1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,335
It's knockout week on
MasterChef: The Professionals.
2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,935
Last time, two more chefs
were sent home.
3
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:17,015
Now the strongest ten
are being split into two groups
4
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:22,655
to compete outside the MasterChef
kitchen for the first time...
5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,015
Running around
like a headless chicken.
6
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:26,695
Yes, yes, yes!
7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,575
Pray for Molly.
8
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:34,295
...before returning to fight
for a place in the semifinals.
9
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,455
I've gone through different
challenges, different tasks.
10
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:40,735
I've got this far. I just want
to win now. It's go time.
11
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,655
The other chefs that I'm up against,
they're unbelievable.
12
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,255
I'm going to give it everything
that I've got today on this.
13
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,415
Today is a really big day. I really
want to get to the semifinals,
14
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,135
it's all I'm thinking about.
It's got to happen, basically.
15
00:00:53,160 --> 00:00:55,495
The competition's getting
to the cutting edge now.
16
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,175
This is no time to play it safe.
17
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,615
Two massive challenges between these
five and a place in the semifinal.
18
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,855
Pop-up restaurants have
revolutionised the way we eat.
19
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,495
With a vibrant mix of cuisines
on offer in dynamic settings,
20
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,015
some of the most exciting food
currently in the UK
21
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,495
has come from the pop-up industry.
22
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:32,615
Tonight, James, Tommy, Charlie,
23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,055
Molly and Lauren
24
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:40,415
will be opening
the MasterChef Professionals' pop-up
25
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:46,495
at Market Halls, a popular dining
venue in the heart of London.
26
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,335
Pop-up restaurants are
a very different atmosphere
27
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,855
to what our chefs have been used to.
28
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,215
We need to see a different
side to our chefs today.
29
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,655
They've got to embrace
this environment.
30
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,575
I'm properly excited about this.
31
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,455
Chefs, welcome to Market Halls,
right here in central London,
32
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,215
one of the largest pop-up
restaurant venues in the country.
33
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,375
Competition amongst chefs
for residency in a place
34
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,655
like this is fierce.
35
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,935
This is a chance
for you to make your mark.
36
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:32,215
You are going to be presenting
your food to 25 movers and shakers,
37
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,175
not just in the pop-up scene,
but in the food industry as a whole.
38
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,615
We are going to give them
the opportunity to vote
39
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:40,255
on their favourite dish.
40
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,175
The chef who gets the most
votes will go straight
41
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,775
through to the semifinals.
42
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,495
Three hours, chefs, to deliver
something quite spectacular.
43
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,775
Off you go.
44
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,735
Having to share a work space
in tightly packed kitchens,
45
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,975
the contestants will have their work
cut out to prepare their dish
46
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,495
for today's pop-up menu.
47
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,895
This is completely new for me.
48
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:12,695
I've never done any pop-up of any
kind, so it's very intimidating
49
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:13,895
coming here today.
50
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,135
I'm confident but, at the same time,
I don't want to get overconfident
51
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,695
and stitch myself up further
down the line.
52
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,975
I'm used to cooking
in places like this cos
53
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,015
I've got my own hash brown
street food business.
54
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,695
I've done a pop-up,
but just not as much pressure.
55
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,095
My game plan is put my head down,
56
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,215
got to go for it.
57
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,855
All five of them will have
a burning desire to stand out here.
58
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,735
It's got to be smart, I want
it to be edgy, but it's also got
59
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,775
to be doable in big numbers.
60
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,975
Keen to continue to showcase
his love of Asian flavours,
61
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,135
street food van owner James
is making a very different take
62
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,375
on a Chinese classic.
63
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,695
The inspiration behind
my dish is prawn toast.
64
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,695
I love prawn toast,
so hopefully it'll go down well.
65
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,095
James has got a dish
that's intriguing -
66
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,975
two types of prawn mince, and
we've got two different flavours.
67
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,375
We've got jalapeno peppers,
68
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,415
and then gochujang,
a red pepper spice, piped out,
69
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,095
one on top of the other,
rolled into a ballotine, chilled,
70
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,575
and then that's going to be wrapped
in spring roll pastry laces.
71
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,135
This must feel like home to you!
72
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,175
It is! I'm used to cooking
in places like this.
73
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,255
So both of these are prawn meat,
and it's going into, like,
74
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:30,935
a spring roll? Essentially,
but with shredded pastry.
75
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,495
So I'm going to shred the pastry
and then roll it up
76
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,415
so it's like a big tumbleweed. Loads
of lovely texture on the outside.
77
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,975
I love prawn toast. I wanted to
kind of replicate prawn toast
78
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,695
a bit better. This sounds like
probably the most glamorous
79
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,575
and really interesting-sounding
prawn toast I think I've ever had.
80
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,415
It's going to have to work.
Oui, Chef.
81
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,255
I'm curious to see how
he's going to wrap this up.
82
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:54,415
Cos I don't want
those prawn flavours
83
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,935
disappearing into a deep fryer.
84
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,295
We've got prawn head mayonnaise,
85
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,655
so he's got the prawn heads
he's cooked down in the wok,
86
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,775
then he's going to make
his mayonnaise with that oil,
87
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,335
which I think is a great idea.
88
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,335
We've also got
wakame seaweed relish,
89
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,775
which is going to sit on the side.
90
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,815
Underneath all of
these big flavours,
91
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:13,255
we've got a katsu curry-inspired
chilli sauce.
92
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:15,255
# Spicy, spicy! #
93
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:19,815
James we know can do invention
94
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:22,335
but, like all inventions,
95
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,295
it's either going to be
the next great thing
96
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,975
or the next forgettable thing.
97
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,975
Once the prawn rolls get set, then
I'll feel a lot more under control.
98
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,415
Get them in the fridge.
99
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,335
There's more going on in my food
today than I've done before,
100
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,935
so it's a lot more pressure
that I'm putting on myself.
101
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,535
Sous-chef Lauren has stood out with
food from her Jamaican heritage
102
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,935
and is hoping to shine again
with a Caribbean spice oxtail,
103
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,855
served with bone marrow butter.
104
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,975
I'm making what is called,
like, a green seasoning.
105
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,375
So, like, wet marinade
for the oxtail.
106
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,015
I've got some garlic,
Scotch bonnet, parsley,
107
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,175
chilli powder, smoked paprika.
108
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,255
Lauren, she's adding strong
Caribbean flavours to that.
109
00:06:08,280 --> 00:06:10,335
We've got a Scotch bonnet chilli,
110
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,935
one of the hottest chillies
on the planet.
111
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,935
If you use it sparingly,
it gives a fruity flavour.
112
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,335
If you go too far,
it will just strip your palate.
113
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,415
Pretty important I get it on now
so that it can seep into the meat,
114
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,295
so I'm going to vac-pack it to try
and intensify it, as normally
115
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,295
I'd leave it about 24 hours.
116
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,815
We've got coconut and kidney bean
puree. She's going to be
117
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:31,815
putting the kidney beans
inside the bone marrow
118
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:35,055
and then she's covering that with
the beautifully braised oxtail.
119
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,855
Also got a bone marrow butter
with cassava crisps.
120
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,215
What's inspired the dish? This is
121
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,815
one of my favourite dishes to cook.
I do it for people that I love.
122
00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:46,455
It's one of those dishes
that reminds me of Christmas-time,
123
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,535
or a birthday, or some sort
of special occasion,
124
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,135
cos that's when you normally do it.
125
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,255
You've got a big smile on your face
right now. Love the sound of it.
126
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:55,575
You've got a lot of work
to get on with. Thank you.
127
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,655
It's a tried-and-tested recipe,
sort of recipe that she cooks
128
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,055
for her family, and she's bringing
this to some of the top people
129
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,255
in the pop-up world.
130
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:08,295
I need to make sure that
everything is on point,
131
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,895
stick to the plan and
try and get that pass.
132
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,215
SHE LAUGHS
133
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,015
Stepping away from his usual
classical style, head chef Tommy
134
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,975
has instead chosen to cook
his version of one of the world's
135
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,455
most globally recognised takeaways.
136
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,535
I'm making a ribeye kebab.
