Peter Gilmore

Bennelong Restaurant's Peter Gilmore demonstrates how to create an intricate and tasty seafood dish. With no recipe, contestants must use total recall to perfectly replicate the dish or be eliminated.

The semi-finalists enter the kitchen to compete for the chance to win one of the two places in the grand finale. But before they begin the judges have a couple of surprise announcements.

The contestants face a particularly demanding pressure test involving an iconic MasterChef dish which is Peter Gilmore's snow egg from season two.

In a surprise elimination challenge, the top five must each cook a dish from a five-course meal in two hours.
