1
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,520
From across the UK...
2
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,480
..32 up-and-coming chefs...
3
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:15,000
..are putting their reputations
on the line
4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,040
in a battle to become
professional MasterChef champion.
5
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,640
Tonight, the next four hopefuls
compete to impress...
6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,000
..MasterChef judge Gregg Wallace,
7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,400
renowned chef Monica Galetti...
8
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,760
..and culinary legend...
9
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,040
..Marcus Wareing.
10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,600
This is the time I should go for it,
11
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,080
and I can feel it in my bones that I
have to do it and I can do it.
12
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:46,080
I think I always look
to make my children proud.
13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,280
I do everything for them.
14
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,680
I'm going to win it for them.
15
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,920
One thing I have noticed
is that I'm probably the oldest,
16
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,640
so I think experience
might play into that,
17
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,040
so hopefully that will
give me the edge.
18
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,360
The other chefs, they look
like they know what they're doing,
19
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:00,520
but I think I might do better.
20
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,040
The competition is on.
21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,040
Time to uncover a new culinary
superstar.
22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,120
Welcome back.
23
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:16,720
We have four brand-new chefs
to meet.
24
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:17,960
First, the Skills Test.
25
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:19,920
Two of them are going to do
your Skills Test, Marcus.
26
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,520
Monica, you're kicking off.
27
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:22,800
What's your Skills Test, please?
28
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,640
I'm going to get our chefs
to make us popcorn clams,
29
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,520
a mussel fritter served
with a Bloody Mary mayonnaise.
30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:30,720
Quite a few skills.
31
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,800
Clam cookery, mussel cookery,
32
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,040
making a mayonnaise.
33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,280
So I'm asking our chefs to make
two types of batter.
34
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,120
We're doing popcorn clams. Right.
35
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,800
So a buttermilk batter.
36
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,520
Like you would, you know
chicken popcorn.
37
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,000
But I'm using clams.
38
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,360
The fritter's like a pancake mix.
Oh.
39
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,040
20 minutes, two lots of shellfish
and the mayonnaise.
40
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,520
Show us how it's done.
41
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,160
Right, first things first.
42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,000
I'm going to get the shellfish
cooked off.
43
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,640
Sweat off the shallots
and the garlic
44
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,240
just to impart some flavour.
45
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,000
Then I'm going in with the clams.
46
00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:13,440
Hot pan is the key to everything.
47
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:14,840
They need to cook quickly.
48
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,840
If they're too cooked,
it's going to be tough,
49
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,480
it's rubbery, we don't want that.
50
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,000
What is it that you like
about clams?
51
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,360
I love clams. Back when I used to
live in New Zealand,
52
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:23,880
I used to go with my friends
53
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,840
and literally sit on the beach
as the tide was going out
54
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,320
and just dig into the sand
and get handfuls of them.
55
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,160
I'm using vodka instead of wine here
56
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,480
because I want to reduce it down,
57
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,560
and I'm going to add
that to my mayonnaise.
58
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,920
In go the mussels.
59
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:44,160
Can you cook the clams
and the mussels at the same time?
60
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,360
Yes, you can, but clams you find
the shells are much thicker,
61
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,280
so they will take a bit
longer to steam.
62
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,800
I think that's great -
got yourself a big hit
63
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,480
not only of vodka, but also of
the shellfish as well.
64
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,520
Of course, the vodka in with
the shellfish
65
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,480
because it's vodka that makes up
the Bloody Mary mayonnaise.
66
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,840
So there's not a lot there
of the cooking liquor.
67
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,800
That is going to be so strong.
68
00:03:06,920 --> 00:03:09,920
I want to make sure I pick
out the best of my clams
69
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:11,520
and, of course, the mussels.
70
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,320
So the next thing I'm doing, guys,
is the batter for the popcorn clam.
71
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,160
I'm going to season it
with some paprika.
72
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,040
And I'm using buttermilk.
73
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,280
It makes a really thick batter.
74
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,480
It'll be interesting to see
75
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,440
whether or not they can actually
think of the two different batters.
76
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,280
The next batter is for the fritter.
77
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,320
So it's almost like a pancake mix,
78
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,600
but we want it nice and fluffy.
79
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,680
I've got the mussels which will go
into the batter.
80
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,360
So, guys, I want to make
the mayonnaise.
81
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,720
So in the bowl I've got
the reduction
82
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,160
of the shellfish with vodka.
83
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,040
I've got two yolks, a bit of mustard
and a bit of tomato paste to start.
84
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,560
I think making a mayonnaise,
all our chefs should know.
85
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:09,920
There's no machine.
86
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,160
So we are going to have to see
a little bit of skill on show.
87
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,800
So Bloody Mary I think a little bit
of vodka, heat, alcohol,
88
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,240
the sweetness of tomato,
89
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,280
the proper pepperiness of the
Worcester sauce -
90
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:23,160
they're the flavours I imagine.
91
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,720
I want it quite thick.
92
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,000
I'm going to finish seasoning
it with Worcestershire sauce
93
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,240
and some Tabasco. Yes. OK?
94
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,120
That's our mayonnaise done.
95
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,560
So I'm going to now cook
my fritters.
96
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,720
So just a dollop in the pan.
97
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,440
OK, the clams in.
98
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,280
So deep frying.
99
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:49,960
And of course pan frying as well.
100
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,760
Yes. Mate, loads of skills.
101
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,560
So I'm just moving them around
so they don't stick to the side.
102
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,160
Just floating up.
103
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,920
Have a little look at these.
104
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,240
So you see they're slowly
puffing up.
105
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,400
Just want it crispy and crunchy.
106
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,760
Beautiful. There you go.
107
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,480
The little clams on the side here.
108
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:13,840
Oh, get out of here.
109
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:15,640
I love the way they've puffed up.
Great.
110
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,800
And there we have it.
111
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,080
Popcorn clams, mussel fritter
112
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,560
and a Bloody Mary mayonnaise
to go with it.
113
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,040
Beautiful, beautiful.
114
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,760
It looks great,
115
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,080
but it's full of skill.
116
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:35,840
Right, we've seen you do it.
117
00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:37,640
Now it's the chefs' turn. You ready?
118
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:38,880
I'm so ready.
119
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,400
Marcus, you are going to watch
from the back room on the monitor.
120
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,520
And, of course, you'll come back
here for the tastings. All right?
121
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:44,840
See you in a bit.
122
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,320
Here we go, first contestant in.
123
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,040
Facing Monica's Skills Test
124
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,440
is 29-year-old Beth,
125
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,040
a senior sous-chef
126
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,480
at the UK's longest retained
127
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,320
Michelin-starred hotel
restaurant in Rutland.
128
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,280
I've been here
eight and a half years now,
129
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:10,000
and the reason I've probably stayed
in this job for such a long time
130
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000
is the beauty of what's around us.
131
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,120
The game here in Rutland is probably
the best in the country.
132
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,840
Also, we have a kitchen garden.
133
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,080
I could never not be a chef,
134
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,800
and creating something
out of nothing
135
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,680
is the best part of the job.
136
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,800
Skills Test.
137
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,560
I've done most things.
138
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,720
When I get told, "Go make this,"
139
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,280
I overthink it
and then panic about it,
140
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:36,760
but I'll just go for it.
141
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,280
Very warm welcome
to professional MasterChef.
142
00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:45,160
This is a Skills Test set by Monica.
143
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,440
No pressure, then! Gosh.
144
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,200
Beth, I would like you
to make us popcorn clams
145
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,400
with a mussel fritter
146
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,840
and a Bloody Mary mayonnaise.
147
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:59,400
The smile just slightly
disappeared there.
148
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,840
Beth, 20 minutes.
149
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,160
Good luck. OK, thank you.
150
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,880
So, Beth, you're starting
with your mayonnaise. Yes.
151
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,880
Out of interest,
152
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,360
do you sip the odd Bloody Mary?
