The Corrs - fed and watered
By Hayley Carlin - 22nd March 2005
Today UK fans of food were treated to a semi-final episode of
"Masterchef Goes Large". A series in which 100 budding chefs are given different cooking challenges in order for one of the 100 to become UK Masterchef of the year.
One of the challenges today was to cook for celebrities. The four remaining contestants were told they had to cook for some people who have eaten in the greatest restaurants all over the world. Of course, the show was filmed back in November, and the celebrities in question were The Corrs. It was only when the chefs were driven towards Wembley Arena, they found out that their meals were to be eaten by "one of the best Irish rock bands in the world". And the meal was to be the bands pre-concert dinner.
The band had a choice of two main courses and four desserts. When Andrea's Cod with Mustard sauce, was placed in front of her, she asked "Why is there custard on my cod?" But once tasted, she declared it good. Once dessert was served, both Sharon and Andrea weren't keen on the Cranberry and Champagne jelly. Andrea's comment was, "It didn't rock my world." All of the band and crew decided that the fruit with
custard dessert was the favourite. The dessert was actually supposed to be a Caribbean trifle, but the jelly unfortunately didn't set in time, so it was just the custard with tropical fruit.
All in all, the band seemed to enjoy their dinner, and congratulated the chefs. We also got to see a clip of the concert and some backstage footage. The lucky chefs got to watch the concert from backstage. You can download the episode from our download partner for a limited time.
