Episode 11 - S13.E11

In the final heat of the competition, four professional chefs from around the country arrive at the MasterChef kitchen ready to put their reputations on the line. Once more, two tough challenges will determine which two progress to the quarter-final and which two will go home.

Monica Galetti sets tonight’s first skills test, asking two chefs to fillet and cook a John Dory to be served with a vibrant green parsley sauce and a garlic cream. The other two chefs take on a test set by Marcus, to prepare poached figs with honeycomb and flavoured cream.

Then the four chefs have a chance to show the judges what they are all about, as they serve up their two-course signature dishes. They have one hour and 25 minutes to prepare a main and a dessert that highlight their personal style, and they will need to make an impression if they are to make it through to the quarter-final.