153
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,840
I'm not a Bloody Mary fan.
154
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,640
I'm more of a Porn Star Martini.
155
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,200
It's a good start,
getting the mayonnaise done.
156
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,280
That will give her the opportunity
to think about the rest of the dish.
157
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,400
How long ago did you first learn
to make mayonnaise, do you think?
158
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,880
Oh, back in college,
159
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,680
so that'd be 15 years ago now,
160
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800
but it's been a while since
I've made it by hand.
161
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,640
Hopefully it doesn't split out.
162
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,320
A lot of oil in that mayonnaise.
163
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,120
So why are you a chef, Beth? Of all
the things you could have done.
164
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,400
My mum's a big food TV fan.
165
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,000
She can't cook,
but she's a she's a fan of food.
166
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,440
Saw the passion and the drive
of chefs on TV
167
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,120
and I wanted a piece of that
168
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,800
and I just fell in love
with food, really.
169
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,440
Put a little bit of vodka in that.
170
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,080
If you want it to cook quicker
put a lid on.
171
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,920
There you go, lid's on. Good.
172
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,360
What's she doing?
173
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,680
Don't wash them off.
174
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,600
She's basically just washed
all the flavour away,
175
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:24,680
which is such a shame.
176
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,000
So you've cooked your mussels...
Yep.
177
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,240
..and now you're cooling them down
in water?
178
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,560
Er, yeah.
179
00:08:33,560 --> 00:08:34,640
Not good.
180
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,240
Just over halfway, Beth.
181
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:39,960
I'm going to make both my batters
182
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,520
and then get them fried off.
183
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,840
And that batter, is that the fritter
or the popcorn one?
184
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,200
That's the fritter.
185
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,000
The popcorn one I'm going to use
with the buttermilk in.
186
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,640
Shaky hands.
187
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,200
She's got water in the clams,
and it's absolutely ridiculous.
188
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:07,320
You've got eight minutes left.
189
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,480
I'm going to make this popcorn
a bit thicker
190
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,520
than I would the fritter batter.
191
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,160
For the clams? Yes.
192
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,240
She's moving the clams around
to get a nice even colour.
193
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,680
Beth, it's just your mussel fritters
left to do, yes? Yeah.
194
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,280
OK, so she's putting both
in the deep fat fryer.
195
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,760
Three minutes left, Beth.
I think I'll be all right.
196
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,240
So nervous about what this
would be today.
197
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:50,920
I've been practising everything.
198
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,960
You can hear them spitting.
199
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,200
You can hear all of the water
coming out into that fryer.
200
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,760
You've got 30 seconds.
201
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,680
Let's get them on a plate, please.
202
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,760
All done? Yes.
203
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,480
In time, well done. Thank you.
204
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,080
I bet you're glad you got that
over and done with.
205
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,440
Yeah, I can breathe now.
206
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,880
Beth, the cooking of the
seafood, great.
207
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,560
I like that you added a bit
of the vodka to it.
208
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:40,200
However, you then dumped
everything under cold water.
209
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,400
Just washed all those beautiful
flavours that you had in there
210
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,480
and let them sit in the water.
211
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,320
The popcorn batter you can see
is holding.
212
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,960
The batter for the fritter,
because the mussels were so wet,
213
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,680
it's not held and the batter
214
00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:57,640
just sort of flaked off
in the deep fat fryer.
215
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,520
You made the batters quite well.
216
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,520
It's just you've cooked them
differently than we expected.
217
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,280
You've put them both into the deep
fat fryer,
218
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,000
making them incredibly similar.
219
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,200
You've given us a mayonnaise,
it could be thicker.
220
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,160
Bottle of oil, far too much.
221
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,080
It could have a little bit more
flavour of the Bloody Mary.
222
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,120
But you've got good
shellfish cookery.
223
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,520
You put the vodka in,
the lid on top, which was great.
224
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,880
Beth, thank you very much.
Off you go.
225
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,200
I made a silly mistake washing
the mussels with water.
226
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,880
I don't know why I did that.
227
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,160
I've never done that before.
228
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,880
It's nearly there,
but she didn't quite get it.
229
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200
I want to see better from Beth
in the next round.
230
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:43,960
Hello, Chefs.
231
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,760
Next up is 34-year-old Rohit.
232
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,840
Born in New Delhi, India,
233
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,560
he's now a sous-chef
in an Italian restaurant
234
00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:54,120
at a private members' club
in London.
235
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,720
Life as a chef is amazing,
236
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,920
because for me,
it's like a fun park.
237
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,800
There's different rides, you just
get along and you just enjoy it.
238
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,320
So for me, my style, I'll say,
is mostly worldwide.
239
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,800
If I don't do Indian food, I'll
definitely do something Italian.
240
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,640
But apart from that,
I love French cuisine,
241
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,160
I love Japanese, I love Mexican.
242
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,720
There is no limit.
243
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,560
My strengths lie in all
the sections you can say,
244
00:12:21,560 --> 00:12:24,480
like meat, fish, even vegetables,
245
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,320
but I always stay humble.
246
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,360
Service.
247
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,680
Rohit, welcome.
248
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:33,360
20 minutes, good luck.
249
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,800
Thank you, Chef.
250
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,480
Rohit, where does your love
for food come from?
251
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:48,040
I've been cooking along with my
mother from the age of six.
252
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,720
So you were brought up
with foods of India?
253
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,240
Yes.
254
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,080
And is that the style of food
that you do now?
255
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,800
Uh, not really, because mostly
I've worked in Italian kitchens.
256
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,360
Need to get a lid on them.
257
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,720
See, by not putting a lid
on the shellfish,
258
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,160
and what's happening is
they're opening so slowly
259
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,960
you end up overcooking them.
260
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,560
So he's making his mayonnaise.
261
00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:20,960
He needs to whisk those egg yolks
a little bit more.
262
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,120
Little bit of tabasco.
263
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:30,920
Worcestershire sauce.
264
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,840
So he's putting all the right
ingredients in.
265
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,000
Neat vodka into the mayonnaise,
a bit heavy, bit sharp,
266
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,120
bit too strong personally.
267
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,240
You don't want the mayonnaise
to taste of vodka.
268
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,000
Can I ask you what made
you apply for MasterChef?
269
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,200
To show people like the decision
I made ten years ago wasn't wrong.
270
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,680
Because I came here to finish
my engineering in 2012.
271
00:13:51,680 --> 00:13:53,880
And then I changed my profession,
272
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,800
and my parents were totally
against it.
273
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,560
So why the change of career
274
00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,760
if you spent so long studying
engineering?
275
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,040
Because I always wanted
to be a chef.
276
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,760
Mayonnaise, there you go.
277
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,640
It certainly looks too wet to me.
278
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,320
We've got batters to make,
we've got a fritter to fry.
279
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,440
I'm making a popcorn batter first
280
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,280
and then I'm making a tempura
batter - fritter batter, sorry.
281
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,120
That batter looks a little bit
on the thin side.
282
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,800
What are you thinking
for your mussel fritter?
283
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,160
For my mussel fritter,
I'm going to use the plain flour.
284
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,240
I'm going to use the baking powder
and the buttermilk.
285
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,920
Is he getting confused
with his batters?
286
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,640
His popcorn and his fritter.
287
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,040
You've got five minutes left.
Yes, Chef.
288
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,120
They're the clams, right?
289
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,280
Or are they the mussels?
290
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,840
Mussels. They're the mussels, right.
291
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,400
Mussels in the popcorn batter.
292
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:46,720
Clams in the fritter.
293
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,560
He's got all the shellfish
mixed up here.
294
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,960
Rohit, you've got three minutes,
295
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,760
so you're really going
to have to move it now.
296
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,400
That's not hot enough,
don't put that in, don't put it in.
297
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,760
Don't put it in.
298
00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:59,840
He's got the mussels in the fryer.
