1
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:16,398
All right, guys.

2
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:17,940
Jay, another dollar.

3
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,380
Well, may the best person win.

4
00:00:21,260 --> 00:00:24,560
I don't think I ever would have imagined
myself getting to this point. You know,

5
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,980
you have bloody made top five.

6
00:00:27,980 --> 00:00:33,000
I definitely have this, like, insane
hunger to make it through to the

7
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,160
semifinals. Like, I can picture it. When
I go to sleep at night, I, like, have

8
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:38,160
dreams about it.

9
00:00:38,820 --> 00:00:42,900
But, you know, it's a path, but Aaron
and Petro.

10
00:00:43,629 --> 00:00:45,750
Three incredibly strong cooks.

11
00:00:46,670 --> 00:00:51,410
But I'm like, nah, block out the noise.
Just block out the boys.

12
00:00:51,630 --> 00:00:54,090
Just block it all out. Just focus on
your own game, girl.

13
00:01:00,870 --> 00:01:07,590
Walking in, it's only Sophia and
Jean-Christophe. Not sure where Andy and

14
00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:12,010
Poe are, but it looks like there's some
unexpected surprises today.

15
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,960
I've got some great news.

16
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,780
Andy won't be joining us today.

17
00:01:23,380 --> 00:01:27,580
Because his wife, Alex, is having their
first baby!

18
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,040
We are so excited!

19
00:01:38,500 --> 00:01:41,200
This probably doesn't come as much of a
surprise.

20
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:46,380
But the judge who set today's challenge
is an absolute MasterChef icon.

21
00:01:47,340 --> 00:01:52,840
She's competed in not one, but two
seasons of MasterChef, which makes her

22
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,140
the perfect person to set today's
pressure test.

23
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:07,360
She's an author, artist, amazing cook,
and she still has time to run

24
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,139
Adelaide's much-loved jam phase.

25
00:02:09,580 --> 00:02:10,880
Please welcome...

26
00:02:11,370 --> 00:02:12,370
Poe Liggett!

27
00:02:17,410 --> 00:02:23,790
She looks so professional in her full,
like, jam-fit, and I'm like, oh, she

28
00:02:23,790 --> 00:02:24,890
means business today.

29
00:02:25,250 --> 00:02:28,930
Oh, my God, it's so weird. There's only
five of you.

30
00:02:29,590 --> 00:02:30,590
Hello, hello.

31
00:02:31,710 --> 00:02:37,270
We love Poe, but I'm a little scared
about what's under that cloche because

32
00:02:37,270 --> 00:02:39,390
this is my first ever pressure test.

33
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,660
And to do my first one this late in the
competition, this is really scary.

34
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,160
Hope, care to show them what they'll be
making?

35
00:02:51,860 --> 00:02:56,560
What I have under this cloth is
something that's very close to my heart.

36
00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:01,500
And it's also something that usually
takes years to perfect.

37
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,500
Today you'll be making my...

38
00:03:10,780 --> 00:03:11,780
Malaysian snack.

39
00:03:18,220 --> 00:03:20,400
Look at the pleats on that thing.

40
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,300
Malaysian snacks was probably one of the
last things I would have thought would

41
00:03:27,300 --> 00:03:28,300
be under there.

42
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:32,600
And it hits so close to home for me
because I'm Malaysian, right?

43
00:03:33,060 --> 00:03:35,680
This is all the stuff I used to grow up
eating plus more.

44
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:37,760
I know how to eat them. I don't know how
to make them.

45
00:03:39,050 --> 00:03:45,790
So what we have here is spiral curry
puff or curry puff, kwe lapi

46
00:03:45,790 --> 00:03:48,030
and kwe kochi.

47
00:03:48,990 --> 00:03:50,950
This is more than just food to me.

48
00:03:51,790 --> 00:03:55,550
These are recipes that have been passed
down many generations through my family.

49
00:03:55,970 --> 00:03:58,190
And I'm so happy to be sharing them with
you.

50
00:03:59,830 --> 00:04:02,650
Do you want to come in for a closer
look? Yeah. Come on then.

51
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:05,760
Oh, wow.

52
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,120
Look at those curry puffs.

53
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:08,360
They're unreal.

54
00:04:08,940 --> 00:04:13,260
Oh, my God. So this is the curry puff.
Oh, my days.

55
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:19,000
It's got a very specific kind of pastry,
like a puff, but it's in spiral form.

56
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,740
So you want to be able to see those
spiral layers.

57
00:04:25,740 --> 00:04:27,900
This one's really fun.

58
00:04:28,580 --> 00:04:30,640
You'll feel like you're doing arts and
crafts.

59
00:04:31,940 --> 00:04:33,420
Most of the mixture is vanilla.

60
00:04:34,090 --> 00:04:38,810
But for the purple layer, there's ube,
and then for the green, it's panda.

61
00:04:40,290 --> 00:04:41,290
Every layer.

62
00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:42,510
Yeah.

63
00:04:42,670 --> 00:04:49,450
So when we're little kids, it's like one
of the things that's really delightful

64
00:04:49,450 --> 00:04:51,030
about this, you eat it layer by layer.

65
00:04:54,770 --> 00:04:55,970
It's really satisfying.

66
00:04:58,870 --> 00:05:00,410
Like, that's wild. Oh, my God.

67
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,220
But the pressure points are really all
about getting your colouring really

68
00:05:05,220 --> 00:05:07,540
beautiful so you get that really lovely
rainbow effect.

69
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,920
And if it's not cooked through, you
won't be able to peel it because they'll

70
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:11,899
fuse together.

71
00:05:11,900 --> 00:05:12,900
Okay.

72
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:14,740
And then kwekuchi.

73
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,920
There's a lot in here about the folding
and the construction.

74
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:25,120
And inside is glutinous rice flour
that's been kneaded with coconut milk

75
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,420
and pandan water.

76
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:30,460
And then stuffed inside is...

77
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,880
Coconut that's been braised in palm
sugar and coconut cream. Oh, wow.

78
00:05:35,660 --> 00:05:41,260
For the kwekochi, the pressure points, I
think, are big time in the wrapping. So

79
00:05:41,260 --> 00:05:42,260
you need to get that right.

80
00:05:42,340 --> 00:05:46,420
But one of the biggest pressure points,
of course, is that you're going to have

81
00:05:46,420 --> 00:05:50,240
to be multi-harping because you're
making all three at the same time.

82
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Three dishes.

83
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:57,480
Oh, that is an ask. And they actually
look pretty technical.

84
00:05:58,340 --> 00:06:00,180
Oh, I love squid juice.

85
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,560
It's fun, right?

86
00:06:03,940 --> 00:06:09,500
A kway lapis is like a mochi-esque sort
of dessert cake. It's got all these

87
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:13,140
glutinous flowers in it that give it
chew. So it's kind of a marriage of a

88
00:06:13,140 --> 00:06:16,820
mochi and a jelly, and it's
multi-layered and different colors.

89
00:06:17,220 --> 00:06:21,880
And my sister and I, when we were
younger, used to peel all the layers we

90
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,580
didn't want and eat the ones we did.

91
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,040
So, you know...

92
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,860
It elicits so much memory for me and
nostalgia.

93
00:06:30,340 --> 00:06:31,560
So what are you tasting?

94
00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:33,900
Coconut.

95
00:06:34,380 --> 00:06:37,640
A lot, a lot of coconut. And that
natural pandan flavour.

96
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:39,580
So that's in the glutinous rice.

97
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:43,740
And this is banana leaf. You can smell
it. Yeah, yeah.

98
00:06:44,420 --> 00:06:50,160
Kwe Kochi is so fragrant. And I remember
I used to love pulling it apart with my

99
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,760
hands and seeing it stretch and getting
the filling everywhere.

100
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,680
The inside I couldn't care less for when
I was younger. But now I understand that

101
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,400
you get that sweetness, the saltiness,
there's the texture of the coconut as

102
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,400
well.

103
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:13,460
Some of the techniques are so difficult
to describe in a recipe form. I'm

104
00:07:13,460 --> 00:07:14,840
actually going to do a little demo for
you.

105
00:07:15,940 --> 00:07:16,940
That's cool.

106
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,680
So let's start with the kwekoti.

107
00:07:20,300 --> 00:07:23,360
The ball's already been stuffed. I'm not
going to give you that much of a tip.

108
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:28,020
And you can be really generous in the
way that you oil down your leaf.

109
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:35,420
And in the recipe, it will tell you to
do this, which is true, but it's kind of

110
00:07:35,420 --> 00:07:36,420
a little past.

111
00:07:36,820 --> 00:07:38,680
Can you see what I'm saying? Ah, yep.

112
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:45,260
Now, once this ball is made, you want to
treat it like a present. So that,

113
00:07:45,820 --> 00:07:47,680
that.

