Masterchef - off we go again!

[Roussette]

Here we are!

That chicken dish looks nice

I was just thinking that looked a bit small delicate for rough, tough naval types

half a pound is half a pound, well done!

In the summer i help lead a catering team that cooks for teens on an outdoor pursuits camp.
We have a kitchen in a tent with isues like wonky cookers, gas bottlesthat need changing and a million complicating factors.
We churn out 3 meals a day for a week and the secret is keep it simple.
We do curry, roast dinner, home made pizza, toad in the hole.
We have to comply with food hygiene regs and our team is all volunteers.
Greg and JT would be boggled.

Thanks Roussette

What's a pinenut and herb breadcrumb singular?!

Sounds like a sensible simple route hob!

hobnobs Wow!

OK... I'm going over to new thread !

So is it red team for the cook off?

It gets a bit hairy using industrial fryers in a tent at time 😝
And eggy bread for a hundred is fun

Bleedin' heck, that's a burnt looking pudding there!

Should have gone stodgier.

Bugger! Don't agree with that

Noooooooooooooooo!

Ooh, tough call

Wanted Liz to go, not Jen. Bugger.

Why do they refer to one candidate as "mum of four?"
Is that what identifies her as a person? Hate it!!!!

I had issues with the 'mum of four' tag too but I think it is because all the others are defined by their 'career' - Annie the actor, Liz the company director, Jen the mortgage advisor. All equally unnecessary when we want to know how good they are at cooking but I guess TV crews want us to try and identify with each candidate.

It's worse when they mention their age!

'Mad bugger, originalmavis, is making a fillet of digits a la cod, served with pomme frites and a side order if bakk-ed beenz (meenz Heinz)' as we say in our house.

Episode 22 with the final 5 cooking for actors with the whacky chef is on iPlayer; came on to see if anyone had commented on it - when was it broadcast??

Of course we've commented :) New thread here

It was on Monday I think.

Ah, thanks Soup

@fourquenelles We're missing you on the new MC thread!