299
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,000
You've got a minute and a half.
Yes, Chef.
300
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,560
There we go.
301
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,040
They're starting to pop up
a little bit, I think.
302
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,600
You're going to have to be quick.
303
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,800
You are running out of time
very quickly. Yes, Chef.
304
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:22,800
OK.
305
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,720
All done? Yes, Chef.
306
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,040
Just in time.
307
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,800
I'm glad I put something
on the plate.
308
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,000
That was a bit of a tough watch
back there.
309
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,840
We got there in the end, though.
310
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,360
So, Rohit, I think you got
a bit confused
311
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,400
with the types of batters
that were needed.
312
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,080
I wanted the popcorn batter
to be quite crispy
313
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,440
with the buttermilk
314
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,080
and I think you've used
that for the fritter.
315
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,440
We wanted popcorn clams.
316
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,720
We've got popcorn mussels.
317
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,320
We wanted a mussel fritter.
318
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,080
We've got a clam fritter.
319
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,560
The popcorn batter here
320
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,240
is not crispy at all.
321
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,200
It's not even cooked.
322
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,160
And then we've got a fritter here
that went into cold oil,
323
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:18,480
so it's greasy.
324
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,960
I'm so sorry.
325
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,640
When you're cooking your shellfish,
326
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,320
you need to make sure you steam them
very quickly, get them out.
327
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,520
You just left them cooking there
and cooking there and cooking there.
328
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,840
They are like really chewy
little bullets.
329
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,680
The quality of your mayonnaise,
you can see, is too liquid.
330
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:38,120
Um, it's actually too strong
with the vodka.
331
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,960
It's not enjoyable.
332
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,760
We will see you in the next round.
333
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,520
Thank you very much indeed.
Thank you, Chefs.
334
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,160
Right, he's got a point to prove,
right?
335
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,360
Mm. Absolutely.
336
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,800
I just mixed up everything.
337
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,200
And it was a big mix-up,
338
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,800
and...would have been
definitely better.
339
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:04,680
It's your turn now, Marcus.
340
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,960
What's the Skills Test?
341
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,880
You have a lot of ingredients
on there.
342
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,200
I'm going to ask our chefs
to make a cheeseburger.
343
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,160
I've got a selection of meats
344
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,080
for our chefs to choose
for their patty.
345
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,760
I've got pork, beef
and chorizo sausage.
346
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,040
They've got a tomato relish to cook.
347
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,480
And, of course, the most important
thing is the mincing of the meat
348
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,160
itself, combining it.
349
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,640
We've got a selection of different
seasonings here from tomato paste.
350
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,560
We've got an egg,
we've got onions, paprika.
351
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,320
Interestingly, they can be as
artistic, creative as they want.
352
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,960
It's entirely up to them.
353
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,440
But we want a beautiful burger.
354
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,040
Right. 20 minutes,
world-class burger. Marcus.
355
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,200
I'm using the pork because this is
one of my favourite burgers.
356
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,680
I can't remember
ever having a pork burger.
357
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,440
I'm also using chorizo as well.
358
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,160
Chorizo and the pork going
together at the same time,
359
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,000
so it's naturally mixing. Yeah.
360
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,520
So I'm also going to just drop
it through again.
361
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,280
Why? If it's not minced fine enough,
362
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,280
and depending how much ingredients
they're going to add to it,
363
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,080
the burger will just break up.
364
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,400
So there we have it.
365
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,600
That's our mince, nice and fine.
366
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,040
Right, I have got some paprika,
367
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,240
a little bit of ketchup
in there too.
368
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:20,360
Mm.
369
00:18:20,360 --> 00:18:23,400
Also a little bit of
Worcestershire sauce.
370
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,040
But no hard and fast rules.
371
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,440
They put in whatever they want.
372
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,280
This is about chefs' imagination
373
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,240
with the beautiful ingredients.
I'm giving them.
374
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,560
A little bit of egg...
375
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,320
..and of course some breadcrumbs.
376
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,120
Tell me, please, what the
breadcrumbs do for the mix.
377
00:18:38,120 --> 00:18:39,680
Soaks up all the delicious fat.
378
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,520
So I'm just going to mix it in.
379
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,520
Just get my hand in there.
380
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:47,760
That's it.
381
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,240
It's so important to form a ball,
almost like a dough.
382
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,640
And just by using his hands,
383
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,240
he knows that it's going
to hold together.
384
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,560
To make a good burger
or a good patty,
385
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,920
you want it to be nice and firm.
386
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:03,280
Nothing worse than a burger
hanging out of the bun,
387
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:04,480
flopping everywhere.
388
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,320
OK, burger's on.
389
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,640
So, tomato relish.
390
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,760
I'm looking for a nice zingy tomato
flavour, but also sweet.
391
00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:19,800
Onions into our pan.
392
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,600
So you get your tomatoes,
you get your onions in there,
393
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:26,920
nice and hot.
394
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,640
So a good spoon of tomato puree.
395
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,240
Spoon of mustard.
396
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,800
Get some sugar into your relish
397
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,320
and that's where you're going to get
that lovely sweet and sour flavour.
398
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,680
Lovely!
399
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,280
So I just want this all
to break down.
400
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,880
A little bit of butter in there.
401
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,480
Wahey!
402
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,480
That's a luxury burger that is,
isn't it? Look at it.
403
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,200
All right, let's get this burger
out of this pan.
404
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,840
Onto this little tray...
405
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,000
..and I'm going to put that
straight into the oven.
406
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,160
You're going to need at least eight
or nine minutes to get this cooked.
407
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,400
And because of that thickness
it's not going to cook,
408
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,280
it's just going to burn in the pan.
409
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,400
Just going to put my cheese on top
and then just let it cook away.
410
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:16,920
Now our chefs can start thinking
411
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,920
about how they're going to
build the burger.
412
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,360
I've got some little pickled
cucumbers here,
413
00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:23,240
my bacon, my relish.
414
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,800
I've got a little bit
of lettuce here.
415
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,000
Could you hurry up? I'm starving
and that smells fantastic.
416
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,280
That's got my name on it.
417
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,520
Mm-hm. Right, so everything's ready.
418
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,440
So I can start to bring
this burger together.
419
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:44,800
There you go.
420
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Look at that.
421
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,840
The smell of that burger
is driving me to distraction.
422
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,440
Oh, wow.
423
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,960
Couple of bits of the cucumber.
424
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,640
There we go.
425
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,520
Look at that, look, oh!
426
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,640
There we have it. Get in there!
427
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,600
Pork and chorizo burger
428
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,680
with a tomato relish.
429
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,040
No fighting, you two.
430
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,200
I'm so taking you out
for that burger.
431
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:16,320
Mm.
432
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,200
Oh!
433
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,440
The tomato relish, it's broken down.
434
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,920
It's got the sweet and sour
which works so well
435
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,800
with the fatty flavours of the meat.
436
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,280
It's delicious.
437
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,360
We just want to see them
perfect a classic burger.
438
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:32,320
Yeah, it's straightforward,
439
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,760
but you want that lovely wow factor
when you eat it.
440
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,120
Monica, you are going to watch
proceedings
441
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,360
on the monitor from the next room.
We'll see you in a minute.
442
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:41,080
Back to the tasting.
I'll take this with me.
443
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:42,960
Take it with you, enjoy. I will.
444
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,080
First to face Marcus's test
445
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,520
is 30-year-old head chef Gareth,
446
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,760
who currently works at a fine dining
restaurant in Cardiff,
447
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,240
where he was born.
448
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,120
I always liked cooking.
449
00:21:57,120 --> 00:21:59,560
I always thought as a
14- or 15-year-old boy
450
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,800
that that was the best way
to get a girl!
451
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,640
And then I was a tearaway
little teen
452
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,280
getting kicked out of school,
453
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,240
and I joined a very military style
one-star kitchen
454
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,360
where it instilled discipline in me.