137
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,095
Thai slaw with that,
138
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,495
some crispy and pickled
shallot rings,
139
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,175
a kimchi emulsion,
140
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,655
and some pickled chillies.
141
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,895
Quite a mixed bunch of cuisines,
I like to think.
142
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,135
Hopefully it works.
143
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,415
Tell us about the idea
behind your menu, please.
144
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,735
Basically, the last time
I was in London, on the way home,
145
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,735
I was very hungry and the only thing
I could find was a kebab.
146
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,375
And eating it on the way
to the tube, I was like,
147
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,415
"This is actually very tasty."
It's kind of inspired by the idea
148
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,775
of a really delicious kebab,
so that's what I'm going for today.
149
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,935
Are you going to serve it
with a knife and fork
150
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,215
or is it going to be in a pitta?
It's going to be in a flatbread,
151
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,295
basically, so it's going
to be a big, fat flatbread.
152
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,055
I want them to eat it,
getting messy and just be like,
153
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,175
"Wow, that's delicious,"
you know, that's what I want.
154
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,775
We've got some ribeye which
he's marinating in shio koji,
155
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,895
which is a Japanese marinade.
156
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,295
Shio koji is, like, a naturally
fermented rice grain, essentially.
157
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,855
Very umami.
158
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,375
The thing is, you've got such
a delicious piece of beef,
159
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,095
what you put on it has got
to enhance it, not destroy it.
160
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,215
We've got Thai coleslaw, we've got
pickled chillies with this dish.
161
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,735
Kimchi emulsion, which has also got
some spice in the emulsion, too.
162
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,455
So kimchi is fermented cabbage,
contains a lot of chilli,
163
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,695
got quite a bit of heat.
164
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,215
It's also got that sort of natural
sweet and sour note to it.
165
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,215
You're going to have hot,
you're going to have sweet,
166
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,495
you're going to have sour.
167
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,775
You could have a lot of ingredients
all working against each other.
168
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,535
I hope this dish
is tried-and-tested.
169
00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:01,695
Hopefully, some of the guests
today are hungover,
170
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,615
that'll probably work in my favour.
171
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,535
HE LAUGHS
172
00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:09,935
22-year-old Charlie is a head chef
at a fish restaurant in Cornwall,
173
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,975
but for today's menu has decided
to create a plant-based bao bun...
174
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,935
So I'm making my bao mix here.
175
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,455
This is the key part of the dish,
getting this proved,
176
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,295
that's why it's my first job.
177
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,855
...that he plans to fill
with a tropical Asian fruit,
178
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,895
oyster mushrooms
and a cola barbecue sauce.
179
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,455
All veg-based? All plant-based.
180
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,855
Yeah, why are you doing that?
181
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,375
So, outside of work,
182
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,175
I optionally choose to go
on a plant-based diet.
183
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,895
So for me, this is
quite close to home,
184
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,735
something I'm quite
passionate about.
185
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,015
I really want to prove that you can
turn plants, fruit and vegetables
186
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,975
into something that tastes
exactly like meat.
187
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,695
Charlie's incredibly passionate
about his plant-based food,
188
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,815
so I love the fact he's bringing
that here to the pop-up.
189
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,935
I've got my bao bun on to prove now,
and I need to get every other
190
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:03,055
job done before that's ready
to go into its second prove.
191
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,255
So every other element to the dish
needs to be done in the next hour.
192
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,455
He's using a fresh jackfruit,
193
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,175
and he's also using
tinned jackfruit,
194
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,135
so the tinned will be savoury.
195
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,775
The fresh one will add a slight
sweetness to it, that's lovely.
196
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,495
He's got oyster mushroom
going through there as well.
197
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,575
These are nice textures.
198
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,735
So, cola-flavoured barbecue sauce.
Yeah. Go on, tell me about that.
199
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,495
So the main base mix of that,
I've got it here, is the cola,
200
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,775
and then it's got a little bit
of sugar in there,
201
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,535
red wine vinegar,
garlic, tomato paste.
202
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:37,935
And I'm going to reduce that down
203
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,855
over the jackfruit
and the mushrooms.
204
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,895
I need to just be careful.
This is quite a ripe jackfruit.
205
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,775
And obviously, just like any fruit,
the riper it is, the sweeter is.
206
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,375
Obviously, I've got a cola barbecue
sauce going on so the whole
207
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,095
thing could get a little too sweet.
So I think I'm just going to make
208
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,015
an adjustment now with how much
sugar I add into my barbecue sauce.
209
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,215
# Wah-bah-bah. #
210
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,415
Having stood out so far
with her classic dishes,
211
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,135
private chef Molly has come up
with a dessert combining
212
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,375
two recipes from opposite
sides of the world.
213
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,815
Right, what are you cooking?
I'm doing a take on opera cake.
214
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:19,775
Oh! So, classic French.
215
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,135
Layered coffee sponge, butter cream.
Yeah.
216
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,415
All about technique,
all about skill.
217
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,495
I'm making it into a baked Alaska.
218
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,735
I've made an orange
and coffee ice cream.
219
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,655
I'm going to do a disc of opera,
220
00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:34,855
then a scoop of
the ice cream on top,
221
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,695
and then I'm going to finish it off
with an Italian meringue,
222
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,895
blowtorch it.
223
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,975
You're taking a risk with this one.
224
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,815
That ice cream melts,
you're in big trouble.
225
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,895
Got to take risks. If I can't take
risks now, I'm never going to.
226
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,055
What Molly's attempting, I think
is wonderful, but it's incredibly
227
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,415
ambitious in this atmosphere.
228
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,495
Remember, she's not got
to get one or two out,
229
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,575
she's got to get 25 of them out.
230
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,335
She's got a sponge.
231
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,855
The opera cake itself
has layers of sponge.
232
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:06,015
I just can't take my eyes off them.
If I take my eyes off them,
233
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,255
I might as well just go home now.
234
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,935
On top of that,
you've got a coffee ice cream.
235
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,175
Yeah.
236
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,655
Really strong coffee.
237
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,495
Then she's going to cover the whole
thing in an Italian meringue.
238
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,735
It'll just be go, go, go,
push, push, push till the end today.
239
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,455
But it needs technical ability,
240
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,575
a little bit of artistry and style.
241
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,095
Pray for Molly.
242
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,935
I really think we've got
five great dishes here.
243
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:36,255
This is going to be about
service and execution.
244
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,735
Who's the one that really
wants to go straight
245
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,415
through to our semifinal?
246
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,295
That's what it's all about.
247
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,255
Chefs, an hour of prep time
has gone already!
248
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,895
James has been busy preparing
enough shredded pastry
249
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,455
to encase 25 portions
of his spiced prawn mix.
250
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,695
Basically, just cutting it into,
essentially, pasta noodles.
251
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,895
So it's going to be a lovely
amount of texture on it and look
252
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,495
really cool as well.
253
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,615
You want the pastry case
to be the security that wraps
254
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,375
around the prawn flavours,
because I don't want the prawn
255
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,615
to taste of oil, especially
the oil of a deep fat fryer.
256
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,535
While the pastry laces chill,
257
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:28,895
James's next job is to finish
making his prawn head mayonnaise...
258
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,815
So I've infused oil
with all the heads,
259
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,735
a bit of ginger, then emulsifier.
260
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,175
...and the wakame seaweed relish.
261
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,015
I'm going to be cooking it down
with some onions, a bit of ginger,
262
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,495
sugar and some rice wine vinegar.
263
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,575
Almost like a very quick chutney.
264
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,895
Hopefully, a little bit of
sweet and sour on the side to
265
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,495
what's quite a spicy, rich dish.
266
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,335
Should be good, should be good.
267
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,815
Lauren's Caribbean spiced oxtail
has been marinating for 30 minutes,
268
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,415
and she's now started the first
of two cooking processes.
269
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,335
So I'm browning the oxtail.
270
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,415
If you want to get
a really nice, deep flavour,
271
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,135
you caramelise brown sugar in some
oil and then you sear your meat.
272
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,535
I'm just basing it on Jamaicans,
that we do this technique.
273
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:15,455
So once I've done this, it's got to
go straight into the pressure cooker
274
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,015
and get soft.
