Celebrity MasterChef Christmas Cook-Off 2022 episode 2: Dancer AJ Pritchard, actor Chizzy Akudolu, drag performer Kitty Scott-Claus and reality star and The X Factor: Celebrity winner Megan McKenna face two tough culinary challenges in this year’s second festive special. Their first task is all about what to do with Christmas leftovers. Each celebrity has been given their own seasonal leftover from which to create a dish, and to help John and Gregg taste and judge is a very special guest judge, former Celebrity MasterChef champion Lisa Faulkner.
Then it’s party time as the four celebrities are challenged to cook a dinner that they would serve at a New Year’s celebration. Expect plenty of laughs, some great Christmas banter and some surprisingly good food as the celebrities all do their best to be crowned the Celebrity MasterChef festive champion 2022.
Deck the halls, stuff the turkey and break out the Christmas fizz as eight of the most memorable celebrities from past series return to compete in two festive-themed Celebrity MasterChef specials, hosted by Gregg Wallace and John Torode. In the first special, Happy Mondays legend Bez, athletics world champion Iwan Thomas, pop star Josh Cuthbert and opera superstar Lesley Garrett compete against each other to see who can take home the title of Christmas champion and the Celebrity MasterChef Golden Whisk trophy.
The celebrities face two Christmas-themed tests, and it’s party time in the MasterChef kitchen as the first involves cocktails and canapes. The celebrities have to recreate and embellish two Christmas canape recipes from ingredients found in a Secret Santa present box. Alongside their canapes, they must present their favourite Christmas cocktail to the judges. But, because it’s a special occasion, they must present their cocktails and canapes not only to John and Gregg but also to a very special guest judge, 2021’s Celebrity MasterChef Christmas champion Judi Love.
Then they are all challenged to cook their ultimate Christmas dinner, using well-known seasonal ingredients. The celebrities can be as creative as they like, so expect plenty of laughs, some great Christmas banter, a bit of a sing-song and some surprisingly good food.
Celebrity MasterChef Christmas Cook-Off 2022 episode 2
Celebrity MasterChef is a cooking competition television series that features celebrities as contestants. The format of the show is similar to the original MasterChef series, in which the celebrities compete in various cooking challenges and are judged by a panel of professional chefs. Celebrity MasterChef is often broadcast as a spin-off of the main MasterChef series and has been aired in many countries around the world. In the United States, Celebrity MasterChef has aired on the FOX network. The show typically involves challenges in which the celebrities must prepare dishes for a panel of judges, and the judges score the dishes based on taste, presentation, and creativity. The celebrity with the lowest score is typically eliminated each week until only a few contestants remain, and the winner is crowned Celebrity MasterChef.
Nothing says Christmas quite like a festive feast, so fans will be thrilled that MasterChef is coming back for another Christmas special. This festive season, the BBC has announced that judges Gregg Wallace and John Torode will once again be inviting past celebrity contestants back into the kitchen. There, the all-star line-up will take part in a cook-off, as they show off their culinary skills in a bid to be named and handed the Golden Whisk trophy.