455
00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:15,800
And that's it,
I love the kitchen now.
456
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,600
I do like to put a twist
on classic dishes
457
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,040
that are recognisable
when you eat them,
458
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,720
possibly not when you look at them.
459
00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:30,760
I'm not a good loser,
but to be honest with you,
460
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,480
I don't think that's an issue
because I don't intend on losing.
461
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,480
Hello, Gareth.
Welcome to professional MasterChef.
462
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,240
This is a Skills Test
set by my friend Marcus.
463
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,560
I'd like you to make a cheeseburger
with a tomato relish.
464
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,640
20 minutes. Over to you, Gareth.
465
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,080
Lovely, let's go.
466
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,760
So I'm going to go for the beef,
467
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,920
and then I'm going to add some
of the bacon
468
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,560
to add a nice fat content to it.
469
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,680
I like that Gareth is putting
the fat of the bacon
470
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,720
through his beef burger.
471
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,160
OK, why the beef then?
472
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:08,880
It's just a classic, isn't it?
473
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,520
You make burgers at work?
474
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,440
Not at work, no,
but I've got two children,
475
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,200
so burgers are always
a firm favourite.
476
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,640
How old are your kids?
477
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,240
My little girl is seven
and my little boy is three.
478
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,440
And my little girl is actually
vegetarian, though,
479
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,320
so it's not often we get to have
a beef burger at home. All right.
480
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,080
What's the secret to a good burger,
Gareth?
481
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,560
For me, it's fat content
482
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,600
and also the seasoning in there.
483
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,920
So is he seasoning with some salt?
484
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,120
Some pepper.
485
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,520
Ideally, you want to have a binding
agent in there,
486
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,920
some breadcrumbs or an egg.
487
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,240
This is the start
of your relish, there.
488
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,160
Yes, Chef. You started off
with some sauteed chorizo?
489
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:00,800
Yes, Chef. OK.
490
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,080
So, do the little ones
at home know you're here?
491
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,440
They do indeed.
They're my biggest fans.
492
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,960
I spoke to them first thing this
morning before they went to school,
493
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,600
and all I could hear
was them screaming good luck to me.
494
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,160
I want some nice smoky flavours
going through there,
495
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,560
so we're going to use some
of the sweet smoked paprika
496
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,480
and some of the sugar.
497
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,480
We'll bring that to a caramel
in there
498
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,840
and then we'll deglaze it
with the red wine vinegar.
499
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,920
I think Gareth's kind of forgot
it's meant to be a tomato relish.
500
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,440
You've had nine minutes.
501
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:30,680
Better get that burger on, then.
502
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,120
I hope that doesn't crumble.
503
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,480
So there should be a tomato relish.
504
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,040
And I don't think he's got
any tomatoes in it.
505
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,320
Do you think we know enough
about the Welsh food scene
506
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,440
this side of the Severn?
507
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,720
I don't, I think that people forget
about how good the vegetables are.
508
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,800
The fish is amazing,
we're on the coast.
509
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,200
Burger's a bit crumbly.
510
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,720
He's going to have to be careful.
511
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,560
It's going to start to finish
my relish.
512
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,000
And I'm going to do that with a bit
of tomato ketchup in there.
513
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,920
Where's the tomatoes, though?
514
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,320
We'll get some cheese on the burger.
515
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,120
Nobody ever said no
to double cheese.
516
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:25,760
Gareth, why MasterChef, my friend?
517
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,160
I've turned 30 this year and I'm
really trying to prove myself.
518
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,280
Now is my time just to see...
519
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,400
..if I'm as good
as I really think I am.
520
00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:40,520
Looks good. You're thinking about
building it now, aren't you?
521
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,760
Yes, Chef.
522
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,640
How's your relish? I like it.
523
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,280
It's nice and smoky, sweet.
524
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:52,400
There's a touch of sour.
525
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,400
GREGG LAUGHS
526
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:00,920
Now what are you thinking?
527
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,640
If I was eating it...
528
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,320
..I'd want a gherkin.
529
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,160
Are you done, Chef? Yes, Chef.
530
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,800
Gareth, what you've given us
is a cheeseburger.
531
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,680
By no means a gourmet burger.
532
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,240
It could have crumbled, there's no
binding agent in there -
533
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,560
but a good burger.
534
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,640
Your tomato relish
is more like a, um, jam.
535
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,520
Because I believe you left
the tomatoes on the bench.
536
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,680
Chef. I like the texture of your
burger itself.
537
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,000
I like the smokiness of the chorizo
538
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,400
that you put through
that very, very sweet relish.
539
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,040
I'm actually enjoying it.
540
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:48,880
I think you could have done a lot
more with that minced meat,
541
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,000
and just put more flavour
that you've got on your bench
542
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,880
into it to make it interesting.
543
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,800
I think it's very homely.
544
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,040
You could do better than that,
I think.
545
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,920
Gareth, no embarrassment,
you got the job done.
546
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:02,520
We're looking to see more
from you in the next round.
547
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,000
Off you go, Chef. Thank you, Chef.
548
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,440
Disappointed with myself,
549
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:15,320
but it was never something I ever
could imagine being a Skills Test.
550
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,520
It's not something I practised -
but it is something I should know.
551
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,600
And, yeah, I should have done
better with it.
552
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,880
Last to face Marcus'
skills challenge
553
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,880
is 37-year-old Callum,
554
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,920
head chef at a modern British
brasserie in Herefordshire.
555
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,000
First time in the kitchen I knew
I loved it from the beginning.
556
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,600
It's just home for me.
557
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,920
You spend more time in the kitchen
than you do in your house.
558
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,240
You get up first thing
in the morning,
559
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,480
you're here, you're doing it.
560
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,440
You're doing it to an unreasonable
hour in the evening.
561
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,600
You couldn't work this hard
and not enjoy it.
562
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,240
Done Michelin star restaurants,
two-star restaurants.
563
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,800
I've worked in Gastropubs.
564
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,000
I've done a lot of sort
of catering jobs.
565
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,880
Yeah, a real sort of broad spectrum.
566
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,200
I think the skills I've honed
over the last 20 years of my career,
567
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,000
I think I've got
a pretty good arsenal,
568
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,760
things I can pull out
on the day, yeah.
569
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,400
Hello, Callum. Hello, Gregg.
570
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,600
Well...
571
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,920
Welcome to MasterChef, Chef.
572
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,320
Made a burger before? Once or twice.
573
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,760
20 minutes, over to you.
OK, thank you.
574
00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:21,680
You've got two lots of meat
on there. Pork and beef.
575
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,560
What are you going for?
I'm going to go for some beef.
576
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,880
I was going to put some pork through
for a little bit of fat,
577
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,280
just to keep the moisture.
578
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,720
Good.
579
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,280
He needs to pass half of that mix
through the mixer again.
580
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,760
It would really help sort of bind
the burger together even more.
581
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,440
What made you become a chef, Callum?
582
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,240
When I was younger, I was looking
at a career path in the military,
583
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,360
and it was actually my mother
that talked me out of it.
584
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,120
I was quite unruly growing up,
585
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,240
so I needed a career that would
take up a lot of my time.
586
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,720
So I decided a career in hospitality
would do that for me.
587
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,240
How long have you been a chef?
588
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,560
Just over 20 years.
589
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:03,800
I know I look young!
590
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,560
So the burger has only
just been minced.
591
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,760
Bit of pork in it, a bit of beef.
592
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,760
He hasn't really added much to it.
593
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,480
And your other pan has got
your tomato relish in?
594
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,560
Yeah.
595
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,600
What about the tomatoes?
596
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,560
Why MasterChef?
597
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,760
I just think that reaching
this stage of my career
598
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,960
would just be something nice
to have to show for it.
599
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,080
How's this burger looking?
600
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:37,280
Sealing it now.