SHE CHUCKLES
275
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,855
The most important thing
about cooking oxtail is cooking it
276
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,055
so that the meat just
falls off the bone.
277
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,935
If it doesn't naturally fall
off the bone, it's not cooked.
278
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,815
I'm nervous about
the pressure cooker.
279
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,095
I'm hoping that it's perfect,
it melts in the mouth.
280
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,655
I've also got my kidney bean
and coconut puree on,
281
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,735
my rice is cooking, and now
I'm getting ready to get
282
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,575
my cassava ready.
283
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,975
Cassava is a very, very starchy
white vegetable.
284
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,055
She's going to slice it down thinly
and make chips out of it.
285
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:51,055
I need to also scrape the marrow
from my bones to use for a butter.
286
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:53,895
For a flavour with
those cassava chips,
287
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,055
she's got bone marrow,
and then she's going to whisk
288
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,855
that into butter.
289
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,415
But what she's got there
is fat on fat.
290
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,895
She's also got oxtail, lots of fat.
291
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,415
She's got to be
really, really careful here
292
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,335
this isn't greasy
and it's not too rich.
293
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,295
Tommy is finishing off the dough
294
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,375
for his flatbreads
to hold his ribeye kebab meat.
295
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,295
So I've got bread flour,
natural yoghurt, cumin seeds,
296
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,895
so it's quite a simple flatbread.
297
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,015
I don't want to
mess around too much.
298
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,695
While the dough rests,
299
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,775
Tommy has three different
garnishes to get ready.
300
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,655
Just prepped all of my
shallot rings for the pickle.
301
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,535
Just prepping the red cabbage
for my coleslaw now,
302
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,095
so a lot of veg chopping.
303
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,895
Going to have a variety of
different vegetables come together.
304
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,295
Got a lot to do still,
so definitely up against it.
305
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,655
Charlie's cola barbecue sauce is
ready to be added to his
306
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:02,295
jackfruit and mushroom filling
for the bao buns.
307
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,735
Literally just got to bring
that down now for the next hour,
308
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,055
and it'll really go into
the jackfruit and the mushrooms
309
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,295
and give that meaty flavour.
310
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,975
A lot of slaw to make,
so I've got my celeriac in there,
311
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,775
apple, and I've got my plant-based
mayonnaise here that I've just made
312
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,775
from the aquafaba of the chickpeas.
313
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,255
Charlie's looking very organised.
He has not stopped.
314
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,095
I think Charlie's just turned up the
heat on this kitchen another notch.
315
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,975
On dessert, Molly's making good
progress on her opera baked Alaska.
316
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,335
Got my sponge done.
317
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,455
I've got four ice cream
machines on the go.
318
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,535
I've made a coffee syrup
with coffee liqueur,
319
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,455
just to soak a bit of sponge in.
320
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,615
I think the risk for Molly
is timing.
321
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,575
This is a warm-cold dessert.
322
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,695
You've got frozen ice cream
on a sponge, then you've got
323
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,575
your chocolate and your butter cream
surrounded with an Italian meringue.
324
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,735
Every single layer
has to be perfect.
325
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,815
Just got to keep my head down
326
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,655
for the last 50 minutes now
and crack on.
327
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:11,335
With less than an hour
until service, the 25 guests
328
00:17:11,360 --> 00:17:13,695
have started to arrive.
329
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,615
They're some of the UK's top chefs
and pop-up entrepreneurs.
330
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,495
My parents are Jamaican and Turkish.
331
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,695
It's a very unusual,
I call it Jurkish,
332
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,815
and I do international food,
but with Caribbean inspiration.
333
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,375
I understand what it takes
to make a good pop-up.
334
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,935
It's not easy, you've got a lot of
things to fight against.
335
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,495
Usually, you're in a small space,
336
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,655
you haven't got the right equipment.
You just have to get on with it.
337
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,175
So it's a lot about perseverance
and creativity.
338
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,455
We specialise in outdoor cooking,
339
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,775
particularly American barbecue.
340
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,175
The type of food that you've got
to pour your heart and soul
341
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,175
into to make it taste fantastic.
342
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,935
And I know all of these contestants
today are going to be pouring
343
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,775
their heart and soul
into these dishes,
344
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,215
and I can't wait to taste them.
345
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,015
Just opened my pop-up.
346
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,495
My focus is Asian street food,
a lot of steamed stuff,
347
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,855
I've got baos, I've got dumplings.
348
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,055
Going from restaurant kitchen
to pop-up's completely different.
349
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,175
You got to adapt
to where you're going.
350
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,455
Sometimes you're there for a day,
a weekend, and it's really intense.
351
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,735
So I started as a chef
when I was 14.
352
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,855
I set up my own business
five years ago and we cook
353
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,695
burgers with truffle in.
354
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,775
The chefs have got to
give it their all.
355
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,975
They've got one dish
to really make it sing,
356
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,815
so I think flavour and appearance
is really important for this dish.
357
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,295
I'm the founder of Tatale,
a contemporary pan-African concept.
358
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,415
Something that's really, really
important in a pop-up setting
359
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,855
is the ability to be able
to be really quick, fast,
360
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,695
and get your dishes out there,
361
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,815
so the pressure is going to be on,
it's going to be unrelenting.
362
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,255
With 30 minutes' prep time
still remaining, all five chefs
363
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,895
need to work fast in order
to be ready for service.
364
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,855
25 guests on your own
is a massive amount of work.
365
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,655
Anyone who's ever done
Christmas dinner for more than six
366
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,855
can appreciate just the amount
of work that's going on in here.
367
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,895
Doesn't that look yummy? 30 of them.
368
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,975
I'll make sure I get it nicely set,
369
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,615
back in the fridge,
ready for frying later.
370
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,815
As long as they don't explode
when frying, we're winning.
371
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,535
So...fingers crossed.
372
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,015
With her oxtail in the pressure
cooker, Lauren is pushing hard
373
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,615
to finish the final element
in the prep time -
374
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,175
a Caribbean squash called chocho.
375
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,015
It's going to be pickled.
376
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,295
The oxtail's going to be quite
soft, nice melt-in-the-mouth.
377
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,055
So I wanted something a bit
more sharp to break through it,
378
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,295
as well as keeping the theme
of using Caribbean ingredients.
379
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,735
Just a few little components,
and I'll leave my meat till last
380
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,415
cos that needs to be soft.
381
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,575
With service fast approaching,
Tommy still needs to roll out
382
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,695
and cut 25 flatbreads.
383
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,935
Making the dough is one thing.
384
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,255
Rolling them all perfectly
round without a cutter
385
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,575
is really tricky.
386
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,095
There's a lot of maintenance
behind it, a lot of rolling.
387
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:09,695
And once they are cooked,
I'm then going to brush them
388
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,975
in the beef dripping.
389
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,495
That's a lot of flatbread to do,
it really is,
390
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,415
especially if you're going to add
all that beef flavour to it as well.
391
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,335
This is a really tricky
task he's set himself here.
392
00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:25,695
Charlie is also battling to finish
the dough for his bao buns.
393
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:26,935
Got a few things to do.
394
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,615
30 bao buns to roll, so just trying
to get them all done in time,
395
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,975
leave them with enough time
to prove again.
396
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,535
You want a nice fluffy bao bun,
397
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,575
fluffy enough to put
your head on like a pillow.
398
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,815
Then, while they're proving,
I've got to round off all
399
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,055
the other items of the dish,
head down and crack on.
400
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,535
Molly's coffee ice cream is churned,
401
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,295
and opera cake soaked
in coffee liqueur,
402
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,575
but she still needs to make
the all-important Italian meringue
403
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,495
to cover the dessert.
404
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,935
My meringue is the last
job on my prep list.
405
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,015
You've got to get the Italian
meringue absolutely spot on.
406
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,055
If the meringue is wrong in any way,
the temperature of the cooked sugar,
407
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,175
this meringue could break down quite
easily when she begins torching it.
408
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,175
Plenty of time for it
to cool down naturally,
409
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,415
make sure it's as firm as possible.
410
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,055
Erm, that's the plan, anyway.
