CELEBRITY MasterChef star Eshaan Akbar has been accused of nearly killing Gregg Wallace twice after serving raw chicken on two occasions.
But despite his huge faux pas he still landed a place in the next round and Chloe Burrows was sent packing instead.
The comedian was horrified when he first failed to cook chicken liver properly – and in the same day served up another very undercooked meal.
Trying the second dish, Gregg remarked: “We are a little bit pink in here, which is such a shame because your flavours are magnificent.”
Eshaan moaned afterwards: “I can’t believe I gave Gregg Wallace undercooked chicken twice in one day, that is going to haunt me forever.”
Those watching at home were very amused by it, particularly because it still wasn’t enough for him to be sent home over Chloe.
One person commented: “Eshaan almost killed Gregg twice His reward, a place in the next round. Beautiful scenes.”
A second remarked: “That’s twice now Eshaan has almost poisoned Gregg. Put him through to the next round ASAP.”
And a third added: #CelebrityMasterChef Ishan gets two dishes underdone… Twice unlucky! With Chloe in competition he ain’t going home!”
Despite his errors though, the judges – Gregg and John Torode – were impressed with his flavour combinations.
Chloe however struggled with her food and after mistaking her duck for fish, she undercooked her brownie.
Gregg described it as more like a raw “chocolate jam”.
After learning her fate, Chloe admitted: “If any of the others went, it wouldn’t have been great.”
EastEnders actress Danielle Harold, BBC Gladiator and Team GB Sprinter Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, and Line Of Duty star Rochenda Sandall will be joining Eshaan in the next round.