601
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,640
Just going to bang it in the oven.
602
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,680
Bang it in the oven. Yeah.
603
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,880
He's got vinegar in the pan.
604
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,560
Maybe tomatoes?
605
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,120
Tomatoes, well done. Yay!
606
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,880
You have seven minutes left, Callum.
607
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,080
He's working very quickly.
608
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,160
You work really quick.
609
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,120
How many people do you
normally feed in a day?
610
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,600
So, Sunday lunch, we look at doing
about sort of 200 people.
611
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,000
So, busy little outfit.
612
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,160
Three minutes, Chef.
613
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,680
Bring it together. Thank you.
614
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,680
Just thinking of things I can put
in there to enhance it.
615
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,240
Personally, I love a bit
of onion in there.
616
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:38,960
I think it gives a real nice
earthiness.
617
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,080
Cheese can be a bit more melty.
618
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,400
Oh, on goes the burger.
619
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,720
Oh, do you know what?
620
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,320
I do love a cheeseburger
with my bacon roll.
621
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,480
THEY LAUGH
622
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,000
I'll take that.
623
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,840
You've got 30 seconds, Chef.
Let's get it on a plate.
624
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,080
If you can make it balance.
625
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,240
Are you all done, Chef? I'm done.
626
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,720
Hi, Callum. Hey, Monica.
627
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,200
It's a leaning tower of
cheeseburger.
628
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,400
Yeah, I'll take that.
629
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,000
Finesse is the one thing
I think that you're lacking.
630
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,160
It's certainly got some
height to it.
631
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,720
That's going to take some eating.
632
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,080
The burger, it needs double mincing.
633
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,960
It needs refining, it needs flavour.
634
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,440
You've got an egg yolk there,
you've got some breadcrumbs,
635
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:57,880
you've got great seasoning.
636
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,320
I want something really,
really delicious.
637
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,640
And it's not.
638
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,000
The relish, you added
the tomatoes too late.
639
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,320
You needed to get them in
and cook them down,
640
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,960
which is just odd, because
you were going very fast
641
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,160
and then sort of just didn't quite
bring the heart
642
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,720
of the cooking into it.
643
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,440
The cheese isn't melted
because you put the gherkins
644
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:19,880
between the cheese and the burger.
645
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,720
I'm pretty sure you can do this a
lot better than this. Thank you.
646
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,800
He actually looks angry
with himself.
647
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,800
I think if he just slowed down a bit
and took his time
648
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,320
to really season what he was doing
and taste,
649
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,800
it would have been a bit better.
650
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,200
I just sort of crumbled
under the pressure, really,
651
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,840
just made silly choices and tried
to do it too quickly.
652
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,200
I'm definitely better than that.
653
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,200
I haven't seen anybody shining
in this round, that's for sure,
654
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,800
but neither have I seen
any disasters.
655
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,320
Yeah, I think you've got
four chefs
656
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,080
who are potentially kicking
themselves.
657
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,040
Guys, you know what's next -
it's their own dishes.
658
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,840
So they should have been practised
and they've got to be spot on.
659
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,320
It's going to be an exciting round.
660
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,280
Welcome back. The first round,
the Skills Test, is behind you.
661
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,440
Well done.
662
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,600
Get rid of your first-round nerves.
663
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,000
You now have the opportunity
664
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,560
to showcase your signature
two-course menu.
665
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,800
A main and a dessert.
666
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,440
The two dishes you're about to cook
for us is going to tell us
667
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,600
a little bit about what you are
and who you are as chefs.
668
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,080
I wish you the best of luck.
669
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:47,480
At the end of this, two of you will
be leaving the competition,
670
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,240
but two of you will become
quarterfinalists.
671
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,480
One hour and a half
to showcase your skill,
672
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:54,800
your passion.
673
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,560
Chefs, off you go.
674
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,480
These two dishes have been the only
thing on my mind
675
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,840
for countless weeks.
676
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,600
Confident in the food.
677
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,800
Whether or not I can execute
it to the level I want
678
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,040
might be a different story.
679
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,080
Gareth, how are you doing?
I'm good, Chef, yeah.
680
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,200
I'm going to give you
a fish and chips
681
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:25,720
with a slight twist on it.
682
00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:29,680
A piece of baked cod topped with
a...deep-fried sourdough scraps,
683
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,640
and a warm buttermilk tartare sauce
684
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,480
with some beautiful little sea veg
685
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,880
and some sea lettuce powder
that me and my daughter foraged.
686
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:39,440
And your dessert is?
687
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,880
My dessert is going to be a
salted milk panna cotta
688
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,440
topped with a sourdough
and hazelnut crumb,
689
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,320
a chocolate cremeux and extra
virgin olive oil.
690
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,640
You've got bread appearing
in both dishes.
691
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,440
I used to be a baker
692
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,560
and I think there's bread running
through my veins.
693
00:34:59,240 --> 00:35:01,760
Do you think with the cookery of
this cod, you mustn't overcook it?
694
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,600
It must be cooked gently.
695
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,800
This is a take on fish and chips,
696
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,600
but the batter is not
around the fish.
697
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:08,960
It's going to be sitting on top
698
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,440
with some scraps made from
sourdough.
699
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,720
It'll be a bit greasy still, Chef,
before you try them.
700
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,640
Gareth's dessert is
salted milk panna cotta.
701
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,520
So I'm really interested to see
how the salt
702
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:22,760
and the milk really balance out,
703
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,960
but a good panna cotta
is all about the texture.
704
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,760
It's also got a chocolate cremeux,
705
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,080
so two soft textures
706
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,680
and then a sourdough crumb.
707
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,040
We also have olive oil
being drizzled onto it,
708
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,080
which will bring a real
earthiness and bitterness.
709
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:42,320
Savoury notes in puddings
done well are fantastic.
710
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,160
I actually am intrigued
by his dessert.
711
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,320
20 minutes gone, 20 minutes gone.
712
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,760
These two dishes are definitely
very close to my heart
713
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,520
because that's what I grew up eating
with my parents
714
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,920
and that does make me emotional
and make them proud.
715
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,920
Rohit wants to take Indian cuisine
that he is familiar with
716
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,000
and sort of bring a European twist
to it.
717
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,120
Lamb rack coated in yoghurt
and spices.
718
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,920
I want to taste the lamb.
719
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,920
I don't want it to be overpowered
in the spices.
720
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,480
He's also got his espumas going on.
721
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,080
He's making a crumb to go
on this dish here.
722
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,320
We've got confit potato
and a kofta to go with it.
723
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:32,040
If Rohit can achieve this,
this is going to be outstanding.
724
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,320
Any of these flavours
that really taste of home?
725
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:39,400
Yeah.
726
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,200
These are the flavours
I grew up with.
727
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,680
So it's just the modern
interpretation of that.
728
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,080
Has your mum tried these dishes?
729
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,040
My parents have tried it
as well and they liked it.
730
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,080
They just came this year
to see me as well.
731
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,440
Are your parents still with you at
the moment while you're still here?
732
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,400
Yes, still here. Does mum still want
to cook for you?
733
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:55,760
She's still cooking for me.
734
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,400
I come from work
and the food is ready.
735
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,120
For the dessert what I used to eat
in home is a phirni,
736
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,040
which is similar to rice pudding.
737
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,120
You don't want it to be too stodgy.
738
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,920
You certainly do not want
it undercooked either.
739
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,320
Rohit is topping his rice pudding
with what he calls tutti frutti,
740
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,160
something he used to eat
as a young child.
741
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,680
He's taking a chayote,
a fruit used a lot in Nepal,
742
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,520
which has a very mild flavour.
743
00:37:25,240 --> 00:37:27,200
He's making two different
stock syrups,
744
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,040
one raspberry and one mango,
745
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,200
and he's going to cook the chayote
in both of those.
