The Premiere Of ‘MasterChef’ Retold Via Hilarious Tweets
Married At First Sight is over and MasterChef is here: consider your TV officially detoxed. Last night, MasterChef returned to our screens to remind us that life is certainly better when it’s around.

It’s been over a year since the All-Stars season and boy, we’re ready for some fresh meat!
Let’s Recap Last Night’s MasterChef Episode Through Hilarious Tweets
New season means new contestants and new aprons. And in this socially distanced introduction, Melissa, Jock and Andy tasked the 26 wannabe chefs with cooking a meal in 75 minutes that will impress them. And they better deliver because they’re only looking for 24 finalists.
Up first, we had Brent. The blokey, boilermaker from Queensland.
He’s a good cook and he’s unafraid to show emotion? We love him!!!
Boiler beard man is adorable. Please don’t be problematic. #MasterChefAU

After Brent, we were introduced to Therese.
And we love her too! Are we going to fall in love with everyone? Probably! Damn this wholesome show…
Damnit, now I’m attached to Therese. This is going to be an awesome season. #MasterChefAU

After Therese, we were introduced to the sweetest man in the whole wide world, Tommy.
He made his mother’s chicken congee recipe for the judges and proceeded to call her straight after. At this point, I cried for a second time.
Fuck off. Both of them with tears in their eyes. The little bow. The phone call to his mum. Why am I’m already crying?? #MasterChefAU pic.twitter.com/Xl3jyihPAo

And yeah, that congee looked amazing.

Then Scott came on in and made a truffle choux croquant.
Here, I looked at my Muscle Chef meal and thought… huh, I need to do better.
me: *judging the shit out of all these dishes*

Then we meet Ben, a flight attendant, who decides to challenge himself in the first episode of the season.
But, did the risk pay off? No. He’s met with criticism from the judges and claps back but not before Melissa puts him in his place.

“I would invite you to listen to us” is the most polite STFU I’ve ever heard. #MasterChefAU

After this rejection, we enter the montage of the judges telling some of the cooks to “cook again” tomorrow because their meal wasn’t up to scratch today.

Now it’s time to meet Minoli.
This icon somehow made a six-dish Sri Lankan feast in just 75 minutes. How she did it? Who knows? But, I’m stanning.
Reason #213 I'm not on #MasterChefAU
Minoli cooks 6 complimenting dishes is 75 minutes

Then we met Kishwar.
Sigh. Kishwar really pulled at my heartstrings.
Not to be dramatic but I’d die for Kishwar #MasterChefAU

All she wants to do in life is write a Bangladeshi cookbook to pass down her culture and I’m not crying, you are. When the judges raved about her dish and asked her where she’d been all this time, she replied saying: “Just at home.” Please, the waterworks are too much.
Oh god, that mother presenting that meal, being asked “where you’ve been” and cry-replying “just at home”, I AM HOWLING. ? #MasterChefAU
— Benjamin Law 羅旭能 (@mrbenjaminlaw) April 19, 2021
“Just at home”
Omg I am ruined ???#MasterChefAU