114
00:07:52,750 --> 00:07:56,670
We're really lucky to be seeing this
demonstration from Poe, but, again, it's

115
00:07:56,670 --> 00:07:59,930
sort of reinforcing that this is going
to be a very technical pressure test

116
00:07:59,930 --> 00:08:02,490
because you never see demonstrations for
a pressure test.

117
00:08:03,210 --> 00:08:05,630
OK, now I'm going to show you the
pleasing on the curry puff.

118
00:08:06,770 --> 00:08:10,650
So you seal it first and then you have
to use your thumb.

119
00:08:13,730 --> 00:08:18,710
Oh! And it's kind of a sideways thing.
Like, you use that side.

120
00:08:18,930 --> 00:08:21,970
Yeah. A lot of people go like this and
you get a...

121
00:08:22,190 --> 00:08:23,850
Very dodgy pleat.

122
00:08:25,510 --> 00:08:26,510
Okay?

123
00:08:26,970 --> 00:08:28,930
Wow. I think everything looks good.

124
00:08:30,830 --> 00:08:37,809
One of the things that

125
00:08:37,809 --> 00:08:41,409
I'm really excited about with this is
that a lot of these skills are getting

126
00:08:41,409 --> 00:08:46,980
lost. And so I really want to, I don't
have any kids, so I want to be able to

127
00:08:46,980 --> 00:08:48,920
teach these skills, hand these skills
on.

128
00:08:49,180 --> 00:08:52,200
And I'm just really delighted, even
though it's a sad day because someone's

129
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,020
leaving. I just really want to teach
these skills that I've learned.

130
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,300
Aaron, how are you feeling?

131
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,320
I'm feeling a bit emotional. This is
very reminiscent of my papa.

132
00:09:03,660 --> 00:09:04,660
Yeah.

133
00:09:05,180 --> 00:09:08,180
I wish I learned all this when she was
still around, you know. That's right,

134
00:09:08,220 --> 00:09:11,940
you get to learn it now. Yeah, like she,
yeah, she would have been very happy

135
00:09:11,940 --> 00:09:16,160
teaching me this. She was trying, but I
wasn't as dexterous or into cooking back

136
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,160
then. I was 15.

137
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,640
Yeah, it's very, very nostalgic for me.

138
00:09:21,940 --> 00:09:24,360
No matter what happens, you're going to
gain something today.

139
00:09:26,460 --> 00:09:31,720
All right, you'll have three hours and
15 minutes to recreate Poe's Malaysian

140
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,880
snacks in both look and taste.

141
00:09:35,850 --> 00:09:39,650
The recipe and all the ingredients are
at your benches.

142
00:09:40,910 --> 00:09:47,230
The cook, whose dishes resemble pose,
will be leaving the competition.

143
00:09:49,290 --> 00:09:52,690
Your time starts now.

144
00:09:58,670 --> 00:10:00,370
Vinny, you want to start? Yes, please.

145
00:10:00,670 --> 00:10:01,670
Are you ready?

146
00:10:01,850 --> 00:10:02,870
Straight up.

147
00:10:04,340 --> 00:10:05,340
Thank you.

148
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,000
Enjoy that, Vinnie. You earned it.

149
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,160
This is all very unfamiliar territory
for me.

150
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,840
Never cooked with a lot of these
ingredients, never cooked with a lot of

151
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:21,840
these techniques.

152
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:27,280
But I went really well in the last
pressure test, so I was hoping that

153
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,800
would give me momentum to go into this
one.

154
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,240
So my strategy is... Measure twice, cut
once. Read the recipe.

155
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,140
It's a bit crazy. This is my first one.

156
00:10:39,500 --> 00:10:45,800
So I'm just making sure that I'm reading
everything and not missing any steps

157
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,800
because that is crucial.

158
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:53,800
I am 100% at a huge disadvantage today.
I think being in a pressure test, you

159
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,820
learn how to deal with the pressure,
stress, and following that recipe.

160
00:10:58,220 --> 00:11:00,980
You all right, Petro? Yeah, mate. I'm
going to lock in.

161
00:11:01,550 --> 00:11:05,090
I think the only way I can survive is
working as quickly as I can.

162
00:11:06,110 --> 00:11:09,670
Poe's Malaysian snacks were absolutely
delicious. I love them.

163
00:11:09,930 --> 00:11:13,670
And it's really special for Poe to pass
on her family traditions.

164
00:11:14,130 --> 00:11:18,570
I know, you know, even in Greek
traditions, we get so complacent just

165
00:11:18,570 --> 00:11:21,470
eating them all the time. We forget
that, you know, it's actually important

166
00:11:21,470 --> 00:11:23,030
to learn how to make them.

167
00:11:23,410 --> 00:11:26,370
I come from a very culturally rich
background.

168
00:11:28,410 --> 00:11:33,870
I do have some special food traditions
with my, yeah, with both of them.

169
00:11:34,430 --> 00:11:40,050
And unfortunately, one of them passed
away right after the family tree

170
00:11:40,050 --> 00:11:41,050
challenge.

171
00:11:42,010 --> 00:11:47,670
And it was a big struggle for me to get
through those weeks and grieve whilst

172
00:11:47,670 --> 00:11:48,670
being here.

173
00:11:48,790 --> 00:11:52,550
So it's going to be a really special
cook because of that.

174
00:11:54,060 --> 00:11:59,460
And I'm trying to suppress any added
pressure I feel because this is such a

175
00:11:59,460 --> 00:12:02,080
heartfelt cook now. It's not just a
normal pressure test.

176
00:12:02,740 --> 00:12:05,680
So I really hope I can do her snack
justice.

177
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,000
First thing I need to do is get onto my
quail lapis.

178
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,460
So I need to get my basket onto steam
and then make mixture.

179
00:12:21,900 --> 00:12:25,900
I've only done one pressure test so far,
and that was Sam Azebit's mud crab

180
00:12:25,900 --> 00:12:29,980
salad. So I think there was lots of
elements that I nailed really well, but

181
00:12:29,980 --> 00:12:33,700
I learned a huge lesson from it, and
that was always follow the instructions.

182
00:12:34,060 --> 00:12:38,500
The one instruction where I veered off
from what was written in front of me was

183
00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:40,000
a mistake that almost sent me home.

184
00:12:40,820 --> 00:12:42,700
Are you guys starting with the cake? Is
that what it is?

185
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,060
The steamed rainbow thing?

186
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:46,880
Yeah. Queer lapis.

187
00:12:47,470 --> 00:12:51,730
Quail lapis is definitely like a food
that you are supposed to play with. Like

188
00:12:51,730 --> 00:12:54,130
peeling back those layers was really
fun.

189
00:12:54,410 --> 00:12:58,350
And when I looked at Poe's quail lapis,
every single layer was the same

190
00:12:58,350 --> 00:13:02,210
thickness. So I need to make sure that
I'm measuring out exactly the same

191
00:13:02,210 --> 00:13:03,330
amount in all these ramekins.

192
00:13:05,070 --> 00:13:08,490
To make the quail lapis batter, I'm
mixing coconut milk, tapioca starch,

193
00:13:08,830 --> 00:13:10,990
rice flour, a bit of water, and some
vanilla.

194
00:13:13,070 --> 00:13:17,170
I think because we've got to be very
precise with the colours, I want all of

195
00:13:17,170 --> 00:13:19,870
the bowls to be, like, the same amount
of weight.

196
00:13:20,130 --> 00:13:23,530
So if I can get about 90 grams of each,
I'll be pretty happy.

197
00:13:24,090 --> 00:13:25,090
Come on, guys.

198
00:13:26,930 --> 00:13:29,170
Like making up drugs in a cardiac arrest
at work.

199
00:13:34,530 --> 00:13:37,310
So far, so good. I think, yeah, it's
kind of like arts and crafts.

200
00:13:38,950 --> 00:13:40,950
There's a lot of nostalgia and joy
that's hitting me.

201
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,420
I've never attempted to make any of
these dishes before.

202
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,240
I've eaten them plenty, so I know what
they taste like. But the idea of

203
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,480
actually, like, doing it is so special.

204
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,120
There are nine layers in this kueh
lapis.

205
00:13:54,480 --> 00:14:00,220
The first layer is the first white
layer, and it has to steam for about

206
00:14:00,220 --> 00:14:01,260
four to seven minutes.

207
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:07,560
And here is where it's really important
to make sure that each layer is cooked

208
00:14:07,560 --> 00:14:10,060
because the batters would stick to each
other.

209
00:14:10,510 --> 00:14:11,870
and you wouldn't be able to peel it.

210
00:14:13,330 --> 00:14:17,530
My kueh lapis is cooking away, and I'm
making sure I get this right.

