It is day eleven of MasterChef: The Professionals 2014 and the second set of five chefs in week 4 enter the MasterChef: The Professionals kitchen to showcase their cooking skills.

However, at the end of their first task, one candidate will take no further part in the competition after Judges Marcus Wareing, Monica Galetti and food critic Gregg Wallace deliver their verdict in the Signature Dish Test.

The five chefs are:

Daniel 33, from London
Sam 26, from Taunton
Ben 29, from Stoke-on-Trent
Richard 32, from London
Danny 24, from Newcastle.

Daniel, Sam, Ben, Richard and Danny begin their bid for the coveted MasterChef: The Professionals title with a total of three daunting tests to prove themselves to the judges.

The Signature Dish Test is the first challenge they must face in the Masterchef kitchen. The five chefs have one hour to cook one plate of food that showcases just what they can do, before one must leave.

The four remaining chefs must then take on Monica’s Skills Test (make canapes), followed by Marcus Wareing’s Invention Test ( prepare a Cornish crab dish) before one or more is sent home.
