Masterchef 2016

[kopenhagen5]

Anyone watching it ?

I have just started so can someone tell me how many at the start and how many have been eliminated. 

Thanks.

Go onto a cooking comp- has 'master' in the title..

cook this

Well that was a surprise and such a 'mature for his age' young boy that chef.

I'm sad to see Anastasia go, would have preferred Teresa or Chloe (6 times in a pressure test).

I like Matt, Heather, Mimi and Harry. The rest, I don't think have it. Although Chloe could fluke it through. Hope not.

[youcandoityoucandoityoucandoit]

Shame for Anastasia..she was a risk taker, but so tough on herself..I liked the way she thought about food..

Thought Heather did really well- kept her cool, and pushed herself..

some of them seem to be realising that its an opportunity to learn and grow if you work hard every time youre in the kitchen..

will be a good battle tonight..looking forward to seeing what all four do (unlike last nights ep, when 3 out of the four could have easily gone home, and I wouldnt have minded..)

Glad to see Anastasia go ( she was swaying before the cook-off,  lol)

I'm still trying to figure out how one beetroot took an hour to cook

in a pressure cooker.    It takes an hour on the stove top.   I cook it regularly.

And I liked the look of the Beet Wellington.

Tonight's episode should be great.   A good cook-off with great cooks

Maybe that swaying thing is a sign of tiredness? heel toe heel toe ohoh we lost another one! haha

Was it my imagination, or was Chloe hardly onscreen last night? Bit odd?

[imastawka]

Yeah, not much of Chloe last night.

That swaying thing is not toe to heel.  And not tiredness.  It's before they cook.

What I'm talking about is hands clasped either in back or front and swivelling

the hips in a circle,  like a 3 yo.   Maybe they think it's cute?

[youcandoityoucandoityoucandoit]

Oh..havent noticed that..will have to watch more closely! sounds a bit weird.

Hope Trent does well tonight..haha am already assuming Matt will do well..actually, I want all these 4 to do well

[kopenhagen5]

Such a good contest tonight.

I thought Matt picked the right section inadvertently.

It left the prof chef without the main Asian ingredients.

During the cooking, it's the first time I have seen the amateur seem to be way in front of the prof.

So interesting because it's so evenly matched.

And the winner is......................

[imastawka]

How did Karmen fall behind if she was first to the sugar spinning?

I reckon she deliberately slowed down.  Couldn't take the pressure of winning.

Well done Matt.   That boy sure can cook

[imastawka]

Stupid Masterchef screening menu. 

Both teams picked salmon and eye fillet steak.

Both teams made a numbers blunder.

But Brett recovered.     Matt didn't, and he should have been on top of it.

Hope Mimi went tonight - haven't watched it yet.

Chloe is still swaying like a 3 yo
