MasterChef fans were left fuming during Monday night’s episode, after the popular cooking contest chose a Scottish-born chef to lead a challenge where native Australian ingredients were the focus.
WATCH Scottish chef Jock Zonfrillo lead MasterChef Indigenous good challenge:
Restauranteur Jock Zonfrillo – who is the owner of Adelaide restaurant Orana and the creator of The Orana Foundation – was introduced to the contestants by judge Matt Preston.
The Orana Foundation aims to ‘preserve the food heritage of Indigenous peoples and integrate native food into Australian gastronomy’.
However, many viewers expressed fury over the fact that an Indigenous chef wasn’t chosen to lead the task.