411
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:30,215
James, Lauren, you're going to be
serving your dishes first, OK? Oui.
412
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,095
Lauren and James now have just
ten minutes to finish cooking
413
00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:36,815
and serve their dishes.
414
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,255
I'm going to have to fry off
prawn balls, garnish them
415
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,055
with furikake, which is sesame,
416
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,335
little bit of nori,
some red pepper flake.
417
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,055
James, he's got a very large prawn
ball wrapped in that beautiful
418
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,815
pastry, deep-fried.
419
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,335
He's got to make sure
that they're cooked are just right.
420
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:58,015
If those prawn balls are not
cooked, he's in big trouble.
421
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,775
For Lauren, everything
now rests on her oxtail
422
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,735
being cooked to perfection.
423
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,655
Yes, yes, yes!
424
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,375
Lauren is absolutely delighted
her oxtail is just melting,
425
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:13,855
falling off the bone.
426
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,495
I think my main worry was the meat,
because it's something that usually
427
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,535
takes me four hours. So happy.
Really hot, burning my fingers,
428
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,575
but it'll be worth it in the end.
429
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,735
Right, chefs, you've got four
minutes before your first plates
430
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,335
leave the kitchen. Are you two
working together? Yes, Chef.
431
00:22:33,360 --> 00:22:35,575
How long have you got on that,
Lauren? Give me one minute,
432
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,695
One minute? Yeah, oui. Ready.
433
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,855
James is making "not prawn toast",
434
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,775
so it's jalapeno and gochujang prawn
435
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,735
wrapped in crispy pastry.
436
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,575
Holding well.
437
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,255
It should be super-tasty.
I'm excited.
438
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,135
You want them to be a bit like,
you know...
439
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,775
The toast element is that
crispy pastry. Yeah...
440
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,095
Really looking forward to that.
441
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:02,295
Your bandaged prawn balls,
are they all right?
442
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:03,855
My mummy prawn balls, yeah.
443
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,455
They're like The Mummy, yeah.
They're good.
444
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,135
Prawn head and ginger mayo.
445
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,655
I want that really punchy
shellfish flavour.
446
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,015
Katsu chilli sauce,
447
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,375
I want that punch, but I want
to be reminded that it's katsu.
448
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,455
Oh, whoa!
449
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,215
Got too excited.
450
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,255
We need to keep rolling.
451
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,415
Just had a little accident. Give me
30 seconds there. Yeah, no problem.
452
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,535
There's gochujang, which is Korean,
453
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,095
we've got furikake and katsu,
which is Japanese.
454
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:38,855
It's a little bit
all over the place.
455
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,655
Hopefully it's balanced enough
that it's going to work.
456
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,495
They are very attractive plates.
457
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,455
Very attractive. Very different.
458
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,495
Service!
459
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,415
Service, please!
460
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,895
I'm very happy. I would order that.
461
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,815
They're tricky little things
to put together,
462
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:09,295
so I hope they can see the skill
and the work that's gone into it.
463
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,335
James's not prawn toast
was delicious, really unique,
464
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:14,215
I haven't had anything
like that before.
465
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,455
The filo pastry that wrapped
the prawn was really crispy,
466
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,055
really strong in prawn flavour.
Yeah, it's delicious.
467
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,375
I'm liking a lot.
468
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,935
The pastry was very crispy.
469
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,495
The prawn head and ginger
mayo were amazing.
470
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,935
The katsu,
which was a katsu and chilli,
471
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,215
I like spice, so for me it was good.
472
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,375
Predominantly, I could
taste the prawn head,
473
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,655
which is a nice flavour.
474
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,415
The wakame relish
on the side lifted the whole
475
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,015
dish completely. I got crisp,
476
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,575
I got texture, I got prawn flavour.
I genuinely love that dish.
477
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,215
The prawn ball, that's delicious,
really good flavour, and I love
478
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,575
the pastry on the outside.
479
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,015
I love the mayonnaise on top,
love the presentation.
480
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,575
Really liking this a lot.
481
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,495
We always knew James had technical
ability and we always knew
482
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,415
he had creativity, but this time
he has really brought some
483
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,455
fantastic flavours together.
484
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,295
First table's up, now we've got
485
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,855
another table of four, guys, all
right? Yes, Chef. Let's go, Lauren.
486
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,415
How long, Lauren?
A minute and a half. Oui.
487
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,335
I love the sound of this dish.
488
00:25:14,360 --> 00:25:18,095
Braised oxtail should
be unctuous and soft.
489
00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:20,175
Are you happy with the way
the oxtail's cooked?
490
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,455
Very happy. Oh, that's nice, Lauren!
491
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,095
This is a Jamaican-inspired
dish here.
492
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:29,775
The kidney bean puree,
I can't wait to try that out.
493
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,535
It sounds very street food-style
as well, so I'll be excited to see
494
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,455
what it's like on the plate.
495
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,255
And that's the rice going
on the base there, yeah? Yeah.
496
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,975
Bone goes on top and that's it?
And that's it. And then we've
497
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,295
got the crisps on the side.
498
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,015
All right, guys, nearly there,
final push.
499
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,455
Bone marrow cassava CI'iSpS,
500
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,775
I want to taste bone marrow,
because if you're going to say that
501
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,855
that's what it is...
502
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,255
Lauren, do you reckon you've got
the winning dish there?
503
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,015
I think it's only best
you think that way.
504
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,175
Let's go. Come on, guys.
Get these last few tables out,
505
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,775
customers are waiting.
506
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,815
Service!
SHE LAUGHS
507
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,975
Let's go. Brilliant job!
508
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,455
BOTH: Ooh! Did it!
509
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,055
Well done.
510
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,895
So the dish is exactly what
I wanted it to be - there's spice,
511
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,615
there's, like, earthy tones
through the oxtail,
512
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,495
then I've got a bit of pickle,
crunch, so I'm happy with that,
513
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,655
and I hope they feel the same.
514
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,095
The oxtail is cooked really well.
515
00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:34,455
It's really soft and falling
off the bone, as it should be.
516
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,335
I think the chef did a really good
job to include some spicy taste
517
00:26:38,360 --> 00:26:41,975
in the oxtail. Plus, they have
this pickled chocho on top,
518
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,055
which is a really good idea.
519
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,455
These are literally the best
cassava chips I've ever tasted.
520
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,535
The kidney bean puree, I loved that,
521
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:51,895
I just wanted more of it.
522
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,695
Overall, I thought
it was a good dish.
523
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,695
Quite liked the coconut
flavour of the rice.
524
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,135
The oxtail is soft,
and it's unctuous,
525
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,535
and it's cooked really well
in that pressure cooker.
526
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,055
She's used the Scotch bonnet quite
well, and it's bringing a little bit
527
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,095
of heat to it, but not too much.
528
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:11,655
These little cassava chips
on the side, great idea,
529
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,295
and I love the fact that she's
brushed them with a little bit
530
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,775
of beef fat as well. Fantastic!
531
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,895
Next up are Charlie and Tommy.
532
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,055
But with their service
about to start...
533
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,335
I'm running round like
a headless chicken.
534
00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:31,295
...Tommy is nowhere near ready.
535
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,415
Tommy, you're looking
a little bit frantic.
536
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,895
Just the flatbreads took a lot
longer than what I anticipated.
537
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,215
I'm going to do six more.
538
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,095
Are all your sides done?
539
00:27:42,120 --> 00:27:44,855
I need to finish my coleslaw,
fry my shallot rings.
540
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,535
Obviously, cook my beef.
541
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,215
Uh-oh! So there's bit to do.
542
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,775
Whoa! I've got a lot to do,
543
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,615
I'm definitely behind. Charlie,
544
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,775
what have you got left to do?
I've got my buns on to steam,
545
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,615
I've got my shallots crisping up.
546
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,415
Pickled cabbage is done
and celeriac slaw's in the fridge,
547
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,615
so I'm looking good.
You are ready to go! Oui.
548
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,135
You can't cook a few flatbreads
while you're at it, could you?
549
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,615
HE LAUGHS
550
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,295
How many you got left to do, Tommy,
is that your last few?
551
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,015
Yeah, just cooking
these last guys off now.
