A meat pie and a vague pun he can grind to dust. It’s a beautiful moment of triumph over adversity. That’s like me skipping into a World Of Music, sitting down at a piano, swinging my saveloy fingers about and coming up one season short of a full Vivaldi. If you don't know what we're talking about when we say childhood veggie sides, then your parents didn't steam carrots and broccoli in the microwave, giving it a weirdly soft, wet consistency. There was weird chemistry going on all over the kitchen.

The judges didn’t give a shit.

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie. MasterChef Australia airs on Network 10, Sunday to Thursday.

Simon Toohey reminded an entire nation of their childhood veggie sides with his Naked Broccoli on last night's MasterChef. Simon Toohey reminded an entire nation of their childhood veggie sides with his Naked Broccoli on last night's MasterChef. Simon Toohey, third place in 2019, was eliminated on tonight's episode of MasterChef, narrowly missing out on a spot in the top ten.

As Simon said in the episode, he wanted to make something with a bit of texture to it so that you know you're eating broccoli — not mush!

God help anyone paired up with Poh in that godawful Twins challenge.

Media Release. The Guardian Australia writers couldn’t make up their minds about the damn vegetable. As we do every MasterChef season, we have now reached the point in the competition where chefs are no longer motivated purely by the fear of finishing a truly humiliating 17th, and instead begin believing that they might actually have a half-sniff of winning this whole shebang. Was the dish she won her first team challenge on still technically noodles? And not a moment too soon, either. If that ridiculous Twins challenge and Poh’s uncontrollable chaotic energy combined wind up costing King Reece his place in the competition I swear – I  *S*W*E*A*R*. You just cannot get away with dishing up the soggy brocc, my man. It’s been too long with out a sexual innuendo. Remove from heat and strain into a jug.

Reserve florets. In pictures: Every contestant who left MasterChef. Not even the MasterChef Twitter account could sell that over the line.

The honest-to-god biggest shock of the series was that Poh didn’t reveal a completely different dish when their cloches were removed pre-judging.

ELIMINATED: Simon Toohey.
Remove from oven and set aside to cool. As Simon said in the episode, he wanted to make something with a bit of texture to it so that you know you're eating broccoli — not mush! Simon was sent home just short of the top 10 as a result of the overcooked dish, which he himself noted may have spent a little too long in the sous vide bath. For the Butter Poached Cod, remove skin from the cod and season the cod and the skin for 15 minutes prior to cooking.

Brief smashed.

Our veggie king has delivered! Place the butter and garlic into a medium saucepan and place over a very low heat. Get fucked. MasterChef 2019, Season 11, Ep 1 MasterChef 2019, Season 11, Ep 1 … Vegetable maestro and all round top guy Simon Toohey just missed out on making the MasterChef top 10 on Sunday night, but the chef has revealed that life after the show isn't as glamorous as you may think. Retain butter in the saucepan and cook over a medium heat until butter begins to brown. Put that shit in footy stadium bain maries immediately.

Look on these Power Rankings, ye Mighty, and despair! While it inventively used broccoli in many ways, it failed to live up to the standards set by Reynold Poernomo's flawless Cherry Ripe-inspired dessert, or the flavours in Tessa Boersma and Sarah Tiong's dishes. Reynold and Kahn on the same bench and both wondering wtf to do with the brief is incredibly funny, HOW HAVE WE GONE SO LONG WITHOUT THIS WHOLESOME CHEMISTRY #MasterChefAU, There's like 10 pohs looking in the oven tonight #Masterchefau, JESS WOULD BE PERFECT FOR THIS CHALLENGE COZ SHE'S A CUTIE PIE BUT YOU ASSHOLES SENT HER HOME. Season with salt. This writer thinks so. An absolute catastrophe.

The challenge in the second round of Elimination was to make a dish that represented Australia to them in just 60 minutes, with Simon saying he wanted to pay tribute to local producers and vegetables and shining a light on sustainable food practices. But in a way, Simon's Naked Broccoli hit the brief more than anyone could have anticipated — what's more (White) Australian than eating a plate of strangely soft broccoli? Simon’s “naked broccoli” was deemed the least impressive dish and he said adios form the competition. That said, the pie she put up in Sunday’s elimination challenge? Is underwhelming broccoli a redundant statement?

Much as it was genuinely heartbreaking to see a treasured memory from Nan brought onto the show only to have it fall short of the mark, I guarantee you – there is not a single doubt in my mind – that there is a solid 15 minutes of cut footage featuring Andy Allen waltzing around the room shouting things like “her Nan’s NAME is PYE?????? ????????
