MasterChef Australia 2021 promised us that we’d be served up the best cooks and best food ever and, boy, they were not lying.
As you’ve no doubt seen, the contestants this year have been plating up some of the most remarkable dishes we’ve ever seen and have brought us some pretty amazing backstories too.
In addition to that, the series has given us special appearances from international chefs such as Nigella Lawson, Yotam Ottolenghi, Massimo Bottura and Heston Blumenthal along with beloved local heroes Emelia Jackson, Reynold Poernomo, Poh Ling Yeow and Callum Hann.
The competition has been intense and, sadly, we’ve already said goodbye to many of our favourite contestants, including Trent, YoYo, Minoli and Katrina, Wynona and Conor. We’ve also watched in disbelief as one of the most consistently talented cooks, Therese Lum, went home with her coveted immunity pin still pinned to her apron.
Even though were are more than halfway through the season, there is still so much to look forward to — including second chance week — so naturally, we never want you to miss an episode.
The cooking series is on five nights a week on Network Ten. On Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays you can catch it at 7:30pm AEDT — right after The Project.
On Sunday nights, you can also tune in at 7:30pm AEDT, after The Sunday Project has aired.
A very important date to mark in your diary is the date of the grand finale, in which the remaining three cooks (Pete, Kishwar and Justin) go head to head for the big prize of $250,000! That is all happening on Tuesday, July 13th at 7:30pm.
Of course, if ever you miss an episode you can catch up over at 10Play, as long as you have an active account and while you’re there — why not try your hand at recreating one of the delicious recipes brought to us by the ever-so-talented home chefs?
Happy watching and eating!