552
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,095
Up against it. To the wire.
553
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,775
Tommy, he's got 20-odd steaks to
get seared, cooked, rested and cut
554
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,775
before he can serve.
That's a lot of work for one chef.
555
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,455
20 steaks, it's definitely
a challenge. There's a lot of meat.
556
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,895
I just want to make sure
they're all beautifully cooked.
557
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,735
Remember, you two have got to
serve at the same time.
558
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,335
Make sure every dish gets
the same attention.
559
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,895
Remember, these guys are voting
560
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,375
on which of you go straight
through to the semifinal.
561
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:44,855
How long do you want to go, Tom?
562
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,375
I'm going to be sort of
three minutes.
563
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,735
Tommy's kebab,
that just sounds amazing,
564
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,135
I love kebabs myself.
565
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,135
There's beef flatbread.
566
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,535
Obviously,
it's going to be home-made.
567
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,175
I'm just hoping it's just soft,
568
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,495
it's just delicious
with that ribeye as well.
569
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,215
Yeah, I'm happy with them.
They're tasty.
570
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,655
I think they'll be OK. I'm happy.
571
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,215
I'd like the ribeye
to be cooked medium at most.
572
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,535
Medium rare, ideally.
573
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,015
Tommy, happy with the beef?
574
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,215
I'm happy with the cooking of it.
Rare? It's medium rare.
575
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,015
Tom, how long until you're up
on the first five?
576
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,295
I'll be two minutes, Chef.
577
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,975
Yeah, two minutes
are good for me, Chef.
578
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,535
Thai-inspired coleslaw,
that quite intrigues me.
579
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,335
Crispy and pickled shallot rings,
I want a nice crisp.
580
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,695
Obviously, that's where your
texture's coming from.
581
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,775
And nice a pickle to cut through
the fattiness of the ribeye.
582
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,015
Chillies.
583
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,055
Tommy, what have you got
left to do?
584
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,775
So I'm just going to
add my mayonnaise.
585
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,215
Right, you need to hurry up
cos he's finished. OK.
586
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,055
Anything else?
587
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,135
Coriander, and then that's it.
588
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,135
Right, if you're ready,
call service. Service, please!
589
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,375
Very tough, did a lot there.
590
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,055
There's a lot of stuff
to get on the plate.
591
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,095
Things could have been better
but, overall, I'm quite happy.
592
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,455
The ribeye itself tastes
really on point.
593
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,735
It's very tender,
it's not overly cooked,
594
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,695
and I can taste
the Thai-inspired coleslaw.
595
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,215
I think the shio koji marinade,
596
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,255
I think that's pretty inspired,
actually.
597
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,695
I mean, I've not seen that before,
598
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,095
and I think that works
really great with ribeye.
599
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,735
So I think the shallot rings
worked really well cos that gave
600
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,015
a crispy element to the dish.
601
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,295
Pickled chillies,
again, that's a nice touch.
602
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,615
All in all, it's well-balanced,
it's good.
603
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,375
The beef is cooked well.
604
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,855
Textures of the different vegetables
and the pickles come through great.
605
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,815
But, unfortunately,
the overall flavour is burnt,
606
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,535
and it's from the flatbread.
607
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,695
Balance of flavours was quite good.
608
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,615
Just needs to be something
different holding it together.
609
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,655
There's great charring
on the meat and there's good cumin
610
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,015
through the bread as well.
611
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,055
I'm getting the crunch
of the shallots.
612
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,375
I like the pickled chillies,
I love the coleslaw.
613
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,335
I actually like this, I really do.
614
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,535
Right, we're going
to pick it up now.
615
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,495
At the same time, OK?
Oui! Right? Let's go, come on.
616
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,855
How long, please, Tommy?
Two minutes. Yeah.
617
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,255
Charlie's mushroom and jackfruit
bao sounds amazing!
618
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,735
Jackfruit, how does it taste? Good.
619
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,015
I've got the young tinned jackfruit,
I've got the fresh whole jackfruit,
620
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,895
and then I've also got the oyster
mushroom in there all together,
621
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,615
so I like the texture contrast
between all three.
622
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,695
Do you think
he's made his own bao bun?
623
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,975
Because that's quite difficult
en masse.
624
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:39,735
This is
MasterChef: The Professionals.
625
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:40,815
SHE LAUGHS
626
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,455
Charlie has made their own
bun, for sure.
627
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,135
How fluffy are they?
Fluffy as a pillow?
628
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,535
They're fluffy as a pillow.
629
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,175
It's a mustard slaw, so we're going
to have a vinegar taste in there.
630
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,255
We've got pickled red cabbage.
631
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:59,095
I hope the paprika crispy onions
give it some texture as well,
632
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,335
because that's all very soft.
633
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,015
Come on, last push!
634
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,255
I love a cola barbecue sauce,
but it is very sweet.
635
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,055
I think if Charlie pulls this off,
I think it's going to be a good one.
636
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,175
If Charlie doesn't pull this off,
it could be a disaster.
637
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,775
We're rooting for you, Charlie.
Come on, you got this.
638
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,055
Come on, boys, let's go.
639
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,335
Come on, come on, come on.
Customers are waiting.
640
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:25,895
Service, please!
641
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,535
Fairly happy. I think it
sings street food pop-up.
642
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:36,055
Pickled red cabbage adds the
sharpness that it really needs,
643
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,455
and then your crispy onions
just to kind of give it
644
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:39,615
that texture as well.
645
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,935
I really liked the barbecue
sauce, it was nice and sweet
646
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,375
with the cola. The mushroom and
647
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,975
jackfruit had quite a good, beefy
texture for a vegan dish.
648
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,815
I thought that the celeriac slaw
was delicious and the bao itself
649
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,375
was clearly made from scratch,
650
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,695
it was very fluffy and
a really good effort overall.
651
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,735
The jackfruit is great -
sweet, sour.
652
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,615
Love the little cabbage on the top.
653
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,975
The bao bun is actually fabulous,
beautiful and soft.
654
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,215
That's sensational.
655
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,215
That cola barbecue, sort of smoky,
but properly sweet.
656
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,495
This is good.
657
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,415
Last to serve is Molly,
658
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,375
but she's run into a problem
with her Italian meringue.
659
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,975
It's dropped cos it's been sat,
the air's dropped out of it
660
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,615
and it wouldn't work
if I was to pipe it on now, so...
661
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:32,055
Molly's meringue has not worked.
She's not going to use it,
662
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,495
she's thrown it away
and she's started again.
663
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,655
Said a prayer to the meringue gods.
664
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,015
Molly is making opera cake
baked Alaska,
665
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,735
topped with coffee ice cream
and Italian meringue.
666
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:48,855
Sounds like a technical dessert.
667
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,095
You've got different
temperatures going on.
668
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,975
There's a danger that it
might kind of fall apart.
669
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,415
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
670
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,335
You're the last course!
671
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,415
The ice cream has got to sit and not
melt before it hits the table.
672
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,855
You don't do things by halves,
kid, do you? Eh?
673
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,615
That meringue needs to be standing
very pert above everything.
674
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,135
And if it's not,
that might be disappointing.
675
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,935
Second attempt of meringue made,
it all comes down
676
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,655
to whether it holds
its shape once piped.
677
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,655
Nice. Well done.
678
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,375
God, you don't half make some work
for yourself, you know that?
679
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:28,775
Somebody get Lauren, please.
680
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,215
Lauren, would you mind?
681
00:34:31,240 --> 00:34:35,335
It's now a race to plate
all of her desserts
682
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,375
before the ice cream melts.
683
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,415
Right, we're going to do
two tables together.
684
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,495
A four and a three, OK? Yeah.
685
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:49,695
Is that ice cream OK, Molly?
Yeah.
686
00:34:49,720 --> 00:34:51,095
It will be if I move fast enough.
687
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,895
Yeah, you need to get a move on
or it's going to be melting.
688
00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:00,935
Oh! we'll fix that.
689
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,535
Oh, aye, aye!
690
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,495
Come on, Molly, hold it together.
691
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:15,975
Service, please.
692
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,295
Thank you, Lauren. You're welcome.
