We have a special Team Challenge on MasterChef 2014 tonight, as the home cooks will be paired up (most likely with their biggest arch rival) and put to the test of creating a surf and turf dish on MasterChef Season 5! They may not like each other, but can these home cooks on Master Chef 2014 work together to ensure their safety? Find out during our MasterChef 2014 Recap and see who went home on MasterChef 2014 tonight with us!

MasterChef 2014 Season 5 Spoilers - Week 7 Preview 8

Last week on MasterChef 2014 Season 5, the home cooks faced a Mystery Box Challenge that had them making a dish used canned foods! They had no clue what was in the cans, so some opened all the cans and others took the risk and used ingredients after opening only a few of the cans! It worked for Elizabeth, who won the challenge and got to pick the home cooks to recreate the dishes from MasterChef winners Luca Manfe and Alexander Weiss. In a shocker, we saw Tyler grab the wrong dish out of the fridge and turn in a dish that was not made by him. This was enough to disqualify him for breaking the rules, even though he did not intentionally do it, or did he?

Here we go…

TEAM CHALLENGE: The home cooks arrive in the kitchen. They will be cooking in pairs and Courtney had the best dish last challenge, so she gets to pick the pairings and does not have to cook tonight! The pairings:

  • Team 1 – Christian and Francis B.
  • Team 2 – Jaimee and Elizabeth
  • Team 3 – Victoria and Christine
  • Team 4 – Cutter and Dan
  • Team 5 – Willie and Daniel
  • Team 6 – Ahran and Leslie
  • Team 7 – Francis L. and Elise

The two worst dishes from the teams will face off in the Pressure Test! They will serve one dish, which happens to be a Surf and Turf dish! They have 60 minutes to make their dish, but only have five minutes in the pantry to decide their dish and grab their ingredients and cannot return to the pantry! Cutter is struggling with Dan and he does not think their dishes go together well.

Time runs out in the pantry and the home cooks get started on their dishes. Cutter is pissed because Dan went off in the pantry and they have nothing to work with. Gordon Ramsay tells them to talk and breathe and figure something out. Ahran has made Leslie her bitch and they seem to be getting along, for now. Courtney thought Christian and Francis B. would butt heads, but they are making it work. The 60 minutes is up and time to present their dishes!

JUDGING – 

AHRAN & LESLIE – Graham said the flavors are great and really well thought out. The two of them have worked out their differences. Joe said it is harmonious and excellent job by both of them. Chef Ramsay said it is done well.

CUTTER & DAN – Chef Ramsay asks what that is and he is embarrassed for them. Cutter is blaming Dan for the failed dish and he had no ideas and he told him the proteins don’t go together. Chef Ramsay said it is one of the worst dishes in the competition so far. Joe grabs the trash can and makes them throw it out!!!

FRANCIS L. & ELISE – Chef Ramsay said visually it looks like a mess and they did not work the fat off the lamb and he is unimpressed with both of them.

JAIMEE & ELIZABETH – Joe said everything is seasoned perfectly and it captures the spirit of the challenge.

WILLIE & DANIEL – Chef Ramsay said they captured the spirit, but there is a little bit too much going on. The flavor is there and it has character.

CHRISTINE & VICTORIA – Graham said the plate looks beautiful. It is a dish that is labor intensive and it is a really good dish and they are shining.

CHRISTIAN & FRANCIS B. – Chef Ramsay said he is underwhelmed and they both could have done this dish on their own in just 20 minutes. The steak is bland. They both have one foot out the door on MasterChef 2014!

RESULTS: The winning dish belongs to Victoria and Christine, so they are safe tonight! The other teams safe tonight are Jaimee & Elizabeth, Danaiel & Willie and Leslie & Ahran. The bottom three are Cutter & Dan, Francis L. & Elise and Christian & Francis B. The judges discuss the dishes and Elise & Francis L. are safe tonight also, so Dan, Cutter, Christian and Francis B. will take part in the Pressure Test on Master Chef 2014!

PRESSURE TEST: They will be making spring rolls and a sauce to go with them. They all get the same ingredients and they have 60 minutes to make six spring rolls and dipping sauce! Christian and Cutter have never made a spring roll, so they are both nervous. Dan feels this is up his alley and he should be good, but the judges may be harder on him for this one. Dan is using a pasta maker to get his dough real thin, so that could help. One of Cutter’s spring rolls breaks in the fryer and he is freaking out! Francis B. does not have a hot fryer, so they are not cooking properly and he decides to fry them in the pan!

JUDGING – 

CHRISTIAN – Graham said the flavor is great and the vegetables are nice, but maybe some more evenly rolled out. He said they are better than average.

FRANCIS B. – Joe said the ratio of filling is way out of proportion and they are very greasy. He said it is not complete and totally out of balance.

DAN – Chef Ramsay said the sauce is nice, but the casing it too much and he was expecting more from him. Too much dough on the spring roll, so the pasta maker did not help him.

CUTTER – Joe said they are not crispy, no filling and all dough. They are very sweet and no acid in there.

RESULTS: The judges discuss the four spring rolls. Christian had the best spring rolls tonight, so he is safe. They expected more from Dan, but his sauce was amazing and it is the only thing that saved him tonight. Cutter is save with a lucky escape, but Francis B. fried his spring roll twice and that was his downfall, as he is sent home!
