The Shortest Challenge Ever | MasterChef Australia | S4 Ep11

Name that pasta. Jules, you look terrified. I am terrified. Pasta's not something I eat very often. I do know quite a few of the pastas there, but there are a few that I don't have a clue what they are. TK, what's your feelings? I know about four, so we'll see how we go. Okay. Filippo, Italian background, love making bread. What about pasta? I do like pasta. I eat it every night of the week. But I don't know if I eat every single one of those varieties. It's not happening. Right, let's get into this challenge. I want you to line up front to back. I didn't move, just for the record. And I can't see anybody else, Kevin. It's just you. I can't hear you. All I've written, pasta's called different things. In one region it's got one name, in one region it's got another. What we have for you here is 28 commercially made pastas. And what we're looking for is the Italian name on the packet. Get it right, you keep competing. But the first six to get it wrong go into the second round of elimination. Kevin, you're going to choose a pastor. If you get the name of the pastor right, you go to the back of the queue. If you get the name of the pastor wrong, then you step to the side. And the person behind you then steps forward and names that pastor. Pick your pastor. How do you feel about what you've picked? Are you confident? To be completely honest, I was eyeing this down from back in the line. I don't generally buy this, but generally when I buy it, it's wider sheets. And now I'm back here with this. My mind is absolutely playing games with me right now. So I'm pretty confident, but. Kevin, I hope you realize that if you get this pasta wrong, there's a possibility that no one else knows what it is, and you could knock everyone else out. You've had long enough to think. What's the name of the pasta? This had better be lasagna. Cheating is. Amazingly, that is not correct. Can you please step aside? Mindy, how many pastas on this table do you think you could confidently name? At least ten. Yep. And this isn't one of them. I'm taking a stab. I think it's tagliatelle. If that was tagliatelle, that'd be the biggest, frilliest tagliatelle I've ever seen. So, I'm afraid you're wrong. Please step aside. I honestly can't believe I just did that. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Jules. Yes? Name that pasta. Is it Farfali? No. It is not Farfali. Can you please step aside? I'm so sorry. Guys at the back of the line, all we're looking for is the first six to go through to that next round. Beau, how are you feeling? Feeling really good actually. It's nice being back here. I was being pretty courteous, just coming down the back, and I think it's a bit of karma. Ooh. First three haven't named that pasta. Can I get a raise of hands? Who thinks they know the name of that pasta? Wow, Kylie. Oh, crap. Hope I don't get it wrong if I get a chance to name it. Feeling confident? Hope you are. Right, TK, tell us what that pasta is. Big, fat, ugly fettuccine. Meenie? Well, TK, step to the left. Kylie, step up, have a look at it. Come on, Karls. You think you know what this is. I think, yes. Kylie, tell us what the pasta is. Name that pasta. I'm pretty sure this is frusilli. Kylie, you might want to keep your fingers crossed for the next round, because that is not... What was it? Frusilli. Fusilli. Fusilli. Fruzilli. No. I thought it was. Emma, you've had a huge week. Yesterday, captaining the red team, now it's under the cusp of going through the next round of the elimination. How are you feeling? Yeah, I'm kind of wishing I just stood one place back right now because I don't think anyone here knows what that pastor is. Right, Emma, step up and name that pastor. Yeah, the only thing I could think of would be to call it Ribbon Pasta, but I know that's not right. Emma, I'm just reminding you that what we asked for was the Italian name that you'd see on the packet. Ribbanella, I don't know. That sounds great. Ribbanella. It's a better name, the one it's got. I don't. Emma, I hate to tell you, it is not Ribbanella. It is not Ribbon Pasta. Step to the side. Emma, you're in the next round of elimination. Who wants to find out what that pasta's called? Lasagnotte. Oh my goodness. Kevin, I'm going to get lasagnotte and smack you over the head. I reckon you probably picked one of the three hardest pastas to name on that lineup. Can I tell you right now? I didn't know what that pasta was and I have no idea why you picked it. Honestly, I was eyeing that pasta down from back there thinking it was the absolute easiest thing. Every single lasagna sheet I have ever purchased looked like that only, full width. It's a shame that none of you had the opportunity to pick some of the easier pastas here on the bench. Fusilli, fettuccine, penne, rizzoni, macaroni, spaghetti. Ravioli, I mean, there's some basic ones there, but there's also ones there that are a lot more difficult that, again, I would have struggled with that. I would have called them little eels, all right? But they're not. They're called... Ruote.