211
00:14:18,350 --> 00:14:22,030
I'm being very careful. I'm going off
feel with my kueh lapis. I'm touching it

212
00:14:22,030 --> 00:14:23,030
as I go.

213
00:14:26,270 --> 00:14:27,270
Feeling all right, Ez?

214
00:14:28,090 --> 00:14:29,090
Yeah.

215
00:14:29,610 --> 00:14:33,550
The recipe calls for four and a half
minutes to cook each layer, but what I'm

216
00:14:33,550 --> 00:14:38,690
finding is that it's taking more... I'm
going to start on my order for my curry

217
00:14:38,690 --> 00:14:39,690
puff.

218
00:14:44,940 --> 00:14:47,100
I've mixed my mixture into my clay
lattice.

219
00:14:47,380 --> 00:14:52,460
I've separated it into the nine bowls,
but I'm thinking right now, maybe these

220
00:14:52,460 --> 00:14:54,940
need to be absolutely perfect and even.

221
00:14:56,100 --> 00:15:00,680
It's a bit hard to do nine completely by
eye, so I'm just going to be a little

222
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,100
touch more precise and measure them out.

223
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,040
I'm looking around.

224
00:15:11,220 --> 00:15:12,560
I've already fallen behind.

225
00:15:13,260 --> 00:15:17,520
But I have to make sure that everything
is precise because precision is so

226
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,400
important when it comes to a pressure
test.

227
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,280
Yellow.

228
00:15:21,700 --> 00:15:24,740
I've just finished re-pouring my bowl.

229
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:31,220
And I need to put a different amount of
dye in each bowl. And I have to be

230
00:15:31,220 --> 00:15:32,220
really precise.

231
00:15:32,380 --> 00:15:34,760
But I've also got to pick up the paste a
bit.

232
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:39,480
I've got blue.

233
00:15:40,020 --> 00:15:41,020
I've got purple.

234
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:42,980
I got pandan.

235
00:15:43,340 --> 00:15:44,340
I got yellow.

236
00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:49,580
I got orange and red.

237
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:53,960
What's wrong?

238
00:15:56,460 --> 00:15:57,460
I'm missing a layer.

239
00:15:59,140 --> 00:16:00,160
I'm not sure what I've done.

240
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,180
I'm meant to have nine bowls full.

241
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,680
I've only got eight.

242
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,140
I'm starting to freak out. I don't know
what's happened. I don't know which

243
00:16:09,140 --> 00:16:10,140
colour I'm missing.

244
00:16:11,340 --> 00:16:14,280
You should have nine. You should have
nine balls. I don't know why I've got

245
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:19,300
eight. I think I... Are you missing the
pink? You've got a white and you're

246
00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:20,300
missing a pink.

247
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,340
You've had 45 minutes. You have two and
a half hours to go.

248
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:39,680
Come on, guys.

249
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:52,960
Honestly, not sure what I've done.

250
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,180
I'm not sure what I've done.

251
00:16:59,620 --> 00:17:01,440
Is your cake in, Castor? Yeah.

252
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,880
I have to make a decision, and I think
I'm just going to have to put up eight

253
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:13,220
layers instead of nine.

254
00:17:13,660 --> 00:17:14,660
Purple, blue.

255
00:17:16,260 --> 00:17:18,500
There's two white layers in this cake.

256
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,160
I'm just gonna have to ditch one of them
so I can get all the other colors in.

257
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,380
I've got no option and I've just got to
make it up with my other elements.

258
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,880
I need to stain that first layer for my
play Lapis, but I don't have time to

259
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,220
read this recipe perfectly.

260
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,300
I've fallen short by not trusting my
instincts.

261
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,220
I'm going to trust them and push as hard
as I can to not go home.

262
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:44,700
All right, let's go.

263
00:17:44,900 --> 00:17:46,420
Bully off, you big deer.

264
00:17:48,540 --> 00:17:51,860
Poe, you've been watching these guys
like a hawk. What's happening out there?

265
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,040
Very, very interesting.

266
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,180
So I'm going to talk about Petko first.

267
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,580
He's definitely behind and he's got
issues already.

268
00:17:58,860 --> 00:18:02,380
So with a queer lappist, there's meant
to be nine bowls and he's missed one

269
00:18:02,380 --> 00:18:07,000
layer. If you want to survive this, you
cannot put a foot wrong anywhere else.

270
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,320
Casper. Casper's an interesting one.

271
00:18:09,790 --> 00:18:12,530
You can tell he's going very slowly
because he's just trying to read the

272
00:18:12,530 --> 00:18:13,530
recipe too thoroughly.

273
00:18:13,830 --> 00:18:15,090
But he's tracking pretty well.

274
00:18:15,450 --> 00:18:16,450
How's Aaron doing?

275
00:18:16,730 --> 00:18:18,030
Aaron's going very well.

276
00:18:18,250 --> 00:18:19,850
And Annabelle is smooth sailing.

277
00:18:20,050 --> 00:18:21,410
They're both onto the curry puff prep.

278
00:18:21,790 --> 00:18:25,610
But I think the most challenging thing
will be the curry puff because that

279
00:18:25,610 --> 00:18:27,610
pastry is quite tricky to do.

280
00:18:29,070 --> 00:18:30,150
Water through here.

281
00:18:31,490 --> 00:18:35,090
I feel good at this point. I think I've
gotten into the flow a little bit and

282
00:18:35,090 --> 00:18:36,090
I'm having fun.

283
00:18:36,450 --> 00:18:38,830
Cooking that for four and a half minutes
and then we're just doing that for each

284
00:18:38,830 --> 00:18:40,570
colour. Looks good, Annabelle.

285
00:18:42,730 --> 00:18:43,730
Green.

286
00:18:43,930 --> 00:18:48,930
Between my quail lapis layers steaming,
I'm trying to work on my curry puff

287
00:18:48,930 --> 00:18:49,930
dough as well.

288
00:18:50,350 --> 00:18:54,730
I'm just about to start my lamination
for my spiral dough. Just got these,

289
00:18:54,750 --> 00:18:57,650
like, fat dough and a water dough, and
then you get them together and you

290
00:18:57,650 --> 00:18:58,650
spiral them.

291
00:18:59,810 --> 00:19:01,590
Hopefully I can do that. Two.

292
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,780
The curry puff dough is made up of an
oil dough and a water dough.

293
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,140
And I remember when I was eating post
curry puff, like you could see it was

294
00:19:09,140 --> 00:19:12,420
like the eye of the, where the flakiness
started in the middle. Like you could

295
00:19:12,420 --> 00:19:14,660
see the differential layers coming out.

296
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,900
I've never made this dough before. Never
even heard of this dough before, but I

297
00:19:18,900 --> 00:19:22,060
guess I'm kind of looking at it
similarly to like lamination of puff

298
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:26,980
pastry to make sure that you do get like
real distinct layering of the two

299
00:19:26,980 --> 00:19:33,890
doughs. We need to basically roll it out
into a 30 by 40 centimetre and then roll

300
00:19:33,890 --> 00:19:38,050
it up into a giant cigar and make four
even indents with the rolling pin.

301
00:19:40,570 --> 00:19:45,170
And then I think you just roll it up and
then I'm, like, turning it into, like, a

302
00:19:45,170 --> 00:19:49,490
snail. I didn't say the word snail in
the recipe, but that's what it looks

303
00:19:49,490 --> 00:19:50,449
like to me.

304
00:19:50,450 --> 00:19:53,150
I'm getting on to my curry puff filling
now.

305
00:19:53,810 --> 00:19:55,870
Hi, Annabelle. Hello, Poe. How are you
going? Are you having fun?

306
00:19:56,330 --> 00:19:57,330
I'm having fun.

307
00:19:57,490 --> 00:19:59,970
I got a little, like, especially all the
colours. I'm like, yay!

308
00:20:00,290 --> 00:20:03,150
Do you think your practice pants remind
you a little bit of work?

309
00:20:03,450 --> 00:20:06,970
Oh, 100%. I just said before, I feel
like with the pipettes and everything, I

310
00:20:06,970 --> 00:20:09,310
felt like I was, like, making up drugs
in, like, an arrest. Oh, right.

311
00:20:10,450 --> 00:20:13,170
You're, like, a little bit shaky, but,
like, there's no room for error. Yeah,

312
00:20:13,170 --> 00:20:14,029
yeah, yeah. You've got to get it right.

313
00:20:14,030 --> 00:20:15,030
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

314
00:20:15,310 --> 00:20:18,450
So there is some kind of, like,
affiliation with your career, which gets

315
00:20:18,450 --> 00:20:20,050
you through this. 100%. I like that. I
like that.

316
00:20:20,250 --> 00:20:21,250
All right. Good luck.

