Episode 1
Under the watchful eye of judges Poppy O’Toole and Kerth Gumbs, the first five budding young chefs must cook a dish that represents their personality on a plate.
The first five budding young cooks arrive for their initial taste of the Young MasterChef kitchen. They are a vegan entrepreneur from Knebworth, a DJ from Coventry, a paediatric nurse from Birmingham, a single mum from Dundee and a psychology student from Hackney.
Under the watchful eye of judges Poppy O’Toole and Kerth Gumbs, the contestants must cook a dish that represents their personality on a plate. The recipes must show their mentors exactly who they are as cooks and prove they are ready to face the gruelling competition ahead.
Only three cooks can make it through to the knockout stages of the competition. For two of them, their Young MasterChef journey is over.
