I'm curious if the expression 'as less as possible' is possible in BrE, or if Ramsey just made an error.

AmE would be 'as little as possible', and what he says is mind-gratingly ungrammatical to my AmE ear.

No, it's just him. It sounds no better to my ear than yours.
 
I would have asked him to re-shoot the scene.
 
Possibly a mini-stroke from all that salt he slung over everything....