317
00:20:22,700 --> 00:20:26,320
I've given up a lot to be here. You
know, like, I've got this awesome career

318
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:32,160
that has given me so much, which I have
just, like, put on hold to chase my

319
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:36,740
dream. And, like, being here, it's,
like, lit a fire within me that I'm

320
00:20:36,740 --> 00:20:38,880
like, OK, I definitely want a career in
food.

321
00:20:39,620 --> 00:20:43,620
And I do really want to be there at the
end. And that's not something that I

322
00:20:43,620 --> 00:20:45,980
kind of had envisioned for a long time.

323
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,080
But I feel like now I can do this.

324
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:53,480
Let's go. Let's take this all away.

325
00:20:59,620 --> 00:21:01,420
Only a little bit more.

326
00:21:02,900 --> 00:21:04,100
Not quite set.

327
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,260
That's it, Aaron. Come on.

328
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,520
Very good.

329
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:14,680
Thanks, Bella.

330
00:21:15,420 --> 00:21:19,200
Stay sharp. You only have one hour and
55 minutes to go.

331
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:20,560
Come on, guys.

332
00:21:25,220 --> 00:21:27,160
All right, let's go, mate.

333
00:21:30,260 --> 00:21:33,700
I finally got one of the snacks done,
the kway lapis.

334
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,700
It's looking really good. Everything
feels right.

335
00:21:38,120 --> 00:21:43,520
I've done my lamination of the spiral
dough for my curry puff.

336
00:21:43,940 --> 00:21:47,220
I'm just working on the filling for my
curry puff at the moment. Just trying to

337
00:21:47,220 --> 00:21:49,280
dice everything up, like, really evenly.

338
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,380
Post-filling was unbelievably fragrant
and uniform.

339
00:21:53,740 --> 00:21:57,720
I'm trying to emulate that so that I
don't burst through the wrap-up.

340
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,860
Guys, you really need to motor on.

341
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:05,020
You really need to be on to prepping
your curry puff filling by now.

342
00:22:05,300 --> 00:22:08,360
Come on, Annabelle. Come on, guys. Just
keep pushing.

343
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:10,360
Come on.

344
00:22:10,700 --> 00:22:11,780
Quicker. Faster.

345
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:18,760
I can't hear anything else around me.
Everything just feels like a murmur or a

346
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:19,760
mumble.

347
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:22,540
It feels comfortable.

348
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:27,000
It feels comforting as well. It feels
like home, like you're learning at home.

349
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,680
And it's, yeah, like such a cool
experience.

350
00:22:31,060 --> 00:22:36,200
Pre-MasterChef, a lot of the food I was
cooking wasn't actually heavily

351
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,500
influenced by Malaysian heritage.

352
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,980
But in the last three weeks, I started
to cook more Malaysian food.

353
00:22:43,460 --> 00:22:47,880
Now I see how much importance there is
behind.

354
00:22:48,540 --> 00:22:52,100
connecting to your own story, connecting
to your roots.

355
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,160
So I don't want to go home on a
challenge like this.

356
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,020
I've got to push hard because this is a
cool down. I've got to fill it, try it.

357
00:23:04,060 --> 00:23:05,060
Still a lot to do.

358
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,260
Thank you for everything.

359
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,000
What's wrong with it?

360
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,260
I've still got a few layers to go here
for my kway lapis.

361
00:23:22,740 --> 00:23:27,160
Now I've got my curry puff oil dough
resting. Now I'm getting on to my water

362
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,380
dough. So I'm just measuring all the
ingredients for that.

363
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:34,840
I'm making my water dough and this is
the same as making like a shortcrust

364
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,640
pastry. I have made similar doughs and I
feel like those techniques I can apply

365
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:44,040
here. So I'm trusting my instincts and
it's coming together really really

366
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,040
quickly.

367
00:23:45,350 --> 00:23:48,370
I'm hoping that I'm starting to patch up
because I did fall behind at the start.

368
00:23:49,310 --> 00:23:50,310
Done.

369
00:23:55,430 --> 00:24:01,710
I wouldn't say I'm behind behind yet,
but I'm feeling like time is catching

370
00:24:01,710 --> 00:24:02,710
up.

371
00:24:05,790 --> 00:24:08,830
I've got my prolapus steaming away.

372
00:24:10,729 --> 00:24:15,270
Now I'm getting started on my oil dough
and my water dough now for my curry

373
00:24:15,270 --> 00:24:16,270
puff.

374
00:24:17,390 --> 00:24:22,350
Pressure tests remind me of when I used
to work in a bar and it would be service

375
00:24:22,350 --> 00:24:23,530
but I would still have prep to do.

376
00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:25,930
So I'd be like multitasking everywhere.

377
00:24:30,250 --> 00:24:31,250
What's that, Casper?

378
00:24:37,390 --> 00:24:41,710
The jarring between my koi lapis and
these two does is proving to be a little

379
00:24:41,710 --> 00:24:42,710
bit complicated.

380
00:24:45,750 --> 00:24:46,750
You all right, Cass?

381
00:24:47,970 --> 00:24:50,090
Maybe a bit too wet.

382
00:24:51,190 --> 00:24:54,430
As I'm looking at this dough, it's
almost looking more pizza dough than,

383
00:24:54,470 --> 00:24:57,850
like, shortcrust dough. So I know that
something has gone wrong.

384
00:24:58,150 --> 00:24:59,850
It's, like, sticky and stretchy.

385
00:25:01,250 --> 00:25:02,250
Are you all right?

386
00:25:07,620 --> 00:25:12,680
I've put too much water in my dough, so
I'm feeling a bit nervous.

387
00:25:25,060 --> 00:25:28,600
I think maybe like a touch too much
water in my dough.

388
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,360
I realised I didn't actually measure it
out. I put it in the jug, and I probably

389
00:25:33,360 --> 00:25:36,020
had way more than 100ml, so I just
poured it in. It feels like way too wet.

390
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:37,720
I'm going to make that again quickly.

391
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,820
If you don't have your layers perfect,
you're not going to get the spiral and

392
00:25:41,820 --> 00:25:42,820
you're not going to get the puff.

393
00:25:43,500 --> 00:25:47,100
I think I just need to, like, find
another gear because I don't want to go

394
00:25:47,100 --> 00:25:48,100
home today.

395
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,760
This is looking much better.

396
00:25:51,380 --> 00:25:55,360
OK, guys, this is where you have to dig
deep. You only have one hour to go.

397
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,000
Come on,

398
00:26:04,580 --> 00:26:05,580
guys, you've got to keep going.

399
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:06,760
Not long left.

400
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,960
My curry puff dough's done. My curry
puff filling's done.

401
00:26:16,220 --> 00:26:18,460
And now I need to assemble the curry
puff.

402
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:20,720
Okay.

403
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:24,519
Don't worry about it.

404
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,600
You're good. Keep going.

405
00:26:25,940 --> 00:26:31,540
This curry puff has the most insane
spiral pastry I have ever seen. And,

406
00:26:31,540 --> 00:26:33,300
like, beautiful little...

407
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,620
crimping on the side that looks like
it's been done by a machine.

408
00:26:38,020 --> 00:26:44,980
We have to cut 30 gram rounds of the
dough, roll it out, but

409
00:26:44,980 --> 00:26:50,240
maintain that that beautiful little eye
whirly thing is in the middle because

410
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:54,460
that's the most important thing. And
then we stuff our curry puff filling

411
00:26:54,460 --> 00:26:59,700
into it. And now it's time to do those
beautiful, perfect folds that Poe had on

412
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:00,940
her. We'll see how this goes.

413
00:27:10,570 --> 00:27:12,130
Thank you, Auntie Poe. Good job.

414
00:27:23,250 --> 00:27:28,110
Leading the curry puffs, I feel as
though some sort of instinct kicked in

415
00:27:28,110 --> 00:27:31,430
and I'm just like, oh, yeah, cool, I
know how to do this.

416
00:27:33,010 --> 00:27:37,570
I'm not too worried about perfect
crimping. I'd rather that they're

417
00:27:37,570 --> 00:27:38,650
sealed.

418
00:27:40,940 --> 00:27:45,380
Um, so I've got my curry puff filling
cooking and now I'm going to, at the

419
00:27:45,380 --> 00:27:50,680
same time, just get some of my
laminations for my dough. I think this

420
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:55,580
is an area that I can catch up a little
bit in if I can get this done. Doing

421
00:27:55,580 --> 00:27:56,580
some multitasking.

422
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,060
There's a spiral in the pastry, that's a
good thing. I'm pretty happy with that.

423
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,640
I'm up to the kway kochi stuffing.

424
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:05,720
Another kway.

425
00:28:06,700 --> 00:28:08,120
Kway kochi is so...

