POLICY WIRE — City, Country — This year’s Celebrity MasterChef has showcased some exceptional culinary talents. Hannah Twiggs has selected three remarkable recipes from the contestants that are sure to impress.

Emily Steel, known for her role in Gladiators, brought her Thai heritage to the competition with a fiery Thai steak. Her dish, featuring fillet steak marinated in soy and oyster sauce, accompanied by sticky rice, papaya salad, and nam jim, left a lasting impression on the judges.

Former Royal Ballet dancer Eric Underwood found his stride with American soul food. His Scotch bonnet fried chicken with Parmesan mash and chickpea pancake was a highlight, though a red wine gravy mishap ended his journey in the quarter-finals. His famous mac and cheese, a nod to his mother’s cooking, paired lobster with four cheeses and hot honey cornbread.

Max Fosh, a YouTuber and comedian, presented a chicken parmo that reflected his beige food upbringing. His dish, consisting of breaded chicken topped with tomato sauce, béchamel, and Red Leicester, served with garlic-salted chips, was a hit.