693
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,775
Molly, that looked tough.
694
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,015
It better taste good! It will.
695
00:35:29,720 --> 00:35:31,415
That were very, very hard.
696
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,455
I think every obstacle that could
have come up against me did.
697
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,055
I love the ice cream. The opera
cake, the layers could have been
698
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,375
more defined and the cake itself was
a little bit dry, but the overall
699
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,415
flavour was great.
700
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,215
It was a nice surprise
to have the ice cream
701
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:48,575
underneath the meringue.
702
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,055
The chocolate ganache
definitely came through.
703
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,735
The meringue could have been done,
well, better.
704
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,615
Other than that, I think
Molly's done quite well
705
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,855
to get everything out.
706
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,895
I think this is
an amazing achievement
707
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,415
for two and a half hours.
708
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,055
Unfortunately,
the meringue hasn't worked.
709
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,055
The second batch of meringue
has started to split
710
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,135
and that's just all
running off the side.
711
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:15,055
It's not the smartest presentation,
but it does taste good.
712
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,055
I think Molly's been
incredibly ambitious.
713
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:24,415
After a tough day in the kitchen,
the MasterChef pop-up is now over.
714
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,695
Five great chefs, you know,
and I'm amazed by their ambition.
715
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:33,455
No-one gave themselves
an easy time there, and there
716
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,015
were some stunning dishes.
717
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,055
I can honestly say I went
out there and did everything
718
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,055
I could today,
put it all on a plate.
719
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,895
Yeah, I think I did myself proud.
720
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,535
I really hope that I've done enough
to get that pass because, honestly,
721
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,175
it means so much
and it just validates
722
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,735
that they enjoyed the food.
723
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,655
I was caught by surprise
by the workload,
724
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,095
didn't particularly go to plan.
725
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,735
But as a whole, it went well.
726
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,575
I feel just on top of the world.
727
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:06,335
Like, to feed the people that
I fed today, incredible day,
728
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,015
an incredible venue,
incredible everything.
729
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,055
I'm really happy
with how today went.
730
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,375
For me, right now, everything
is eyes on the semifinals.
731
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,495
Just want to keep going
as far as I can.
732
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,295
It's all about the guests now.
733
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,255
We'll count up their votes
and let's see which chef
734
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,135
is going to be sailing straight
through to our semifinal.
735
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,335
Great to see you back in our
kitchen, chefs. I've had glowing
736
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,735
reports back from these two,
from your pop-up, some great food,
737
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,255
but now the competition
heats up even more.
738
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,415
As you know, we asked our guests
to vote for their favourite dish
739
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,855
and that chef will go straight
through to our semifinals.
740
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,055
We have counted those votes.
741
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,255
The chef that is going
straight through is...
742
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,335
...James.
743
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,215
Congratulations!
744
00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:29,975
Our guests absolutely loved it.
745
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,575
It was a great dish.
Well done, you.
746
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,015
Congratulations. Thank you.
747
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,975
Off you go. We'll see you in the
semifinals. Very well done.
748
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,375
- Good luck, guys.
- Well done, James.
749
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,255
Great comeback.
Great comeback. Well done.
750
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,215
Mad! Semifinals.
751
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:52,855
That's dead cool!
752
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,135
I'm feeling great.
753
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,335
Pass at this stage is
an absolute game changer.
754
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,935
For you remaining four,
you've got a job to do.
755
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,095
The odds have now shortened.
756
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:11,575
We've set you a brief.
757
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,135
We want you to give us
your last dish on Earth.
758
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,455
If you could only have
one more plate of food,
759
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:21,975
what would it be?
760
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,455
Who would you share it with?
761
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,095
There are only three places
left in the semifinal.
762
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,895
One of you will be
leaving the competition.
763
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:36,255
One hour and 45 minutes for a dish
that will secure your place
764
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,095
in a MasterChef semifinal.
765
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:39,695
Chefs, off you go.
766
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:48,415
I think everyone wanted
to have the pass.
767
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,055
But I'm OK with not having it.
768
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:51,935
It's OK, we've got to cook again.
769
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,135
I knew it was coming, to be honest,
770
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,895
but thankfully,
I've got a second chance today
771
00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,295
and hopefully I'll do well.
772
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,615
Got a lot to show today
in this dish, for sure.
773
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,615
I'm looking forward
to cooking my dish.
774
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,855
It's all based around Cornwall,
so that to me is quite important.
775
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,815
So, your last dish ever.
776
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,495
What's it going to be?
Cornish turbot.
777
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:16,695
I'm going to steam it in
778
00:40:16,720 --> 00:40:18,535
a Cornish sparkling wine
and then finish it with
779
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:19,975
Cornish Clotted cream.
780
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,895
That's then going to be served
with fennel that I've pickled
781
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,095
with a bit of honey, caviar on top,
and then asparagus that I'm cooking
782
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:27,895
in asparagus juice and seaweed.
783
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,815
Naturally, being from Cornwall,
this is my tribute dish
784
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,895
to where I come from.
Home is everything to me.
785
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,255
Who are you sharing it with?
786
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,575
I would share this dish with my dad.
My dad's a fussy eater.
787
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,655
He doesn't like anything
unless it's protein and potatoes.
788
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,495
So with a few additional extras
that I've added on here,
789
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,375
this is a dish that
he would actually enjoy.
790
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,215
You know what's at stake, Charlie.
How hungry are you?
791
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:46,775
I'm really hungry.
792
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:48,975
I think right now, it's a matter
of who wants it more,
793
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,455
and I think I want it the most.
794
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,895
Charlie's dish is all about
ingredients from Cornwall.
795
00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,615
The turbot is being steamed.
796
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:00,975
It's got aromatics.
797
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,575
It's got fennel and lemon.
798
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:05,375
As it's cooking,
799
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:09,095
the fish will take on some of
those wonderful aromatics.
800
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,055
He's got to make sure he doesn't
overcook it because the turbot
801
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,015
will either dry out
or just fall apart.
802
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,015
Turbot is considered the king
of the sea when it comes to fish.
803
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,535
So I've got to do that justice.
804
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,055
We've got cream in the sauce.
805
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,095
It's just beautiful and rich.
806
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,495
I opened the fridge and it fell out!
807
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,415
Don't spill any more, you're going
to run out of sauce. Yeah, oui!
808
00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:35,975
He's got some potato which he's
roasted in the oven in duck fat.
809
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,015
He's also got asparagus spears.
810
00:41:40,240 --> 00:41:42,735
Love the sound of this dish.
811
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:43,975
OK.
812
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,055
It means a lot to me, this dish,
813
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:51,815
and there's a lot riding on it
in terms of my family.
814
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,375
Molly, tell us, what's your last
dish on Earth going to be?
815
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,175
My final dish is a take
on an Irish chowder.
816
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,935
I'm going to serve it with Irish
soda bread and a prawn head butter.
817
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,735
So why would your last dish
be Irish inspired?
818
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,215
I've got a massive Irish family.
819
00:42:11,240 --> 00:42:13,655
There's loads of us and
it means a lot to me.
820
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,095
And I'm doing it for
my Uncle Anthony
821
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,975
because that were his favourite
dish that he used to have
822
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,135
when we'd go over there.
823
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:22,895
He used to tell me
when I was growing up,
824
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,375
"Make sure you follow your cooking,"
825
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,055
so to be able to cook him
this dish today,
826
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:27,735
I'd love to show him what I've done.
827
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,895
Hopefully he'll see that I've
improved on my refinement
828
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:31,255
and my plating.
829
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,535
Molly's dish is based around
a chowder. Pan-fried cod loin,
830
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,895
which she has cut into
beautiful pieces.
831
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,495
She's curing those in a salt
and sugar mix with a little bit
832
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,175
of lemon zest in there, too.
833
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,815
These look lovely. Pretty happy.
834
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,375
We also got some lovely
large prawns.
835
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,375
She's got steamed mussels,
then using the liquid
836
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,535
of that to make her mussel veloute.
837
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:59,215
And then she's going to split it
with some dill oil.
838
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:06,215
I hope she captures the flavours
of a chowder, rich in seafood,
839
00:43:06,240 --> 00:43:09,175
because a chowder is all about
the flavours that develop
840
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,255
as everything is cooking together.