426
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:13,220
Fragrant and I remember Beautiful
texture because you get that like

427
00:28:13,220 --> 00:28:17,480
sweetness the saltiness There's like the
the texture of the coconut like a slight

428
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:23,920
crunch, but it's tender So to make the
filling I have to get some pandan leaves

429
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:30,440
Palm sugar coconut cream the desiccated
coconut as well Cook that out

430
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:35,600
and then inside the dough for my
kwekkochi potato and water So when it

431
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,250
comes to the dough I've eaten it. It's a
very familiar dough. It's one of those

432
00:28:39,250 --> 00:28:42,030
rice dumplings that's really chewy, you
know, having a lot of Asian dessert.

433
00:28:42,350 --> 00:28:46,010
You have to steam cubed sweet potato.

434
00:28:47,310 --> 00:28:52,370
Then you have to blitz up pandan in
water and pass it through a muslin cloth

435
00:28:52,370 --> 00:28:54,330
to make pandan water.

436
00:28:55,370 --> 00:29:00,450
Combine it all with glutinous rice flour
and make it into a dough that kneads

437
00:29:00,450 --> 00:29:02,050
until it's smooth but doesn't crumble.

438
00:29:03,410 --> 00:29:05,930
I've eaten it in its cooked form. I know
what it feels like.

439
00:29:06,380 --> 00:29:11,640
In its raw form, I have no idea what I'm
looking for. I'm just relying on the

440
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,660
fact that it feels right, not too wet,
not too dry, going off the back of

441
00:29:15,660 --> 00:29:18,340
whatever instinct I have and hoping that
it's right.

442
00:29:18,740 --> 00:29:22,140
It should all be coming together now. 30
minutes to go.

443
00:29:24,460 --> 00:29:25,500
Come on, guys.

444
00:29:26,420 --> 00:29:27,420
Big push.

445
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:40,100
of a rhythm i did have a you know a bit
of a step back at the start but i got my

446
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:45,460
white lava steady now i need to get on
to my clay coaches it is time to

447
00:29:45,460 --> 00:29:52,200
multitask nice petro keep going to make
my quake watch it i'm skimming over that

448
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:57,900
recipe i'm taking in as much as i need
to and then hopefully i can use my

449
00:29:57,900 --> 00:30:02,700
instincts flavor wise and even texture
wise with the dough but i've never made

450
00:30:02,700 --> 00:30:03,700
anything like it

451
00:30:04,270 --> 00:30:07,790
My kochi stuffing is looking pretty
good, I think.

452
00:30:08,210 --> 00:30:11,330
Yeah, I've just got to make sure I get
this right and I cook everything out

453
00:30:11,330 --> 00:30:12,330
properly.

454
00:30:16,710 --> 00:30:18,050
Have you made any yet?

455
00:30:18,530 --> 00:30:21,790
Some of you? I've got one hiding under
there. Yeah, I think you need to power

456
00:30:21,790 --> 00:30:23,490
on because you're definitely falling
behind.

457
00:30:24,850 --> 00:30:29,670
So right now I'm multitasking three
things. My curry puffs, my koi kochi

458
00:30:29,670 --> 00:30:31,570
filling and my koi kochi dough.

459
00:30:32,170 --> 00:30:36,290
Yeah, definitely multicasting, but now
my koi koshi ceiling is coming off.

460
00:30:36,350 --> 00:30:38,010
Like, it's looking pretty good.

461
00:30:38,290 --> 00:30:43,790
And then one curry puff left to do, and
then I'll get started on frying my curry

462
00:30:43,790 --> 00:30:44,790
puffs.

463
00:30:46,530 --> 00:30:47,449
Guys, push!

464
00:30:47,450 --> 00:30:49,070
You don't want to be the one that goes
home!

465
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,800
My curry pasta in the oil, I'm happy. I
know how to fry things, so I'm just

466
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:02,699
going to leave them there.

467
00:31:02,700 --> 00:31:04,260
And the dough for my kwekkochi.

468
00:31:04,780 --> 00:31:09,440
It's the right texture. It's like this
squishy, but like fun, sort of like it's

469
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,380
green. And, you know, it feels right. It
feels mochi-esque.

470
00:31:13,420 --> 00:31:15,480
I need to steam them so that they cook
through.

471
00:31:15,820 --> 00:31:19,240
There's a lot to that. There's
flattening the dough, getting the

472
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:24,500
filling, putting it in, rolling it up,
putting in the banana leaf, hoping that

473
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:25,500
I can fold it perfectly.

474
00:31:26,820 --> 00:31:27,900
Let's do it, Aaron. Come on.

475
00:31:28,970 --> 00:31:33,270
It is a tricky technique, and it's like
origami, just to get the point and have

476
00:31:33,270 --> 00:31:35,670
it all, like, tightly bound in that
parcel.

477
00:31:36,270 --> 00:31:39,090
So I want them to look as perfect as
pose.

478
00:31:42,650 --> 00:31:43,650
Duh, man.

479
00:31:43,870 --> 00:31:44,870
What's wrong with it?

480
00:31:44,950 --> 00:31:47,210
It's just, like, really, like... Soft?

481
00:31:47,430 --> 00:31:48,389
Yeah.

482
00:31:48,390 --> 00:31:49,870
I'm frying my curry puffs.

483
00:31:50,110 --> 00:31:53,930
I have just finished my kwekotchi
filling.

484
00:31:54,750 --> 00:32:00,130
But my clay kochi dough that encases
that beautiful coconut filling was very

485
00:32:00,130 --> 00:32:03,230
soft and, like, really easy to kind of
pull apart.

486
00:32:03,490 --> 00:32:05,750
I'm like, to me, that's not what dough
should be like.

487
00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:07,730
This dough's just not working.

488
00:32:08,510 --> 00:32:10,750
It's, like, not changing. I've been
doing this for ages.

489
00:32:11,150 --> 00:32:12,150
Take a deep breath.

490
00:32:12,630 --> 00:32:13,970
Keep going. Keep pushing.

491
00:32:15,150 --> 00:32:18,490
I'm, like, adding flour to it to, like,
try and get the right consistency, and

492
00:32:18,490 --> 00:32:22,090
I'm just like, I don't even know what
this is meant to be like.

493
00:32:22,330 --> 00:32:23,330
Come on, Annabelle.

494
00:32:23,370 --> 00:32:24,370
Spit it up.

495
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,080
I know I'm spending too much time on it,
and I know I don't have a lot of time,

496
00:32:28,180 --> 00:32:33,100
but I don't want to do the wrong thing,
especially at this point in the cook.

497
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,220
Like, I feel like I've been going so
well, and I really don't want to go

498
00:32:36,220 --> 00:32:38,600
home. So I'm hoping it comes together
soon.

499
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,500
All right, Annabelle, just work with
what you've got, yeah?

500
00:32:54,380 --> 00:32:58,500
I'm freaking out because Casper and
Annabelle still have so much, like,

501
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:02,480
experimenting to do when they're folding
those banana leaves.

502
00:33:03,260 --> 00:33:05,360
And they need at least ten minutes to
cook.

503
00:33:06,140 --> 00:33:08,720
Okay, yeah, so that leaves them, what,
all of three or four minutes.

504
00:33:09,140 --> 00:33:10,140
Could you do it?

505
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,060
I could do it. Okay, so it can be done.

506
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:13,700
It can be done. It can be done.

507
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,100
But I'm not reading instructions.

508
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,440
They'll be, like, backing and forthing.

509
00:33:19,060 --> 00:33:21,140
Guys, you really need to get a move on.

510
00:33:21,740 --> 00:33:24,100
I'm really worried that you guys aren't
going to finish up.

511
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,380
You have ten minutes left, and that's
the amount of time that you should be

512
00:33:28,380 --> 00:33:29,640
cooking your kwekuchi for.

513
00:33:31,380 --> 00:33:32,800
Come on, Annabelle. Faster.

514
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,000
It's definitely really hard to watch.

515
00:33:35,340 --> 00:33:38,660
There's really not much time left, and
Casper and Annabelle still don't have

516
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:40,240
their kwekuchis in the steamer.

517
00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:44,840
These need time to cook, and they don't
have their kwekuchi wrapped.

518
00:33:45,140 --> 00:33:46,140
Come on, guys, let's go.

519
00:33:46,340 --> 00:33:47,319
Spit it up.

520
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,540
If they don't get these in the steamer,
they won't have them on the plate at

521
00:33:50,540 --> 00:33:51,540
all. Oh, my God.

522
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,880
Oh, my God. I'm so stressed.

523
00:34:00,100 --> 00:34:07,080
Oh, my

524
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:08,080
God.

525
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,980
Time's almost up. I'm feeling really
stressed.

526
00:34:11,219 --> 00:34:13,400
My place in the competition is on the
line right now.

