Duration: 45 minutes

Legendary double Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jnr and vegetable expert and Masterchef veteran Gregg Wallace are on the hunt for a young chef who wants to make it to the top of the culinary world.

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 filleting a flat fish and a palate test of pan-frying one of the fillets.

Our remaining three chefs then face two more gruelling tests for Michel and Gregg. First, they must make two dishes in 50 minutes from the central ingredient of lamb's kidneys, then they must recreate two classic dishes of brandade de Nimes and madeleines served with a sabayon cream.

Only one will make it through to the quarter-final, moving a step closer to winning the title of Professional Masterchef.
