Masterchef: The Professionals - Series 2 - Episode 3

Legendary double Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jnr and vegetable expert and Masterchef veteran Gregg Wallace are joined by Michel's trusted sous chef Monica Galetti as they hunt for a young chef who can make it to the top of the culinary world. In this heat, four chefs face a nail-biting elimination round. In front of the watching Monica and Gregg, they have to earn the right to cook for the legendary Michel by demonstrating their culinary expertise with a skills test of prepping whole squid and a palate test of cooking it. Our remaining three chefs then face two more gruelling tests for an expectant Michel and Gregg; first they must make two dishes in 50 minutes from the central ingredient of a whole rabbit, then they must recreate two classic dishes of salmon en croute and a creme caramel. Only one chef will make it through to the quarter-final, moving a step closer to winning the title of Professional Masterchef.
