The heat is on—literally—in this week’s MasterChef Australia, as the remaining cooks face a taste test that could send them packing. Elimination Challenge: Laksa Taste Test, airing Sunday, 15 June at 7:30 PM AEST on Network 10, brings one of Australia’s most celebrated Malaysian chefs into the kitchen to oversee a culinary showdown centered around the iconic Southeast Asian soup.
The challenge is simple, but deceptively tricky: identify the key ingredients in a laksa dish. The first four cooks to misidentify a component will face a sudden-death cook-off, fighting for their spot in the competition. Expect nerves to fray and palates to be pushed to the limit as the pressure mounts.
This elimination challenge sticks to the classic playbook: big-name guest chef, intricate flavors, and the ever-present threat of elimination. It’s a recipe for success, and one that will likely leave us craving both laksa and the next episode.
