The second group of five experience the pressure of a professional kitchen for the first time. They must cook a dish for John and Gregg that they would have on the menu of their own restaurant or feature in a cookbook.

In a competition where only the food matters, these amateurs will need to stand out to survive – taking another precious step towards being crowned MasterChef champion 2021.