746
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,320
I like the addition of
the tutti frutti,
747
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,600
but hopefully there's a bit of
sharpness in there,
748
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:38,720
a bit of contrast,
749
00:37:38,720 --> 00:37:40,800
otherwise, it's all just
very sickly sweet.
750
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,360
Rohit has given himself a lot
to do here. I hope he can do it.
751
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,640
I'll use every single second
I'll be given.
752
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,600
I don't run on my spare time,
753
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,480
but I can be fast if I have to.
754
00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:59,280
Guys, you're halfway.
755
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:00,840
You are halfway.
756
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,000
Time flies.
757
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,560
If I want to show the judges
who I actually am,
758
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,280
my dishes need to be perfect.
759
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,400
So I need to go in there
and ace this.
760
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,600
So we have poached lobster tail
761
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,360
with a lobster claw
and scallop mousse
762
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,880
in a yellow and green courgette so
it looks like a bit of a cannelloni.
763
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,440
And then I've made a lobster bisque.
764
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,520
OK. Dessert, we've got a passion
and chocolate cremeux.
765
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,520
We've got a passion
pate de fruit jelly
766
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,720
which is going to sit
around it hopefully if it sets.
767
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:36,080
Caramelised hazelnuts,
768
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,400
and then I've made a caramelised
hazelnut tuile, as well,
769
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,160
and caramelised bananas.
770
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,920
Wow, dark chocolate,
771
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,640
passion fruit and banana together?
772
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,040
These are my own inventions.
773
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,400
I know they're classic dishes,
but this is my version of that.
774
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,640
You've been at your job
for quite a while. Yeah.
775
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,320
You went in and you've risen through
the ranks, is that right?
776
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,040
Yeah, it's a place
that I love working.
777
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,400
Also, my other half works there.
778
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,040
She's a waitress, so...
779
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,640
I don't think she enjoys working
with me that much.
780
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,280
Are you better to socialise with
than you are to work with? Yeah.
781
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,080
Yeah, no-one likes being told
what to do, really, do they?
782
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,600
It sounds very classic.
We've got a lobster bisque,
783
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,200
we've got cannelloni.
784
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,160
She wants to modernise them.
785
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,080
We've got a lobster tail
which she's blanched.
786
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:19,040
Where this dish can fail or succeed
is the cooking of the lobster tail.
787
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,400
It's got to be absolutely perfect.
788
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,880
We've got a mousse that
she's put inside,
789
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,120
almost like a little
courgette cannelloni
790
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,400
which is scallops and the claw.
791
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,520
It has got to be lovely and bouncy.
792
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,720
Can't afford for that
to split out, either,
793
00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:34,880
because if your lobster mousse
isn't right
794
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,640
then this dish does not work.
795
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,720
The bisque for me is about
the flavours of the lobster.
796
00:39:40,720 --> 00:39:43,360
I just hope she reduces
that right down
797
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,120
to get some intense flavour
through it.
798
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,480
Beth's dessert,
dark chocolate cremeux.
799
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:52,200
The cremeux has got to be rich
and smooth in texture.
800
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,040
Caramelised banana, hazelnut tuile,
801
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:56,880
cremeux itself, pate de fruit,
802
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,360
a lot of techniques, a lot of
elements you've got to get right.
803
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,360
The passion fruit, well,
there's the twist.
804
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,120
There's the bit that's
the point of difference.
805
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:04,600
Passion fruit and chocolate?
806
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,680
We'll see.
807
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,280
It's a tough competition
and I need to remember that
808
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:10,760
and just bring my best.
809
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,560
15 minutes left, guys.
810
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,200
15 minutes.
I told you, it goes quick.
811
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,720
I've got enough to do, but I think
I've left adequate time.
812
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:25,920
I practised these dishes at work,
813
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,640
but it's a whole different
ballgame here.
814
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,840
I mean, for one, you haven't got
the likes of the judges
815
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,280
breathing down your neck at work,
816
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,080
so, yeah, it just completely
changes it altogether.
817
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,920
Now you've had your first
taste of this competition,
818
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,080
how are you feeling about
MasterChef now? Ooh-la-la.
819
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,720
Yeah, it was a bit of a baptism
of fire, yeah.
820
00:40:45,720 --> 00:40:47,640
What are your two courses, please?
821
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,480
I'm cooking a treacle cured
fillet beef.
822
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,720
And we're making a pea and
wasabi croquette,
823
00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:54,000
a little charred broccoli puree.
824
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,400
And we're finishing that with
a little aromatic broth.
825
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,880
Nice, nice fusion.
826
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,040
Can you handle it all?
Oh, time will tell.
827
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,440
Callum is a chef that runs
around quite a lot.
828
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,200
He is really motoring.
829
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,360
We've got some beef that he's got
treacle wrapped around it,
830
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,160
which is interesting.
831
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,560
Treacle is going to bring
a molasses-style flavour.
832
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,200
In fact, the treacle could actually
take over the flavour of the beef.
833
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:18,560
That's what concerns me.
834
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,880
Croquette, crispy on the outside,
soft in the centre.
835
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,000
I want to taste the peas
and, of course, the wasabi.
836
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,400
It's got to be balanced,
you do not want it too hot.
837
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,920
But a crispy croquette with a broth?
838
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,120
Mm.
839
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,360
I've got a funny feeling
that that just might go soggy.
840
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,920
You've got classic European
technique here with Asian flavours.
841
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,160
Where does that come from?
842
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:39,680
Just working with people
from different countries.
843
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,400
We've all sat down and come up
with dishes, with our influences
844
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,600
and what we'd like to do, and it's
just stemmed from there, really.
845
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,320
Callum's dessert, salted
chocolate delice, sounds delicious.
846
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,040
He's got whipped mascarpone on it.
847
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:52,840
There's an espresso gel as well.
848
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,120
The delice is very similar
to a cremeux.
849
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,280
It's the same sort of mix,
so it's got to be very smooth,
850
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,240
and, of course, you want to just put
your spoon through that.
851
00:42:02,240 --> 00:42:05,560
Chocolate, coffee, salt, espresso -
852
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,720
it's almost tiramisu-esque in a way.
853
00:42:07,720 --> 00:42:11,160
I like the ideas and we know that
these combinations work together.
854
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,720
Tell me the inspiration
behind your pudding.
855
00:42:14,720 --> 00:42:17,600
So a delice was one of the first
desserts I actually learned to make
856
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,080
back when I was 16,
and it's just changed over time.
857
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,760
So it's just something I know
I can execute to a standard.
858
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,560
Guys, don't want to upset you.
859
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,480
You've got ten minutes.
Going to get it done?
860
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:33,640
ALL: Yes, Chef.
861
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,080
"Yes, Chef." Wow. Get me.
862
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,480
Whoa! Got some smells over here,
Chef. Thank you.
863
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:53,800
Have they got to be cooked?
Yes, Chef.
864
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,600
You've got about five minutes left.
Yeah.
865
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,480
Ooh, this is on a hot plate.
Quick, quick, quick.
866
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,080
You have one minute 60 seconds.
867
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,920
That's all you've got. Come on, come
on, come on, come on, come on.
868
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,360
Oh, mate, you are taking this
to the absolute wire.
869
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,080
Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick.
870
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,840
OK, that's it.
871
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,560
Everybody stop!
872
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:30,840
Oh!
873
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,680
Are you OK, man? Good? Oh, yeah.
874
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,320
I don't think I breathed
for an hour. No.
875
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,680
Head chef Gareth's signature dish
876
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,440
is his take on fish and chips.
877
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,240
Baked cod loin topped with
gherkin brine mayonnaise
878
00:43:46,240 --> 00:43:48,400
and deep-fried sourdough scraps
879
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,600
seasoned with malt vinegar powder,
880
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,480
served with foraged sea vegetables
881
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,000
and a warm tartare sauce.
882
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,520
I'm wondering where my portion
of chips are,
883
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,000
but it's an elegant,
smart-looking dish.
