In this show, the remaining five chefs from Monday's heat return to face Monica and Gregg in a skills test. Monica asks them to make a swiss meringue to pipe on to a lemon tart, before glazing and serving it with a sauce. With only 15 minutes to deliver, it is seriously tough for the chefs, many of whom have little experience of the pastry section. They have to hold their nerve if they are to serve up a sumptuously piped dessert . At the end Monica and Gregg must decide who will be leaving the competition. Only the best four chefs go forward to cook for legendary Michel Roux Jr. The pressure now mounts as the four remaining chefs face two challenges for Michelin-starred legend Michel Roux Jr. For their first test, Michel cooks a classic recipe of pigeon roti aux petits pois a la francaise, i.e . roasted pigeon with stewed peas a la francaise, before asking the chefs to recreate it in 60 minutes. Nerves are palpable as the chefs battle to produce an elegant and perfectly executed plate. Finally, the contestants are given just one hour to prepare their own classic dish . With only three places up for grabs, there is a lot at stake to pull out all the stops. Only the best three remaining chefs go through to the quarter-final, moving a step closer to winning the title of Professional MasterChef.