527
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:18,020
If these kwekotchi don't have enough
time to cook, they might actually be

528
00:34:18,020 --> 00:34:19,020
undercooked.

529
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,760
I'm going to be going.

530
00:34:23,300 --> 00:34:24,300
Go on, guys. Push, push.

531
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,300
I know that these quay coches have gone
in late, but I just need to leave them

532
00:34:32,300 --> 00:34:35,860
in the steamer as long as I can. And now
I really need to get my quay lapis cut

533
00:34:35,860 --> 00:34:36,860
and arranged on the plate.

534
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,400
Oh, my dough. I'm just, like, not
familiar with, like, what it's meant to

535
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,420
be like. So I just spent a bit of time
trying to get it right, but I don't have

536
00:34:45,420 --> 00:34:46,540
time, so I just need to crack on.

537
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:48,120
Come on, guys. Let's go.

538
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:55,280
Keep pushing.

539
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,080
Last fight.

540
00:35:00,140 --> 00:35:03,920
The recipe says we need four. I've got
two in the steamer, and I'm quickly just

541
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,160
putting a third together.

542
00:35:05,700 --> 00:35:11,800
But I'm, like, really behind. Like, I
will motor until the absolute end before

543
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,320
I accept any kind of defeat.

544
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:17,560
Come on, guys. You've got to keep going.

545
00:35:17,780 --> 00:35:19,180
Not long left. Just get it out.

546
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:20,740
Make sure it gets on the plate.

547
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,680
Taking my curry puffs out, I think they
look beautiful. They're golden.

548
00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:29,440
So now I need to tip the koi lapis out
of the tray and start cutting it into

549
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,220
this beautiful diamond shape.

550
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:38,380
Post koi lapis looked impeccable. It's
like she literally had a stencil and

551
00:35:38,380 --> 00:35:39,380
that was the piece.

552
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,980
I need seven diamonds on the plate.

553
00:35:46,340 --> 00:35:49,680
Cut it at a 45 degree angle and try to
get three and a half centimeter

554
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,600
diagonally to make it look...

555
00:35:53,530 --> 00:35:57,590
I get my kueh lapis on the plate, and
the shape is coming together really

556
00:35:57,590 --> 00:35:59,890
nicely, and I can see all the layers.

557
00:36:01,430 --> 00:36:05,950
I have no idea how the kueh kochi are
cooked, but I feel very grateful that I

558
00:36:05,950 --> 00:36:07,190
got to learn these techniques.

559
00:36:07,530 --> 00:36:09,130
Hopefully I've done it justice.

560
00:36:09,710 --> 00:36:13,030
Only three minutes to go. Come on, guys.

561
00:36:13,250 --> 00:36:14,250
Let's go.

562
00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:17,050
This is the home stretch. There's no
time left.

563
00:36:17,690 --> 00:36:23,110
I quickly take the curry puffs out and
they are looking perfect. They look

564
00:36:23,110 --> 00:36:27,050
beautiful, flaky, golden brown. I
couldn't be happier with them.

565
00:36:27,410 --> 00:36:28,470
I've always been bad at these.

566
00:36:28,870 --> 00:36:31,110
I need to cut up this quay lapis.

567
00:36:32,310 --> 00:36:34,710
And I'm getting diamonds, but they're
very rough.

568
00:36:35,210 --> 00:36:38,510
I know my quay lapis has major flaws.

569
00:36:39,030 --> 00:36:45,170
And even though my quay cochi don't look
good at all, I'm banking on the fact

570
00:36:45,170 --> 00:36:47,550
that... What's inside is perfect.

571
00:36:48,990 --> 00:36:53,990
I'm hoping that using my instincts and
my gut have kept me safe.

572
00:36:55,490 --> 00:36:56,890
The clock is counting down.

573
00:36:57,690 --> 00:37:00,470
I'm arranging the diamonds on the
platter and I think it's looking pretty

574
00:37:00,470 --> 00:37:04,070
good, but I don't have time to worry
about it because I really need to get my

575
00:37:04,070 --> 00:37:05,070
curry pasta.

576
00:37:05,770 --> 00:37:08,770
But I realise my layers are separated on
my curry pasta.

577
00:37:09,770 --> 00:37:12,810
I just hope it's held together enough so
that the filling isn't ruined.

578
00:37:13,110 --> 00:37:14,650
Come on, guys, you've really got to get
it on the plate.

579
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:20,340
I want to give these kwekotchi as long
to cook as possible, so I'm waiting for

580
00:37:20,340 --> 00:37:22,140
the countdown before I even take them
out.

581
00:37:23,140 --> 00:37:24,280
One minute to go!

582
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:27,840
Oh, my God.

583
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:33,280
Oh, my God. So I've got my curry puffs
on the plate and my kwe lapis. I'm

584
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,760
trying to arrange, I'm trying to get
these diamonds cut as neatly as

585
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:37,760
possible.

586
00:37:38,060 --> 00:37:39,060
God.

587
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,500
It definitely doesn't look like poe's.

588
00:37:41,740 --> 00:37:43,520
Sort of looks like defined layers.

589
00:37:43,860 --> 00:37:44,980
Come on, Annabelle, don't forget.

590
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,360
And you're draining things.

591
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,160
Okay, okay, okay. I need to pull my
kwekotchi out, and I'm just going to

592
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,200
have no idea how it's cooked.

593
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:58,040
Time's up in ten, nine, eight, seven,
six,

594
00:37:58,300 --> 00:38:03,800
five, four, three, two, one.

595
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:05,640
That's it, everyone.

596
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,320
Oh, no, it looks so fugly.

597
00:38:14,570 --> 00:38:17,250
Not good. I feel like I was going really
well just until the end.

598
00:38:19,830 --> 00:38:20,830
Anyway.

599
00:38:21,350 --> 00:38:22,089
That's annoying.

600
00:38:22,090 --> 00:38:24,510
I really wanted that to be a really good
pressure test, but I feel like I

601
00:38:24,510 --> 00:38:25,750
couldn't get everything done in the
time.

602
00:38:26,690 --> 00:38:29,590
It's really disappointing, especially
when you're, like, so close to the end.

603
00:38:30,450 --> 00:38:34,490
They wanted to try and make it till
finals week, but I have a feeling my

604
00:38:34,490 --> 00:38:35,490
time might be over.

605
00:38:39,550 --> 00:38:40,550
I feel like that's right.

606
00:38:40,990 --> 00:38:43,810
I made a lot of hard decisions in this
pressure test.

607
00:38:44,490 --> 00:38:49,930
Making that mistake at the start was a
huge setback, but I decided that it

608
00:38:49,930 --> 00:38:51,730
wasn't going to rule me out.

609
00:38:55,130 --> 00:38:57,290
Hi, Petra. How are you?

610
00:38:58,450 --> 00:39:05,370
I'm hoping that using my instincts and
my gut have kept me safe.

611
00:39:05,790 --> 00:39:10,790
It's a tough ask to do your first ever
pressure test when you're vying for that

612
00:39:10,790 --> 00:39:13,230
final four. So you've done well no
matter what.

613
00:39:13,470 --> 00:39:15,070
Thanks. Thank you.

614
00:39:15,630 --> 00:39:16,830
We're going to taste your dish now.

615
00:39:17,030 --> 00:39:19,690
Thanks, guys. Thank you, Petra. Good
luck. Thanks, Petra.

616
00:39:23,830 --> 00:39:27,470
On looks alone, I think this is quite
rough.

617
00:39:28,390 --> 00:39:32,090
The Queco tea are all in different
shapes.

618
00:39:34,850 --> 00:39:39,030
There's a layer missing out of the queer
lapis, and also it's been cut quite

619
00:39:39,030 --> 00:39:40,030
haphazardly.

620
00:39:41,710 --> 00:39:44,090
I think the curry puff was promising,
though.

621
00:39:45,510 --> 00:39:46,770
I'm looking forward to tasting those.

622
00:39:47,610 --> 00:39:48,870
Let's unwrap these bad boys.

623
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,620
My favorite thing on Petro's plate is
the curry puff. It is brilliant.

624
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:16,640
The seasoning is perfect.

625
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:22,340
The pastry is really crispy, and I love
the little puff layers he's got there.

626
00:40:22,980 --> 00:40:29,740
Now, kwe ko chi, shape was not great,
but really tasty filling and

627
00:40:29,740 --> 00:40:30,760
really good dough.

628
00:40:31,460 --> 00:40:33,360
Kwe lapis was a mega problem.

629
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,180
They weren't cut very well, and...

630
00:40:36,730 --> 00:40:40,730
I've got not just one, but I think a
couple of quite raw layers.

631
00:40:42,450 --> 00:40:44,970
So, two out of three.