841
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,975
By cooking them separately,
you can almost lose the essence
842
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,735
of all those delicious flavours
of seafood coming together.
843
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,295
Right, chefs, you've got
35 minutes remaining.
844
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:22,415
35.
845
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:25,815
Pop-up was a big challenge.
846
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,335
Things didn't go to plan.
847
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,455
I really feel like I need
to get a ten out of ten
848
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,135
in order to wow the judges.
849
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:35,855
I don't want to give them a mediocre
dish because I'll be going home.
850
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,455
So, Tommy, what are you doing?
851
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,015
So I thought long and hard
about this.
852
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,255
It would have to be a roast dinner.
I love a roast dinner.
853
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:43,855
It brings the family together.
854
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:45,935
What's your take on this
roast dinner, then?
855
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,015
So today, I'm doing a roast pork
belly, spiralised potato
856
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:50,935
to be cooked in some pork fat.
857
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,695
A pork and sage stuffing,
cauliflower truffle cheese.
858
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:55,415
There's a pork sauce as well,
and our apple compote.
859
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:56,815
Who are you sharing it with?
860
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,655
And so I've chose my son
to be my special guest today.
861
00:43:58,680 --> 00:43:59,975
He loves a roast dinner.
862
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,255
He gets so messy, you know, he has
everything. He loves it all.
863
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:03,935
So it'd be my pleasure
to cook for him.
864
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:07,335
Hopefully be the best roast dinner
you've ever had. That's what I want.
865
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,575
Tommy's cooking us roast pork belly.
866
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,335
Hope we've got some crunchy
crackling on the outside.
867
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,055
Because I've only got
so little oil in a pan
868
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,815
and it's quite a big piece of pork,
869
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:24,095
it's only able to crisp up
a small amount of the pork.
870
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:28,495
I'm currently thinking
what I can do to make it better.
871
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,935
We've got pork and sage stuffing.
872
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,775
The potato, he's making
a large ribbon of it,
873
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,935
and then he's going to
con fit it in pork fat.
874
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,495
WHISPERS: Wow.
875
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,815
On the side is a cauliflower
and truffle cheese dish.
876
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,455
That sounds delicious.
877
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,575
A roast dinner, typically,
in any household,
878
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,615
takes three to four hours.
879
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,535
I don't have that time today,
so I need to really focus in
880
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:58,215
and get everything done
as quickly as possible.
881
00:44:58,240 --> 00:45:01,535
Pastry made sense just based on
my inspiration for the dish.
882
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,815
And also I haven't done pastry
since the first round,
883
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:08,895
so I thought,
"Why not take the risk?"
884
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,015
I've got a lot of elements
that need to set.
885
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:16,735
I will be creating a cardamom and
orange panna cotta brulee-type
886
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:21,895
dessert with a tonka bean ice cream,
poached apricots, pistachio crumb
887
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:23,375
and a nut brittle.
888
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,055
My dad is, like,
my biggest supporter,
889
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,095
very much so in, like,
just my chef career.
890
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:28,415
He's got a sweet tooth.
891
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,735
As a child, he used to always eat
these, like, nut brittle snacks.
892
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,895
So I thought the last meal on earth,
why not share something with him...
893
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,855
Yeah. ..and incorporate
that into a dessert?
894
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,335
Lauren's cooking effectively
a creme brulee recipe,
895
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,615
cos it's got eggs in it, but
she's also added gelatine into it
896
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,095
so that she can set it so that
when she lifts the cutter off,
897
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:50,295
it'll stay firm.
898
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,095
It needs the taste of
the cardamom and the orange,
899
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,615
and it needs to be nice and smooth.
900
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,135
So the reason I've got
a panna cotta brulee mashup
901
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,695
is because I wanted to
amalgamate the two textures.
902
00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:08,015
We've got rum with apricots,
the wonderful cashew nut brittle,
903
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,215
hopefully not too bitter
with the caramel.
904
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,735
That's the nut brittle, is it? Yes.
905
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,495
Tonka bean ice cream. We want the
vanilla notes of that tonka bean
906
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,415
singing through it.
907
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,215
I hope Lauren delivers this dish
908
00:46:21,240 --> 00:46:23,695
because I am loving
the flavours of it.
909
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,415
You've got five minutes left, chefs.
910
00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:35,495
I'm just getting
all my final bits done now,
911
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,055
to make sure it's nice and pretty.
912
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,375
Come on, Charlie.
Let's get this in and on and out.
913
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:46,695
Crackling's not crackled, has it?
914
00:46:46,720 --> 00:46:48,895
No, it's not worked today,
which is a shame.
915
00:46:50,720 --> 00:46:53,215
Finishing in 30 seconds.
916
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,215
Stop shaking!
917
00:46:58,240 --> 00:46:59,655
Is that the last thing, Molly?
918
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,415
I've just got to get
my sauce in the jugs.
919
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:02,775
Then do it, Molly, please.
920
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,775
Guys, you're running out of time.
Get these dishes finished now.
921
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,455
That's it.
Time is well and truly up.
922
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:17,855
Stop. Thank you.
923
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,655
Cooking for a place
in the semifinals,
924
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,375
Charlie's dish is
Cornish steamed turbot
925
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,295
served with a roasted potato,
926
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,375
topped with anchovy butter,
927
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,895
honey, pickled fennel and caviar,
928
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,655
asparagus cooked
in a seaweed butter emulsion
929
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,175
and a Cornish clotted cream
and champagne sauce
930
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,975
split with dill oil.
931
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,615
Wow.
Charlie, beautiful presentation.
932
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:04,495
That turbot, beautifully
steamed, just falls apart.
933
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,455
The roasted potato with
that fennel is delightful,
934
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,455
and then lovely caviar
over the top.
935
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,535
The sauce, you've got so much
of the sparkling wine in there,
936
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,935
it's got the sharpness
running through it.
937
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,615
Rich with the clotted cream.
938
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,055
I think you've done Cornwall proud.
939
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,775
Thank you, Chef.
940
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,535
That asparagus is
absolutely delightful
941
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,695
because you've got
seaweed coating it,
942
00:48:26,720 --> 00:48:28,535
so it's giving it
a natural saltiness.
943
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,855
I love this fennel
that's pickled and sweet.
944
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,815
I really like that.
That is a delightful dish.
945
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,175
That fish cookery is sublime.
946
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,775
Absolutely delicious.
947
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,215
Beautifully cooked potato.
948
00:48:43,240 --> 00:48:45,735
The sauce is absolutely sensational.
949
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,415
Last meal? Yeah.
950
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,295
I think I'd join you for that.
Delicious.
951
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,135
I put a lot of love into this dish,
and it's just home for me.
952
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,015
And for them to say I did
Cornwall proud is, er...
953
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,095
...yeah, that's something.
954
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,455
Happy? Yeah. Oh, man...
955
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:09,855
WHISPERS: It's my best one.
956
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,335
Molly has served her take
on an Irish chowder.
957
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,775
Pan-fried cod,
958
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,615
prawns, steamed mussels,
959
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:25,295
potatoes and samphire
in a mussel veloute
960
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:27,735
split with dill oil,
961
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:32,095
served with Irish soda bread
and a prawn head butter.
962
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:38,615
Fish is cooked well.
963
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,375
My cod's flaking apart.
964
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,575
My issues would be skin
on those salad potatoes.
965
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,215
They're not new potatoes,
so that's a tough, old skin.
966
00:49:46,240 --> 00:49:47,775
Take it off.
967
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,975
And the skin on the cod,
you will never crisp that up
968
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,175
unless you take it off
and cook it separately.
969
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,775
I'm disappointed
with my piece of cod.
970
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,895
Mine's actually cooked
on the skin quite badly.
971
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,935
It's leaving that
bitter, burnt flavour.
972
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:02,935
But I love the way
the mussels are cooked.
973
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:04,855
The prawn is beautifully cooked.
974
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,575
The sauce, I wish it packed more
of the seafood flavours
975
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,575
that you get in a chowder
when it's all cooked together.
976
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,135
The soda bread is nice.
