Episode 3
In the second heat, the Skills Tests involve scallops and a cr猫me p芒tissi猫re swiss roll. Then the chefs try to impress the judges with two Signature Dishes that demonstrate their culinary identities.
In tonight鈥檚 second heat, four more professional chefs from around the country attempt to make their mark in the MasterChef kitchen and stake their claim to the coveted title. With their reputations on the line, they face two tense challenges, after which two will progress to this week's quarter-final and two will be sent home.
First they face the infamous Skills Test. Two of them take on Marcus鈥檚 challenge to prepare pan-fried scallops, cauliflower velout茅, croutons and a curry butter. The others face Monica's dessert challenge, a chocolate cr猫me p芒tissi猫re-filled swiss roll served with a raspberry sauce. Each has just 20 minutes to get all the details right.
Then the chefs get the chance to showcase their individual cooking style as they prepare two standout Signature Dishes 鈥� one main and one dessert. This is a chance for the chefs to make up for any mistakes made in the Skills Test and to show the judges what they are made of. Only the two best chefs will retain their places in the competition.