632
00:40:47,450 --> 00:40:52,890
Visually, we can see clearly there is a
little bit of differences to your

633
00:40:52,890 --> 00:40:54,050
beautiful mirror display.

634
00:40:55,390 --> 00:40:58,130
What attracts me the most is the
kwekushi.

635
00:40:58,470 --> 00:41:01,130
I absolutely love that texture.

636
00:41:01,610 --> 00:41:02,790
You can enjoy the coconut.

637
00:41:03,050 --> 00:41:04,230
It was just enough.

638
00:41:04,470 --> 00:41:07,010
And that touch of salt, which I was
expecting to have.

639
00:41:08,070 --> 00:41:12,090
Interesting to see whether two out of
three of your dishes in his recreation

640
00:41:12,090 --> 00:41:14,150
is enough to keep him in the
competition.

641
00:41:14,430 --> 00:41:15,430
We just don't know yet.

642
00:41:18,410 --> 00:41:19,410
Good luck, mate.

643
00:41:36,330 --> 00:41:42,450
Quite anxious about bringing the dish in
today to be judged because it being a

644
00:41:42,450 --> 00:41:47,750
Malaysian challenge, you know, being
from a heritage, you know, honestly, I'd

645
00:41:47,750 --> 00:41:50,190
be embarrassed for myself if I went home
on a Malaysian challenge.

646
00:41:51,290 --> 00:41:57,370
I want to make Po proud, my mum and my
grandma. I want to make them proud to

647
00:41:57,370 --> 00:42:00,310
show that I could do this. I really did
it well.

648
00:42:09,930 --> 00:42:10,930
Aaron, how was that?

649
00:42:11,230 --> 00:42:15,590
It was really stressful, but I'm really
grateful that I got to learn this today.

650
00:42:15,830 --> 00:42:16,990
Oh, Aaron, that's so nice.

651
00:42:17,590 --> 00:42:21,870
Honestly, for me, I'm like, this is
priceless heritage.

652
00:42:22,210 --> 00:42:27,070
By the way, I've won a lot in this
competition, and I really don't want to

653
00:42:27,070 --> 00:42:30,870
go home, but if that's the case today,
I'm really happy that I got to learn

654
00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:31,828
this.

655
00:42:31,830 --> 00:42:33,410
Thank you, Aaron. We're going to taste a
dish.

656
00:42:33,670 --> 00:42:35,830
Thank you. Thank you, Aaron.

657
00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:40,780
Well, what do you reckon, guys?

658
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,000
Pretty good.

659
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:48,340
Pretty good. Look at this. Look how
tight those are. Yeah. They're perfectly

660
00:42:48,340 --> 00:42:49,340
triangular.

661
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:53,560
Look at this.

662
00:42:55,260 --> 00:42:56,280
Ooh, satisfying.

663
00:43:03,420 --> 00:43:04,540
Perfect layers.

664
00:43:04,860 --> 00:43:05,860
Yep.

665
00:43:13,610 --> 00:43:16,650
I think Aaron's done a fantastic job.

666
00:43:17,790 --> 00:43:18,790
Here's Que Lapis.

667
00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:24,950
It's cooked all the way through. The
layers are all so even and definitely

668
00:43:24,950 --> 00:43:25,950
passed the peel test.

669
00:43:27,070 --> 00:43:30,270
They taste lovely, full of that
coconutty flavour.

670
00:43:32,050 --> 00:43:36,410
Que Cochi is cooked all the way through
and his shapes are pretty spot on. The

671
00:43:36,410 --> 00:43:38,050
flavour of the coconut is lovely.

672
00:43:39,070 --> 00:43:40,070
Curry puff.

673
00:43:40,410 --> 00:43:42,790
He's cooked it really well. The
crimping's beautiful.

674
00:43:43,510 --> 00:43:49,510
I really enjoyed peeling the perfect
triangular package of that banana leaf

675
00:43:49,510 --> 00:43:56,110
wrapped around this lovely dough of the
kwekkochi and the filling of the spiral

676
00:43:56,110 --> 00:43:56,968
curry puff.

677
00:43:56,970 --> 00:43:59,030
It's really fragrant and rich.

678
00:44:00,050 --> 00:44:05,110
I'm so happy for Aaron that these dishes
that he has a memory of but no

679
00:44:05,110 --> 00:44:08,210
experience making have been so
successful.

680
00:44:10,030 --> 00:44:12,350
I think that boy is going to go very
far.

681
00:44:13,050 --> 00:44:14,050
Good luck, Annabelle.

682
00:44:15,530 --> 00:44:18,430
I'm feeling lots of different emotions.

683
00:44:18,750 --> 00:44:21,710
My heart's beating in my throat, which
I've never had before.

684
00:44:22,810 --> 00:44:26,110
I know that that quake hot sheet is
going to be inconsistently and

685
00:44:26,110 --> 00:44:28,570
undercooled. Like, it was in the steamer
for five minutes.

686
00:44:30,890 --> 00:44:32,670
Hi, Annabelle. Hi.

687
00:44:33,250 --> 00:44:34,250
How are you?

688
00:44:34,830 --> 00:44:39,030
I just hope that this bad cook is not my
ticket out of here, but I'm definitely

689
00:44:39,030 --> 00:44:42,010
having to come to terms with that might
be a possibility.

690
00:44:44,290 --> 00:44:45,510
Annabelle, how was that?

691
00:44:46,110 --> 00:44:51,990
That was really great and really fun
until the last ten minutes. Until it

692
00:44:51,990 --> 00:44:53,270
wasn't. Until it wasn't.

693
00:44:53,650 --> 00:44:56,470
Which bits of your dish are you
particularly worried about?

694
00:44:57,020 --> 00:45:01,320
The kwekotchi, for sure. I basically
threw them on the plate and they look a

695
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,200
bit battered and bruised. There's only
three.

696
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,840
And I am really worried.

697
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:10,120
I think this potentially could send me
home.

698
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:15,920
And I sort of am trying really hard to,
like, grapple the emotion of, like,

699
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,180
being really proud of how far I've come.

700
00:45:18,580 --> 00:45:23,140
But obviously really don't want to go
home at this point. Like, I would love

701
00:45:23,140 --> 00:45:24,058
to stay.

702
00:45:24,060 --> 00:45:27,380
Because I definitely want to explore a
career in cooking.

703
00:45:28,700 --> 00:45:30,860
There's definitely a fire that's lit
within me.

704
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,720
Look, Annabelle, we're going to test
your food. Thank you so much.

705
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,220
Thank you, Annabelle. Thank you. All the
best.

706
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:39,440
Thank you.

707
00:45:42,060 --> 00:45:45,000
I think Annabelle's done a very
reasonable job.

708
00:45:45,240 --> 00:45:46,900
I think the curry puffs look beautiful.

709
00:45:49,580 --> 00:45:50,840
Let's have a look at the quick achieve.

710
00:45:51,980 --> 00:45:53,580
I have a feeling hers is going to be the
most raw.

711
00:45:55,820 --> 00:45:58,080
She had the lead time in Demo.

712
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,620
No, that's... That's fine.

713
00:46:09,820 --> 00:46:11,160
That's completely under, isn't it?

714
00:46:11,980 --> 00:46:13,880
Like, it's a big chunk of under. Yeah.

715
00:46:20,910 --> 00:46:25,650
There are some obvious flaws with
Annabelle's snacks. The most glaringly

716
00:46:25,650 --> 00:46:32,410
obvious one for me is the kuekochi. You
can see that almost a third is

717
00:46:32,410 --> 00:46:33,410
undercooked dough.

718
00:46:33,590 --> 00:46:36,070
And it's a shame because her filling is
lovely.

719
00:46:36,790 --> 00:46:42,070
It's really rich. It has all of those
salty, coconutty, palm sugar flavours.

720
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:48,800
And then the Cuellapis, you can see that
orange layer melting into the red. It's

721
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:54,320
still pasty. I can't actually pull the
top layers away from each other. And

722
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,680
it's a shame because she was going so
well.

723
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,220
Spirulva pastry is absolutely, for me,
phenomenal.

724
00:47:12,620 --> 00:47:13,940
It's very well fried.

725
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:18,260
The filling is just perfect. The
potatoes are lovely and cooked.

726
00:47:18,740 --> 00:47:21,580
And I get the curry. I love this lovely
curry lemon.

727
00:47:22,740 --> 00:47:27,060
She's crimped those. It is unbelievably
good. It's the best example of the

728
00:47:27,060 --> 00:47:32,440
crimping. So great curry puff, but both
the kuehs are definitely very flawed.

729
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:36,240
The inconsistency worries me. I'm
worried. I'm worried for Annabelle.

730
00:47:40,460 --> 00:47:43,000
Today's cook was definitely more
challenging than I thought it would be.

