Today’s Mystery Box comes with a twist, as our four judges throw in a secret ingredient that our cooks will have to wrangle.

Andy’s mum Maree is in the kitchen to set an elimination challenge inspired by some of the Allen household’s classic retro dishes. Contestants must make them MasterChef worthy, or risk going home.

The contestants cook for Immunity in a Team Challenge at the iconic Queen Victoria Night Market.

In this elimination cook the contestants are challenged to ‘Keeping Up With Jamie’ on an Oliver Family recipe in order to keep their place in the competition.

Our cooks are set the challenge of making a dish from Mystery Box ingredients chosen by Jamie Oliver’s parents, with the four weakest dishes set to send their makers into tomorrow’s elimination.

The first elimination of the season tasks the cooks with 75 minutes on the clock to create a dish representing their food dream.

The first immunity challenge and it’s a battle of time vs. ingredients. Five contestants must choose between one ingredient and a 90-minute cook, OR up to 20 ingredients but only 45 minutes to cook.

Before our contestants can cook for immunity, they must get through Sofia’s ‘wrap your hands around this’ challenge.

It’s Day Two in the MasterChef Kitchen and already the 22 contestants are thrown into their first big Service Challenge, with Jamie Oliver running the kitchen.

It’s a new era for MasterChef Australia as Andy Allen welcomes three new judges: Sofia Levin, Poh Ling Yeow and Jean-Christophe Novelli, plus guest judge Jamie Oliver.
