He said: “I can see I’m going to be spending a lot of money on long-distance phone calls again.”
Later, during a book signing, he told one boy: “Don’t get a girlfriend. They take your money, your cars, your recipes, even your DVDs.”
Ramsay, 42, was at his Taste of Christmas event at East London’s ExCel centre.
As his wife Tana, 34, signed her own recipe books yards away, Ramsay joked he had been taught to cheat properly by Delia Smith’s How To Cheat cookbooks.
He also had a crack at rival Jamie Oliver’s diner Fifteen, which he said was the subject of one of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares show — before adding: “That was a joke, Jamie. Just stop eating and brush your teeth.”
