A SCHOOLBOY chef has revealed he wants to be the next Gordon Ramsay after cooking up a storm on social media.
Calyx Gray, 10, has become a TikTok sensation after roasting his mum Rhea's wacky ingredient requests while he makes family dinners.
One clip, which has racked up more than 125,000 views, shows the comedic kid poking fun at his mum's "weird diet" as he dices up sweet potato and courgette to add to spaghetti bolognese.
In the video (@cookingwithcalyx), the youngster joked: "And if you don’t like it, shove it up your…”
And social media users can't get enough of his cheeky sign-off.
One said: "I love Calyx’s sign off. Cracking young one."
Another wrote: "Savage with the shade thrown at your mum."
Meanwhile, a third added: "The commentary on this is on point. Hilarious."
Others have even compared him to his celeb idol Gordon Ramsay – urging the sweary telly chef to give his videos a watch.
Calyx, from Falkirk, told the Scottish Sun Online: "It's nice that people are actually watching it.I want to make sure that everybody enjoys cooking.

"They don't have to love it more than anything – I just think it's a good skill to have. I just hope to be the next Gordon Ramsay."
Proud mum Rhea said the incredible reaction to the cooking clip left her 10-year-old son "shaking".
The mum of two, 33, revealed: "It was just crazy. Before he went to bed he had sent voice notes to everyone in the family saying 'My video has got 500 views, I'm so excited, I can't believe it'.
"Then he got up for school the next morning and it had 2,000. By dinnertime he had a video on saying thank you so much, there was 50,000 views, he had 200 followers at this point.
"That was the point where he couldn't speak, he was speechless, he was shaking.
"The support from people has been overwhelming. People were offering to send him things from Amazon, asking for his wishlist. It's just madness.
"Just from one video. It's so nice, people are so happy to see him doing well."
And taking the roasting well, she added: "I wasn't aware I was on a special diet, but Calyx seems to think I was.
"I just kind of fancied some sweet potato with my bolognese for something different.
