Professional MasterChef 24 Thread 2 - Floppy hair, floppy beignets, celery-ack and snail pie!

[Sunbird24]

Here we are Chuffians!

Who were all those people? Have I missed a week?

I've just started watching tonight's episode. Why are Monica & gregg tasting Marcus's food but Marcus & gregg don't taste Monica's? They didn't last week either?

Haha Esma
Should I admit to being sacked from my first job in a kitchen?
I cooked the wrong puddings from a menu for a different day

Not helped by the fact I drained the chip fryer, cleaned it and poured the still hot oil back in forgetting to shut the flu. The owner went nuts!

It's a bugger to get the floor completely oil free and safe to walk on.

I’m just signing in because I missed the beginning of this series but I’ve caught up too much and I’m now an episode ahead.

I'm off, it's all the US shitshow.

I was crying at the olive in the chocolate mousse. Tv gold.

Wow, that was a bit of a car crash!
Love Mons raviolo (and mushrooms), jealous of Marcus's stuffed courgette flowers, I can never get mine at the right stage.

The smash it York guy just smashed it all wrong.

The first lad needs to be good to keep up with his ego, half cooked spuds won't cut it with Marcus and Mon.

Gail's food looks really different and interesting. Was it her cling film melting or the plastic box (or both)?

The SA woman was messy and slapdash, which never seems to bode well for a chef.

I used to run a commercial kitchen and I can't tell you how many times oil ended up all over the floor when the fryers were cleaned. I never sacked anyone over it - I viewed it as a learning curve because most people only did it once! 😂 Nightmare to clean though...

Well, the chef at his restaurant left and he HAD to step in, it’s not like he could have gone and hired another chef…

I've just caught up with tonight's episode. The right ones went through but I did like Kirsty. Her food was not good enough though and I didn't like her voice! The skills tests are silly, Marcus and Mon can do a good job in 20 minutes because they know what they have to cook. Could be 20 takes too 🎬

Think this is what happened to Steve in the skills test…

Just caught up - I’m sure they would have served plastic if only the chef had noticed the spatula melting.

Oops, pic didn’t upload properly!

Caught up now so ready for tonight. I know Steve had a mare but none of them were great. Hoping for better things tonight.

Oh god please let them not be as bad

Half of me wants them to be terrible for the lols, the other half wants competence in the kitchen, thank you very much.

I dont mind a bit of daftness but it was off the charts Tuesday. As I said to mam this is not the 'me' version, it's the 'professional' version. They are supposed to be competent already. There was a lot of not competentness going on Tuesday.

Evening. Just caught up on Tuesdays, raw potato was a new one. Made a change from lamb.

I hate aubergine unless it's deep fried

What ho! Evening all

Ritchie kinda even looks like Rich from 5!!

Gregg stating the bleeding obvious again,

Aubergine. No.

I love aubergine.

Don't like aubergine myself. Too soft

Ignorant question but what is miso? Is it a yeast? I know I can Google but I can't be arsed
