Spain’s MasterChef removed a contestant for serving a questionable dish

Saray Carrillo shocked the judges and audience of Spain’s Masterchef when she served a fully feathered dead bird as her dish.

The judges challenged Carrillo and her fellow contestants with a unique “farm-to-table” task, testing their ability to prepare a delicious meal from scratch. To raise the stakes, the contestants began with a freshly hunted bird, complete with feathers, a beak, and internal organs.

One of the most contentious competitors to date, Saray Carrillo was 27 when she appeared on the Spanish edition of the culinary competition in 2020.

The problem arose when the contestant received a game bird straight from the forest, complete with feathers, beak, and all its internal organs.

In less than twenty minutes, Carrillo needed to clean and pluck the bird and transform it into a delicious supper.

Other members of the group were understandably uneasy when faced with the same issue, but they gave it a fair shot.

This was not the case for the 27-year-old from Córdoba, who approached the task with audacity and ultimately ended up hurting himself.

Instead of offering the panel of experts some exquisitely roasted meat, Carrillo marched over to them and proudly displayed the uncooked fowl on a tray, ostentatiously adorned with slivers of spring onion and some cherry tomatoes cut in half.

Top chef Jordi Cruz Mas gave the rebellious contestant a furious diatribe.One judge said in spanish ‘This is never seen in MasterChef.’

She had not only shown a “lack of respect” for him, he informed her, but also for her fellow competitors and the 28,000 applicants who had applied to work in the MasterChef kitchens.

He then instructed her to take off her apron and depart the performance right away.

People’s reaction 

Carrillo maintained her composure despite the criticism, stating that she believed she had a “black mark” against her from the start and had wanted to quit the show nevertheless.

One YouTube user wrote as a joke, ‘How disgusting! God, I really can’t handle cherry tomatoes.’

Another wrote, ‘It’s so raw that it can still fly.’

While one brutally said, ‘It is tragic that aperson like this is a social educator when in reality she is yet to be civilized.’
