Episode 19: The Finale Part Two

## Introduction

Following on from the previous episode Jazz, Jamie and Troy were invited into the ring by Ramsey who informed them of the parameters of the challenge, each chef would produce a hot appetizer, a cold appetizer, a fish entree, a chicken entree and a beef entree with the lowest scoring chef being eliminated at the end.

## Final Challenge

The Sous Chefs led the three finalists to a kitchen in the arena where they got to work on their dishes with their families watching on from the audience, once time was up they presented their dishes and the cold appetizer was judged by Australian Chef Curtis Stone which had Jazz excited since she was a big fan of his from Master Chef Australia, Jazz's beetroot and goats cheese salad earned praise for it's flavor and a solid eight out of ten whilst Jamie's prawn ceviche was "almost flawless" and earned a 9/10, finally Troy's dish earned a eight out of ten as his Scallop Tartare with rich in flavor.

Judging the hot apps was chef Dominique Crenn, Jazz's Mushroom Risotto was praised for it's flavors and complexity earning her the first perfect score of the evening but Jamie would soon catch up thanks to her vegetarian pasta dish earning another perfect score and Troy's beef ravioli tied Jazz's score with an eight out of ten, judging the fish entree was Wolfgang Puck which made all three competing chefs feel the pressure but Jazz's Middle Eastern Salmon Dish earned high praise for it's flavors and the cook on the salmon earning her another perfect score, Jamie's pan roasted halibut fell just behind as her sauce was too acidic earning her a 9/10 and Troy's Rad Snapper dish earned him a 8/10 as his fish was just a little bit overcooked.

The chicken round was judged by former Masterchef Judge Graham Elliot and he broke Jazz's perfect streak as he found her spicy chicken breast to be delicious but lacking refinement, Jamie's Chicken Roulade was deemed to be perfect and scored her another perfect score whilst Troy's BBQ Chicken Breast was deemed delicious but lacking in refinement.

Judging the final round was former Hell's Kitchen Sous Chef Andi von Willigan, Jazz's ribcap was given a perfect score for the perfect medium rare cook on the steak whilst Jamie's New York Strip was also deemed perfect, Troy's road would end here as his Ribeye was deemed overcooked and earned him a 7/10, awarding Jamie the challenge.

## Team Select

Once Troy stepped down Ramsey then introduced the returning contestants: Zara, Max, Steve, Kayla, Troy, Amy (replacing Mike who couldn't make it), Harper (replacing Carlos who couldn't make it) and Carson in that order, Jamie got first pick and picked Max for her team as she felt that they would work well together whilst Jazz countered by picking Zara (who admitted that she was just happy to be here), Jamie then picked Steve for her team followed by Jazz picking Troy for hers, Kayla was then selected for Jamie's team followed by Amy being picked for Jazz's team, Jamie then attempted to throw a spanner in the works for Jazz by picking Carson for her team leaving Jazz with Harper as her final pick by default as Jamie still remembered the argument that Amy and Harper had on Harper's last night in the competition.

Ramsey gave no comment on Troy's elimination and he received no coat hanging,
