Keeping a heater in the fridge to keep the temperature up is just one of the realities for a chef in the extreme conditions of Antarctica.
Paddy Rietveld who has that job is responsible for food preparation for our workforce at Scott Base.
He's there for a long stint, summer plus this winter. We catch up with him and talk about the challenges of cooking on ice.
