Sleb MasterChef 2024 #2 - who are all these people?

[GrouchyKiwi]

Lamb being cooked properly. Fondant potatoes that aren't hard as a rock. What a strange year.

Thread one Sleb MasterChef 2024: raw lamb and burnt caramel, no doubt | Mumsnet

Johnny Cakes make me think of The Sopranos when Vito ends up living in New Hampshire.

Hello, bit late but tasks looking good so far.

Who exactly does Gregg appeal to? His career is a bigger mystery than the Mary Celeste.

‘Troofy’? They’re called ‘trofie’ FGS Jonty

Ainsley did a low fat cookery book back in the day. The recipes were fab with his use of spices and I wish I'd never got rid of it. There was a fab chilli made with coffee and a kebab with lean lamb steaks.

Gregg must have the dirt on someone to keep his job

Fritters are one of the few things that bananas are good for. Revolting things.

He definitely knows where the bodies are buried.

Ah just switched on and was wondering what troophy was so thanks👍

Tamars hair it’s amazing

I bet Vimto could correct Jonty’s pronunciation!

🤣

<stares at the recipe in Kiwi> There had better be vinegar and cornflour in those meringues or it's not a pavlova.

H 🙄

I'm glad I'm not the only one who talks to food while cooking it.

That book seems to be around secondhand, Dogs, a few cheap copies if you search a bit,

Banana fritters 🙌🙌

H joking about Vito's balls, Ainsley wiping the floury handprints off Craig's bum. If Harry refers to Gregg as the Speaking Cock then we know they're all secret Mumsnetters.

They all look good

Harry was NOT going home because of raw chicken.

V politically correct. Chicken Keev.

How on earth are you supposed to make courgette fries that aren't soggy? Those things are like 95% water.

Craig's dish looks good. Love bao.

Thanks @Halsall ! I think I need to buy it again. His BBQ Bible was a good book too.

Craig straight though?

'Your tortillas are cracking.'

That's high praise in Lancashire.
