Ημερομηνία προβολής: Σεπ 28, 2010

Legendary double Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jr and Masterchef dining expert Gregg Wallace are joined by Michel's trusted sous chef Monica Galetti as they hunt for a young chef who has what it takes to go to the top of the culinary world. In an hour-long show, eight more chefs face a nail-biting elimination round. The first four contestants must demonstrate they have the necessary skills and palate by preparing and cooking wild mushrooms, while the second four must correctly fillet and cook fresh sardines. One chef from each round will be going home, and the remaining contestants face one more gruelling elimination challenge. Michel cooks a classic recipe of Dover sole with prawns, oysters and a cream sauce, before asking three of the chefs to recreate the dish in just 60 minutes, while the remaining three must recreate a classic bitter orange tart with orange sauce. After judging each plate on presentation and flavour, Michel and Gregg will send two more chefs home. The two best chefs from each part make it through to the quarter-final and are a step closer to winning the title of Professional Masterchef.
