MasterChef: Episode 1
In the first heat, five amateur cooks compete for two quarter-final places. This year’s competition features a new round in which each cook must showcase their favourite ingredient.
John Torode and Gregg Wallace are looking for the country’s next star chef. Those who make it through to the quarter-final must prove their knowledge and passion for food. The heats have produced four exceptional cooks, but only one of them will make it through today to become a semi-finalist. Initially named Masterchef Goes Large, the series changed it’s name to Masterchef in 2008.