731
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:47,760
There's a lot of skill involved with
juggling multiple tasks at the same

732
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,720
time, especially when they're components
that you've never tried before.

733
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,420
Hi, Casper. Hello.

734
00:47:56,240 --> 00:48:01,120
There is doubts in my mind around cook
on the koi kochi and how my layers are

735
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:02,260
separated on my curry puff.

736
00:48:03,900 --> 00:48:06,720
Casper, how was that pressure test for
you? Are you pleased with the result?

737
00:48:06,940 --> 00:48:09,120
I'm pretty pleased, I would say.

738
00:48:10,580 --> 00:48:13,740
Considering there's a few steps where I
fell behind, I think I managed to catch

739
00:48:13,740 --> 00:48:18,140
up pretty well. I found that second gear
when I needed to. If you do go home

740
00:48:18,140 --> 00:48:20,180
today, how would that feel?

741
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,520
I think that would be the hardest one.

742
00:48:24,740 --> 00:48:28,180
In terms of elimination, when you could
go, it's just missing that last week.

743
00:48:29,500 --> 00:48:31,400
It would be a tough pill to swallow.

744
00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:35,720
Thank you, Kasper. We're going to take
now. Thanks, Kasper.

745
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:37,420
Well done. Thank you.

746
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:38,820
I do spot an issue.

747
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:44,560
The curry puff pastry, if it's not been
laminated strongly enough, that could

748
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,260
very well taste very oily. It's probably
filled with oil.

749
00:48:49,940 --> 00:48:51,860
Yep, they've all got a little crack in
them.

750
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:53,600
So that's a problem.

751
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:55,200
Not good.

752
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:24,640
I think he's done a great job on the
curry lapis. The layers are peeling off

753
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:25,640
really well.

754
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,740
On appearances, the curry puff looked
great.

755
00:49:29,420 --> 00:49:35,440
But on closer inspection, a lot of that
lamination has come apart and a lot of

756
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:39,600
oils entered into all those crevices. So
when you bite into it, I'm getting oil

757
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,860
oozing out of the pastry, which is a
little bit unpleasant.

758
00:49:43,740 --> 00:49:49,200
Look, I think he has potentially done
one of the better jobs of the curry

759
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:54,900
lapis. When it comes to the kuekochi,
the filling is, it's the right

760
00:49:54,900 --> 00:49:58,740
consistency. And I just, I love those
fibrous shredded coconut.

761
00:50:00,260 --> 00:50:05,040
He's done a decent job of the dough
around the edges, but he definitely

762
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,280
hasn't cooked it for long enough, which
is a shame.

763
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:15,400
I agree, the kuekochi dough was maybe a
touch understeamed on the... What is the

764
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,020
bottom of yours? Just a little bit
understeamed, just a touch.

765
00:50:18,260 --> 00:50:19,260
Yours isn't as bad.

766
00:50:20,110 --> 00:50:21,570
In all, it's tasty.

767
00:50:22,030 --> 00:50:23,810
I love the coconut filling.

768
00:50:24,450 --> 00:50:25,930
It's not too sweet.

769
00:50:26,750 --> 00:50:29,050
This lovely equinox lapis.

770
00:50:30,290 --> 00:50:32,570
I think it's done a very lovely job.

771
00:50:33,030 --> 00:50:35,650
In all, I am very satisfied.

772
00:50:39,850 --> 00:50:42,390
My goodness, you did me so proud.

773
00:50:42,930 --> 00:50:48,450
I've been wanting to create a
Malaysian-style pressure test for the

774
00:50:48,450 --> 00:50:49,450
longest time.

775
00:50:50,010 --> 00:50:54,350
And watching you guys move around was
just so meaningful to me, to see the

776
00:50:54,350 --> 00:51:01,130
desire in your eyes and in your
movements to do honour to their

777
00:51:01,130 --> 00:51:06,870
recipes. And I think no matter what
happens today, you absolutely all did

778
00:51:06,870 --> 00:51:08,110
justice to my Malaysian side.

779
00:51:09,650 --> 00:51:12,550
Put your hands together for Po Ling
Biao.

780
00:51:22,730 --> 00:51:26,270
With three snacks to plate up and
nowhere to hide, there were some

781
00:51:26,270 --> 00:51:27,270
significant challenges.

782
00:51:29,230 --> 00:51:32,570
And sadly, two of you had faults in your
dishes.

783
00:51:36,290 --> 00:51:40,750
Annabelle, you showed excellent
technique on the curry puff.

784
00:51:41,470 --> 00:51:45,310
However, the layers of your kwe lapis
were undercooked and pasty.

785
00:51:47,030 --> 00:51:50,950
And the dough in all your kwe kochi was
cooked inconsistently.

786
00:51:54,220 --> 00:51:57,300
Casper, you did a great job on the curry
like this.

787
00:51:58,620 --> 00:52:01,580
But your kwekkochi was undercooked on
the bottom.

788
00:52:03,900 --> 00:52:06,740
And your curry puff lamination had flaws
in it.

789
00:52:09,240 --> 00:52:14,300
It was a very difficult decision.

790
00:52:15,700 --> 00:52:20,800
It came down to the one who had the
biggest error.

791
00:52:22,830 --> 00:52:25,050
I'm sorry to say that was you.

792
00:52:32,310 --> 00:52:33,310
Annabelle.

793
00:52:37,250 --> 00:52:41,430
Unfortunately, your time in the
competition has come to an end.

794
00:53:00,549 --> 00:53:01,549
Oh, no.

795
00:53:03,070 --> 00:53:04,150
You've got me going now.

796
00:53:05,270 --> 00:53:06,330
Oh, man.

797
00:53:06,550 --> 00:53:07,770
I can't stop.

798
00:53:09,930 --> 00:53:15,550
Annabelle, it's such a, like, bitter,
sweet

799
00:53:15,550 --> 00:53:22,210
experience for me today to be able to
design

800
00:53:22,210 --> 00:53:25,250
that challenge and to have to see one of
you go.

801
00:53:27,310 --> 00:53:31,450
It has been so wonderful getting to know
you and see you flourish in the kitchen.

802
00:53:33,790 --> 00:53:37,770
Thank you.

803
00:53:38,130 --> 00:53:39,770
I actually don't even know where to
start.

804
00:53:40,410 --> 00:53:44,490
Being here has just been like a dream
that I've had for a really long time.

805
00:53:45,090 --> 00:53:49,450
And I think only just in the last few
weeks I really realised and took some

806
00:53:49,450 --> 00:53:53,870
time to reflect on kind of how amazing
it was that I was like standing here in

807
00:53:53,870 --> 00:53:54,870
this position.

808
00:53:54,890 --> 00:53:58,760
So that's... It's kind of been a real
priceless moment in my life and I will

809
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:03,280
treasure this kitchen, like, and
everything that comes with it.

810
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,040
Sadly, Annabelle, it's time to say
goodbye.

811
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,180
I'm so proud of where I've come.

812
00:54:10,900 --> 00:54:15,660
And I've proved already to myself that,
like, coming in every day, learning so

813
00:54:15,660 --> 00:54:19,500
much, putting yourself under such
immense pressure, I can do this.

814
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,260
At least I won the Women's League.

815
00:54:22,500 --> 00:54:23,500
Yeah.

816
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,640
I am going to go back to work as a nurse
because I actually have been really

817
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,480
missing it, but I am going to then have
a tough conversation with my boss and be

818
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,280
like, hey, can I drop down my hours so
that I can also become a chef and I'm

819
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:36,280
going to be a nurse chef?

820
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,960
And if that's not a thing, I'm just
going to make it a thing. Give it up for

821
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:42,960
Anna!

822
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:49,080
I had a bloody ripper time.

823
00:54:51,300 --> 00:54:52,900
I am sad it's over.

824
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:56,740
But it's just the beginning.

825
00:55:00,720 --> 00:55:03,480
Sunday night on MasterChef Australia.

826
00:55:05,180 --> 00:55:08,960
The Duchess of Sassejo, Meghan Markle!

827
00:55:11,740 --> 00:55:13,820
It's a fairytale moment.

828
00:55:14,220 --> 00:55:15,220
What is happening?

829
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:16,780
For everyone.

830
00:55:17,580 --> 00:55:21,960
I love incredible produce and
farm-to-table.

831
00:55:22,180 --> 00:55:24,600
I'm really excited for this. Thank you
so much. Good luck, Erin.

832
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,400
Like, what is my life?

833
00:55:27,660 --> 00:55:34,320
And one of these amazing contestants
will get their happy ending with a

834
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:36,620
spot in the semifinal.

835
00:55:37,100 --> 00:55:41,500
Rubbing my temples because I can't
understand how this is so good.
