MasterChef Australia[edit]
MasterChef Australia is a popular Australian competitive cooking game show. It is based on the original British MasterChef series and is produced by Shine Australia and screens on Network 10. The show is judged by renowned chefs George Calombaris, Gary Mehigan, and Matt Preston.
Format[edit]
The format of MasterChef Australia involves a large number of contestants from across Australia individually auditioning by presenting a food dish before the three judges in order to gain one of the 50 semi-final places. The semi-finalists then compete in several challenges which test their food knowledge and preparation skills.
