Under Bench Staples - MasterChef Australia Reaction Podcast

SERVICE! The contestants are off-site in this challenge during nostalgia week and in the kitchens of a Melbourne suburbs institution, Mei Jing.

In two teams they duke it out putting their twists onto classic Chinese restaurant menu dishes... with varying levels of success, and in the judging a whole course gets taken off the bill. Listen in for our thoughts and reaction, plus the dishes we'd SMASH and PASS in this eppie...

Big lamington energy with this one, it's pressure test time in the MasterChef Australia kitchen!

In this episode we speculate over a new drag queen on the scene, Sharon tres-lecki, and we go all size queen judging how each of the contestants cut their sponge. We repeat the oft-delivered advice from many teachers of "read the recipe" and we ponder about how woodwork class in school may ultimately help out in the technical end of cookery.... or maybe it hinders? Listen in to find out...

One challenge, two parts! In this episode the contestants are gifted the luxury of time –– allowing an overnight pause between two stints in the kitchen to really slow cook.

We delve into the majesty of slow-cooked lamb and we urge all and sundry to protect Robbie at all costs. We circle back on the thrills and spills of pasta so far this season and we want to try Brent's confit duck dish immediately.

The ultimate decision lies ahead: do you take less ingredients for more time, or wait it out as time ticks away for the prime ingredients? Well if you've seen this episode you'll know how this Sophie's choice pans out... in this episode we try our best to use math to calculate time which goes abysmally and we think we're in love with Serai in every way imaginable...
