Each episode follows the same script, and it's divided in three challenges. At the end of every episode, one contestant is evicted.

    • Mystery Box Challenge. The contestants receive ingredients with which they have to make a dish according to the specifications of the judges. The contestants have a certain amount of time in order to do this.
    • Creative Test. It's a free dish, but the judges dictate some rules or twists the contestants must follow.
    • Pressure Test. A celebrity chef visits the set and instructs the contestants on how to make his most famous dish. The contestants have to then recreate it. Sometimes the judges make the dishes contestants have to recreate.
  • Team Challenge. Is the second challenge each episode. This challenge takes place outside of the kitchens of Masterchef and usually involves cooking for groups of people. The captains have to choose between the dishes that they are going to prepare and which of the other contestants will be on their team. The losing team then faces off in the elimination round.
  • Elimination Test. The winning team observes the losing team from the gallery from in the final challenge. The losing team has to cook the recipe chosen by the judges.