977
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:13,975
I think it's missing a bit
of seasoning in there.
978
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,055
Prawn head butter needs more oomph.
979
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,895
There are some highs and lows
in this dish, for me, Molly.
980
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,455
A chowder is when the fish
is cooked in it, and it all absorbs
981
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,775
the flavours. Everything's
all cooked separately
982
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,895
and when you put it together,
it has to become one,
983
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,855
and it's not quite becoming one.
984
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,215
There's things that were picked
up on that I knew were coming.
985
00:50:36,240 --> 00:50:39,135
It's a shame, but I just tried
to refine it a bit, you know?
986
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,495
So, yeah.
987
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:49,415
Tommy's dish is roast pork belly
with a pork and sage stuffed
988
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:54,295
cabbage, spiralised potato
deep-fried in pork fat,
989
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,495
cauliflower truffle cheese,
990
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,735
carrot and swede crush,
991
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,975
apple compote and a pork sauce.
992
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:05,975
Were we supposed to have
some crackling?
993
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,855
Unfortunately,
it's not worked today,
994
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:09,375
so I've decided to take it off.
995
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,175
Pork, I don't mind it pink,
but I think another 15, 20 minutes
996
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:19,775
just to tenderise it a bit more.
997
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:21,815
I love the take on
apple sauce on there
998
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,095
and how it's been
diced so perfectly.
999
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,095
There's still a bit
of texture in it.
1000
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,375
To make the con fit potato
the way you did,
1001
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,415
it's beautiful.
It's got the crunch.
1002
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,415
And, honestly, I could do
with a bowl of those on its own.
1003
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,935
That pork is a little
too pink for me,
1004
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,095
but your cauliflower
cheese is delightful.
1005
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,095
And the truffle
on the top is heady.
1006
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:45,095
That is seriously creamy,
rich, indulgent.
1007
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:47,895
The sauce, there is a slight
sharpness and a meatiness
1008
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:49,215
to it that I'm really enjoying.
1009
00:51:49,240 --> 00:51:50,775
Very good.
1010
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,415
Pork that looks like this will
always divide the audience.
1011
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,295
Is it cooked? Yes, it is.
It is cooked.
1012
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,495
Your swede and carrots,
really delicious.
1013
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:01,095
Love the little pork stuffing ball
with the sage running through that.
1014
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,735
If I was served this roast
dinner anywhere in this country,
1015
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,495
I'd be very, very happy,
1016
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,615
cos that is
a roast dinner elevated.
1017
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:09,895
Well done. Thank you so much.
1018
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,055
There was a few errors
on my dish today.
1019
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:15,775
The pork divided the room.
1020
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,735
Marcus seemed to really enjoy it,
which really picked me up.
1021
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,375
I needed to hear that.
1022
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:28,855
Last up is Lauren.
1023
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,855
She has made an orange and cardamom
creme brulee panna cotta
1024
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,455
with rum-poached apricots,
1025
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:37,495
a cashew nut brittle,
1026
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,055
pistachio crumb
1027
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,135
and tonka bean ice cream.
1028
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,855
Love the creaminess
of the creme brulee.
1029
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,815
Delicious. Love the little
caramelisation on the top of that.
1030
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,695
The tonka bean ice cream,
it's rich, it's delicious,
1031
00:52:55,720 --> 00:52:57,815
tastes of tonka bean.
But that brittle,
1032
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,095
it's so bitter
cos the sugar, it's black.
1033
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,655
I really struggled to eat that.
1034
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,695
I'm intrigued by that creme
brulee panna cotta.
1035
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:09,495
It's like a set custard with
an absolute ton of vanilla in it.
1036
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,495
Apricots I like because that rum
in there has enhanced it,
1037
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,175
giving it some more sweetness.
1038
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,055
I love that ice cream.
1039
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:20,055
You have taken the brittle too far,
but I'm very happy with this.
1040
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,095
Well done.
Thank you.
1041
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,975
The creme brulee,
the texture is smooth.
1042
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:28,415
I like that you managed
to get the orange flavour
1043
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:29,815
through that as well.
1044
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,735
And I love that you managed
to capture the flavours
1045
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,055
of the pistachio in that crumb.
1046
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,175
The brittle,
it is overcooked, it's bitter.
1047
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:42,095
That aside, I've enjoyed
everything else on this plate.
1048
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:47,935
I'm OK.
1049
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,135
I made a stupid mistake.
1050
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,215
And it's like, "Now is when you
want to do that? Really, Lauren?"
1051
00:53:53,240 --> 00:53:55,175
Like...
1052
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:56,535
So, yeah, it's annoying,
1053
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,055
but I was happy that the rest
of the dish worked out.
1054
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,815
That was a great cook-off today.
Good food on show.
1055
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,295
Question is, who joins James?
1056
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,215
Big call, chefs. Biggest call
of the competition so far.
1057
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,495
Chef of the day,
there definitely is one,
1058
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,975
and that is Charlie
with his flavours of Cornwall.
1059
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:24,615
Absolutely lovely.
1060
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:28,655
Beautifully executed cooking
that tasted outstanding.
1061
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:31,495
Charlie's in the semifinal
with James.
1062
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,895
I think this is now
very, very difficult
1063
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,855
because you've got
Molly, Lauren and Tommy,
1064
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,215
and all three of them had issues -
1065
00:54:41,240 --> 00:54:43,855
small issues,
but issues nonetheless.
1066
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:49,335
I really don't want to think
that I'll go home today,
1067
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,495
because I really am enjoying it.
1068
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:53,535
I want to go further
in the competition.
1069
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:58,775
It is my first error, so I just hope
that that's taken into account.
1070
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,895
To get through to the semis,
it would mean everything.
1071
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,855
This is all I'm thinking about
all day, every day.
1072
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,575
It does mean a lot to me.
1073
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,295
It'd be cool to get through
but, I don't know,
1074
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:13,375
I think I've had one too many
wobbles now, but we'll see.
1075
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,255
Welcome back, chefs, and well done.
1076
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,215
Just consider for a moment
how far you've come
1077
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:32,095
from the first time we met you,
1078
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:33,975
what you've achieved.
1079
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,255
You should now be considering
this competition
1080
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,375
with a great deal of pride.
1081
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:43,255
Only three of you can go forward
and join James in the semifinal.
1082
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:48,335
The chef leaving us is...
1083
00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:59,895
...Molly.
1084
00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:03,135
Thank you. It has been a joy getting
to know you in this competition.
1085
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,895
And we hope you've enjoyed
the journey.
1086
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:07,695
- Sorry, Molly.
- Thank you.
1087
00:56:07,720 --> 00:56:09,495
Take care, Molly.
1088
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:10,895
WHISPERS: Good luck.
1089
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:13,655
Thank you.
1090
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,455
I'm gutted not to get through.
1091
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:24,855
I am happy because I got
further than I were expecting.
1092
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,615
I put my heart
on the plate every time,
1093
00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,895
built my confidence
more than I could ever expect.
1094
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,655
Just incredible.
And I'll never, ever forget it.
1095
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:37,855
Semifinalists.
1096
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,295
THEY CHEER
1097
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:45,335
James didn't get one of these.
THEY LAUGH
1098
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,655
To make it in the semifinals,
I'm buzzing.
1099
00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:51,255
The stress is really full-on.
1100
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,935
It's a big challenge, but I'm just
excited to smash my next dish.
1101
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,815
It's definitely
getting more difficult.
1102
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,015
I need to be
on point for everything.
1103
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:01,255
I know there's no room for error
1104
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,095
and I'm going to prove
I can do this.
1105
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:09,495
The last two weeks,
my whole life has stopped.
1106
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,935
For me to be here and be able
to call myself a semifinalist...
1107
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:16,855
...I couldn't be prouder.
1108
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:23,095
Next time...
1109
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:26,815
Knockout week continues and
the second group of five chefs
1110
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:30,975
will compete outside the MasterChef
kitchen for the first time...
1111
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,455
Feel like I'm washing me hair.
And I haven't got any.
1112
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:41,655
...before returning to fight for
their place in the semifinals.
1113
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:44,815
I'd say that's probably your best
dish so far in this competition.