884
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,720
Your fish is really nicely cooked.
885
00:44:11,720 --> 00:44:14,880
I like the texture
of the sourdough scraps.
886
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,880
I would have thought it was exactly
what you got
887
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:18,160
in the fish and chip shop.
888
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:19,760
The mayonnaise, you got herbs.
889
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,280
It just all works so well
with the fish.
890
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,160
I really like your take
on the tartare.
891
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,080
It's got the sharpness
and saltiness of capers,
892
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,200
and there's a little bit of shallot
in there as well and it's herby,
893
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,360
but it's lighter.
894
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,800
I want that fish to sit on a pile
of pomme puree or mashed potato,
895
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,240
or I want something else.
896
00:44:37,240 --> 00:44:40,120
But what you've put on the plate
tastes great.
897
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:41,920
The sauce is delicious.
898
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,800
The fish is perfectly cooked.
899
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,520
It's a good dish, I like it a lot.
900
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,160
Thank you.
901
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:48,760
For his signature dessert
902
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,520
Gareth is serving a salted milk
panna cotta
903
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,440
topped with dark chocolate cremeux
904
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,720
and a sourdough and hazelnut crumb,
905
00:44:56,720 --> 00:44:58,680
finished with olive oil.
906
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,520
Salt and olive oil on a
panna cotta and chocolate.
907
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,360
Yes, Chef. OK.
908
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,240
The panna cotta is beautifully set.
909
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:13,600
I love the saltiness of it.
910
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,200
It's almost neutral-esque.
911
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,040
And then to just finish it with oil?
912
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:18,480
Oh, brave.
913
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,720
But it works.
914
00:45:19,720 --> 00:45:21,200
That's a cracking pudding.
915
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,200
Extraordinary piece of work.
916
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,040
Great use of bread.
917
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,200
There are little bits of sweet crumb
around the nut,
918
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,040
and you don't know when you're going
to get them.
919
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:32,760
And of course the chocolate
is sweet,
920
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,800
but the rest is savoury.
921
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,400
All that saltiness just enhances
the sweet notes.
922
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,040
Absolutely delicious.
923
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,280
It's really a dessert
that's quite moreish,
924
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:44,920
and you just keep going in for more.
925
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,840
You've caught my attention.
926
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,160
Well done.
927
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,680
I doubt my head will fit
through the door when I leave
928
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:54,600
because that's incredible.
929
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:59,640
Sous-chef Rohit is serving a take
on flavours from his childhood.
930
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,720
Turmeric and ginger marinated
lamb cutlet
931
00:46:02,720 --> 00:46:05,760
served with confit-cumin potato,
932
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,760
lamb mince and offal kofte,
933
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,520
topped with lamb fat pangrattato,
934
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,680
mint, lemon and coriander espuma
935
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,840
and a lamb curry sauce.
936
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,880
The cookery of your lamb
is fantastic.
937
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:31,040
I love the cumin smokiness
on the potato.
938
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:32,800
I love your liver kofta -
939
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,360
there's almost a sweetness to that.
940
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,440
And the crispy breadcrumbs you got
at the top are getting luscious
941
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,560
because you cooked those
in lamb fat.
942
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,480
So, well done. Thank you.
943
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:45,080
What I've got left is a little spice
a little bit of heat.
944
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:49,120
But I've not lost anything
that I've eaten on this plate
945
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,040
and that takes some doing.
946
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,240
It's very easy to overpower
what you've got on the plate
947
00:46:54,240 --> 00:46:56,040
with the heat in here,
948
00:46:56,040 --> 00:47:00,200
and I think you've got that nicely
sitting on the palate.
949
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:03,720
I think the yoghurt, espuma,
the coriander and the lemon there
950
00:47:03,720 --> 00:47:05,880
really does just calm
the palate down.
951
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,040
These are the childhood flavours
that you brought
952
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:09,160
into the MasterChef kitchen.
953
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,640
You've obviously eaten well
growing up. Thank you, sir.
954
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,200
Your mum must be a great cook.
955
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:19,400
For dessert, Rohit has cooked
saffron and cardamom rice pudding,
956
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,200
topped with a tutti frutti
of chayote,
957
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,200
flavoured with mango and raspberry
sugar syrups
958
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,920
and crumbled pistachio nankhatai,
959
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,720
or Indian cookies.
960
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:39,880
I think you've got some work to do
on your presentation.
961
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,280
But the flavour of the base,
the rice itself,
962
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,040
I do like the levels of saffron and
cardamom that you've got in there.
963
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:46,960
It's a lot softer
than I was expecting.
964
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,400
I like that a lot.
965
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,800
I really am intrigued by
what you've done with that chayote,
966
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,440
which is not used that much,
especially in dessert.
967
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,520
You flavoured it
different fruit syrups.
968
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,120
It's quite juicy, I like it.
969
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,400
I like the textures of the crumb
and of course the sweetness
970
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,640
of the raspberry and the mango.
971
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:08,440
I just find there's just too much
of that sweetness on here.
972
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,120
But I have enjoyed the dessert.
973
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,480
Thank you very much.
Thank you, Chef.
974
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,520
I'm feeling a big relief
after that feedback.
975
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,520
What they said about the dessert,
976
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:18,960
I totally agree with that.
977
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:22,040
But I gave it everything I had,
to be honest.
978
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:28,200
Senior sous-chef Beth's signature
main course is poached lobster tail,
979
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,920
served with cannelloni of courgette,
980
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,160
stuffed with scallop and lobster
claw mousse,
981
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,280
finished with a lobster bisque.
982
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,600
I love the cookery
of your lobster tail.
983
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,080
It's buttery and it's soft.
984
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:56,160
I like this little
zucchini cannelloni.
985
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,080
And you've made a mousse
from scallops.
986
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,080
That's clever cookery,
which I think is delicious.
987
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:04,840
The lobster tail curled up
988
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:09,000
so when you have taken the lobster
out of the shell underneath,
989
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:10,840
it's all broken up.
990
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,440
And the cannelloni,
the chopped up claws inside
991
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,440
could have been refined
a little bit more.
992
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,040
This dish has huge potential,
993
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,920
but its execution here is what's let
this plate of food down.
994
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:24,720
The bisque, for me, there is an
overpowering sweetness,
995
00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:27,520
possibly too much of the
orange juice.
996
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:31,280
Other than that, you have shown
some great skills on here.
997
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,920
For dessert, Beth has made a passion
fruit and chocolate cremeux,
998
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,800
encased by a passion fruit
pate de fruit jelly,
999
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,240
topped with caramelised bananas
and hazelnuts
1000
00:49:45,240 --> 00:49:47,440
and a hazelnut tuile.
1001
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,960
The cremeux is rich and smooth
1002
00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,920
and that's lovely.
1003
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:04,680
What I'm finding too overpowering
is the amount of passion fruit jelly
1004
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,360
and the sharpness that has.
1005
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,680
It's too much for this
chocolate dessert.
1006
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,880
The pate de fruit - it's too dense.
It's too heavy.
1007
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,680
The hazelnuts - maybe a little bit
more work on those,
1008
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:19,560
a little bit more creativity.
1009
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:22,080
And the banana - same thing.
1010
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:26,040
This little tuile isn't snappy.
1011
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:27,200
It's too bendy.
1012
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,880
But the banana isn't too sweet,
1013
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,680
and you've used it sparingly.
1014
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:34,160
Chocolate and passion fruit,
I'm finding absolutely delightful.
1015
00:50:35,720 --> 00:50:38,120
The dishes I did, I am proud of.
1016
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,520
There's, like, a few things
I could have tweaked,
1017
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,840
but I think that was just
the pressure that got to me.
1018
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,800
Head chef Callum's
signature main course
1019
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,720
is a treacle-marinated
fillet of beef,
1020
00:50:49,720 --> 00:50:54,520
served with a pea and wasabi
croquette, charred broccoli puree
1021
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,080
and oyster mushrooms...
