In tonight’s Masterchef Junior episode, it is down to Top 10. All of the chefs come out to the kitchen. The judges then arrive. They will have a hot challenge! They plan to break up into teams to make jalapeño poppers. Aaron shows them all first how to make the perfect popper. They then break into three teams; the red, yellow and green team.
The timer is set for 15 minutes. They begin. The teams start assembling their poppers A’Dan is having a little trouble. The red team is beginning to fight with one another. The challenge ends. The judges comment on the red team’s nastiness towards one another. It is not appropriate.
The green team has done great. But the yellow really excelled. The red team now needs to compete in another challenge. Gordon and the judges send the green and yellow teams to the upstairs where they will watch the challenge.
The new challenge is cooking a dish with crab. When the chefs pick up the top of their boxes they squeal. Gordon comes over and shows them how to dismantle their crabs. Some of the chefs make faces. They get to work making their own dishes with crab. Ivy cheers them on from the top. They have 60 minutes.
Time is running out. Ciara is struggling to plate her food. A’Dan’s food is falling apart. The clock is up. Ciara is called to the front. They taste her food. It is lacking flavor. A’Dan is asked to come to the front next with his crab cakes. His plating is sloppy. His food is lacking. They are not impressed.
Cruz comes up with his crab and pasta dish. He looks happy. They think he did a great job. Eva brings up her dish next. They appreciate how much she pushes herself. They complement her plating and the taste. Eva smiles proudly.
Molly brings up her dish. Gordon notes her plating is bad. Aaron is wondering what is going on with her. Daphne doesn’t care for the dish. The judges meet on the side to determine who will be eliminated. It’s down to A’Dan, Molly and Ciara. All three are not safe. Gordon reveals it is Ciara who is going home. She starts to tear up before hugging everyone goodbye.
THE END!
