Nicky Whelan Emilia says it is good
Poh says really balanced
n Reece says lots of butter
Chef says the sauce is the hardest. Can take it too far and be too sweet and not far enough will be watery
Jock says sauce is critical and will make you safe or into round 2
Top 2 will be safe bottom 3 go to round 2
Time starts now
Didnt catch how long they had
8 processes on the potato alone

Callum knows he needs to follow that recipe precisely
Ahh 75mins to cook
The dish does look amazing.
Chef says if you mess something up there is no time to redo it with this recipe and time frame
Poh is feeling positive today

Callum is worried now,,,, the chef looks concerned too get this wrong and basically have no hope

Adding some more of a vinegar to rebalance
He is happy now

Emilia has her potatoes out of the waterbath
And into the oven she has a great memory for recipes
Laura passing her potatoes
Slightly behind Emilia
Callum piping his potatoes
Callum piping his potatoes
But not holding its shape
I get the feeling that the airtime is going onto who will be the best mainly - Emilia.
Callum is in trouble.

Susanne Pendock "Shall we taste it" "no, put her automatically through" is the sarcastic answer coming from the chair next to me about Laura's dish.
A decent effort
Finally Callum

poor Callum
Says it is his worst cook so far
No sauce
Pete says as soon as something is off the balance is thrown
They know what happened with the sauce but still miss it
Laura and Emilia made it look so easy
No surprise they are safe

Now Laura, Emilia and Reynald are part of top 5

Callum, Reece and Poh to cook again
1 will go home

So round 2

Must use 1 or more of the core ingredients of the last dish to make a dish
75mins open pantry and garden
Reece using potatoes
He is doing a sweet...mght be safe

75mins open pantry and garden

Some huge potatoes there Reece

Potato creme, crispy potatoes
Cauliflower royal, crisp potatoes
Andy would go to the mushrooms
Callum taking bowls of mushrooms
Andy carrying his basket for him
Took 3 types of mushrooms
Making a prep list
Mushroom benito broth, noodles, egg

Lots of stuff in that mushroom broth
Poh is doing something she says may be really silly
it will be silly Poh. Lol
Beetroot granita
And an icecream, missed the flavour
Making potato dumplings from the live challenge and the butter emulsion from round 1
Also thinking of a chinese mushroom dish

Poh full of doubt
Not doing anything as a result
Well you need to make that decision soon Poh
She’ll figure it out.
looks like poh classic air 3 way dish is in broth lay tonight
oh lord another redemption dish she says

Re: Masterchef week beginning 5/07/20

Jock asking if this redemption dish will send her hone
She is commited to the dumpling dish now
Onto her dough

Smoked chocolate ice cream with Reece
Starting his potato wafers now
Sounds crispy there
Mushroom and noodles sound so simple...hopefully full of flavour

Pete loves noodles
Callum using half regular flour and half buckwheat

Rolling his dough now
Noodles looking good
Taking his roasted mushrooms out and over the hibachi now
30mins left

Poh running around
His broth looks delicious. I’m trying to make Callum safe. Lol
2
Callum makes lovely homestyle hearty food.
Poh rolling her dough
20mins to go now
Ya hibachi grill in play

Callum use it
Have to admit that dough looks cool in 2 colours
Reece surprised how good his potato cream tastes
I’m not sure I like the look of Reeses’s dish.
Plating a test of ratios to taste his dish together

Chocolate is dominating
Doesnt know what to do

Re: Masterchef week beginning 5/07/20

15mins now
Pete asking why he wants to ditch the ice cream
He is going to use it but work on the ratios
Poh still working on dumplings and hasnt done her sauce
Same position as round 1
10 mins
Callum has so much on his bench
Look at Callum’s bench. Wow!
His noodles look good
Made a tester

5mins left
Are there times that you wonder if the contestants have lost the plot? Some are constantly inventing new dishes, yet others (I'm looking at you Poh) are just redoing things that they have done previously in this season or their previous season. I know that Khanh did the same as well. But it is becoming more and more obvious as the season progresses.

Poh having sauce drama
Reece keeping the ice cream

He is plating now

Callum is happy with his dish
Pohs dumplings are done
But she doesnt think the sauce will be ready
Now a burnt butter sauce instead

1minute and her butter is still melting
It's ok. It will be miraculously done by the end.
30 seconds

Time is up

Reece has an abstract dish
Callums looks good


Poh thinks she is done

\ At least she did a dumpling each

Reece first
Pete says it is pretty

And the restraint may be enough
Talking about how Reece has grown
Potato is still crunchy
Andy says and interesting plate
Pete enjoyed it kore than he thought he would
Plating sophisticated and pretty
Jock says right amount of ice cream and granita
