Masterchef - contestants please take note !!

As an avid foodie, I love the programme, obv. But contestants, WHY do you put two Continents on one plate? With the exception of definitely not home-made ChipsNCurry sauce (I sometimes enjoy a hedonistic lifestyle full of culinary adventure), it generally doesn’t work.

Contestants - when did you ever think that unglazed/unbuttered and therefore untasty vegetables are going to be enjoyable?

And why oh why do you blight a perfectly good hot course with a cold salad or a bush sized portion of herbs on top?

Don’t get me wrong, a delicious bowl of Moussaka served with a side of Greek Village Salad is absolutely heavenly, but greenery – know your place!!!