1022
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,840
..finished with a chilli,
beef and ginger broth.
1023
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:10,960
My beef is cooked wonderfully,
1024
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:15,360
but I can't taste the treacle
that you had put around it.
1025
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:16,520
It's not really there.
1026
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,840
What you've got here is a really
nice, beefy broth
1027
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:25,080
with flavours of lemongrass and
a bit of ginger and a bit of chilli,
1028
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:26,280
and it's lovely,
1029
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,440
but obviously to do a croquette
that's supposed to be crispy,
1030
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,920
put it sitting on slippery
mushrooms and a puree,
1031
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:32,280
it's going to make it wet.
1032
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,320
Pour a broth over it,
you've made it even more wet.
1033
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,080
The croquette is
beautifully seasoned.
1034
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,160
I can taste the wasabi.
I can taste the peas.
1035
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:40,880
But broth doesn't go on a plate.
1036
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,360
It's like a soup.
1037
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:43,560
So, there's good and there's bad.
1038
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,560
I'll take that. Thank you, Chef.
Not at all.
1039
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,320
For dessert, Callum is serving
a salted chocolate delice,
1040
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:55,200
topped with whipped mascarpone,
roasted hazelnuts.
1041
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:59,120
coffee gel and caramelised
white chocolate wafers.
1042
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:11,600
I like that - tiramisu-esque.
1043
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,200
Coffee, white chocolate,
burnt chocolate,
1044
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,600
not too bitter, alongside
the fruity chocolate
1045
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:18,320
that sits underneath it as well.
1046
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,400
Proper coffee bitterness in there,
1047
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,080
amongst the chocolate,
that's not too sweet.
1048
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:27,880
Well done. Creaminess and almost
saltiness of the mascarpone.
1049
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,440
That's a lovely, lovely combination.
1050
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,600
Really, really like that.
1051
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,920
It's a great dessert. I think the
delice, the cremeux is so smooth.
1052
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,000
You can see it when you put
your spoon through that.
1053
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:41,480
And I think it works so well
with the bitterness of the coffee
1054
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:42,960
and textures of hazelnut.
1055
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:48,560
Yeah, obviously, I took
the criticism on board
1056
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,160
about my beef dish, and I think
I would go back and change that.
1057
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,800
I think that cost me a little bit,
maybe, but I got some good feedback.
1058
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,400
So, yeah, ultimately, all good.
1059
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,480
I thought a very decent
level of cookery here.
1060
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:08,600
There were issues, but some great
personalities starting to shine.
1061
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,400
And certainly a lot to discuss.
1062
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:13,240
Who's our top of the tree?
1063
00:53:13,240 --> 00:53:16,040
It's Gareth, isn't it, from Cardiff?
1064
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:19,320
Main course of a perfectly
cooked piece of cod.
1065
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,800
I think he's a very, very good cook.
1066
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,480
Loved the little crispy scraps
on top.
1067
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:24,920
Tartare sauce was delicious.
1068
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,480
Now, that dessert really stood out.
1069
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:28,880
The sort of panna cotta
1070
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,040
with the chocolate cremeux
over the top.
1071
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:34,200
Oil that we poured onto it -
very clever.
1072
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,280
I loved the twists and I like
the dishes that he put up today.
1073
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:39,560
Can we put him through?
Yeah. Absolutely.
1074
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,920
Beth. The lobster, I thought,
was cooked very well.
1075
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:46,280
I liked the cannelloni with
the yellow and green courgettes.
1076
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,280
But I didn't like the execution
of the lobster.
1077
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,880
Mine was all broken up
when it came out of the shell.
1078
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:54,080
That bisque, I found, was too sweet.
1079
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:55,400
And then the dessert.
1080
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:58,840
On its own, passion fruit pate
de fruit like that is lovely.
1081
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:02,120
It was too strong. It completely
destroyed the chocolate cremeux.
1082
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:05,040
Rohit's spice cookery is excellent.
1083
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,800
Lamb was beautifully cooked.
1084
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,480
Of course, the mint
and coriander espuma
1085
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,560
with the yoghurt was delicious.
1086
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:14,080
Just the use of spicing throughout
was really good.
1087
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,000
I was impressed.
1088
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,880
The dessert - loved the texture
of the rice pudding.
1089
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,200
What I liked was there were
the textures of the crumb,
1090
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,160
but I didn't like the
overpowering sweetness
1091
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:28,200
of the mango and raspberry chayote.
1092
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,120
So, a bit disappointed
with the dessert,
1093
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:31,800
loved that main course.
1094
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,080
Callum, the beef was
beautifully cooked. Mmm.
1095
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,280
I didn't think the treacle brought
anything to the plate itself.
1096
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,600
There was just no business having a
broth to pour over a croquette,
1097
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,400
because then it
all just got wishy-washy.
1098
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,240
Dessert - loved the chocolate delice
with the hazelnut.
1099
00:54:47,240 --> 00:54:50,240
Flavour of tiramisu. Very good dish.
1100
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,840
A lot tougher than I expected,
1101
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:55,520
but got some good praise as well.
1102
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:58,440
So, yeah, hopefully I could
have pulled it off.
1103
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:01,400
I'd love to be able to come back
and show the judges who I really am,
1104
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:04,480
because I don't feel like I executed
everything perfect today.
1105
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:09,160
I guess I've done enough to get
through but, then again,
1106
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,360
there is always someone better
than me so,
1107
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,680
if they have done better than me,
I wish them all the best.
1108
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,200
Great signature round
from all four of you.
1109
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,440
There were dishes there
that we really did enjoy.
1110
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:30,600
So, Chefs, well done.
1111
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:32,840
We have made a decision.
1112
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,280
Two of you are going through
to a quarterfinal.
1113
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,720
Two of you are leaving
the competition.
1114
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,280
Our first quarterfinalist is...
1115
00:55:47,240 --> 00:55:48,400
..Gareth.
1116
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,480
Well done. Thank you.
1117
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:54,360
Congratulations, my friend.
1118
00:55:55,880 --> 00:56:00,560
The chef joining Gareth
and going on to a quarterfinal is...
1119
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:09,880
..Rohit.
1120
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,680
Thank you. Congratulations.
Thank you.
1121
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:14,080
Congratulations.
1122
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,040
If it's any consolation,
it was very, very close.
1123
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,120
You did very well. Thank you.
1124
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:20,480
I appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
1125
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:21,520
Thank you.
1126
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:27,000
I didn't do my best today,
but I'm still a young chef
1127
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,040
and I'm finding my style
the more I cook.
1128
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:31,520
So, watch this space.
1129
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,280
I feel a bit disappointed,
1130
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:38,240
but I think I went out to better
people, so I'll take that.
1131
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:41,440
Yay!
1132
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,560
Thank you.
Congratulations, the pair of you.
1133
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:49,080
Really good job. Same.
Well done, you two. Well deserved.
1134
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,560
That is exciting.
1135
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,200
I just can't wait to get home
and tell my kids.
1136
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,880
I think, if they don't cry, I will.
1137
00:56:57,880 --> 00:56:59,120
I can't wait to make them proud.
1138
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:01,960
It feels really great.
1139
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:04,360
It feels like over the cloud now,
to be honest.
1140
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:08,360
Going to quarterfinals is a massive,
massive milestone in my life.
1141
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:16,040
Next time, it's the quarterfinal,
1142
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:22,000
and this week's most talented chefs
return to face two tough challenges.
1143
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,920
I am liking the look of those.
Mm-mm.
1144
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,120
Yeah, you need to get a move on.
You've got less than 60 seconds, OK?
1145
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:29,520
Yes, Chef.
1146
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,480
Only the best will earn
a place in knockout week.
1147
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:34,600
Looks gorgeous.
1148
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,120
I want to marry it.
