So it was that stage in the competition where MasterChef contestants were told to up their game and serve exquisite plates of food to a bunch of super-talented chefs with extremely refined palettes.

And sitting on the dining table judging their food were five familiar faces – Marcus Wareing, Sat Baines, Ashley Palmer-Watts, Clare Smyth and Nuno Mendes. No pressure.
Naturally, viewers were inspired by this ultimate fine dining experience and keen to share their own versions of posh plates of food…
