A MasterChef España contestant shocked viewers and judges alike by presenting one of the most bizarre dishes in the show’s history—and was instantly kicked off.
Back in 2020, Saray Carrillo, 27, was asked to cook a partridge. However, instead of preparing it, she served the bird completely raw and unplucked, simply garnished with spring onions, sauce, and cherry tomatoes. Her defiant attitude and smirk only added to the judges’ outrage.

“This is never seen in MasterChef,” one stunned judge said. Saray, feeling mocked by the challenge, left her apron on the bench and walked out without apology.
The moment went viral, racking up nearly 8 million views on YouTube. Social media lit up with reactions. One user joked, “It’s so raw it can still fly!” Another added, “I really can’t handle cherry tomatoes.”
While reality cooking shows are tough, Saray’s dish was a line too far—even for MasterChef.
