The online fundraising cooking marathon on June 19 will also feature appearances from chefs Heston Blumental, Ranveer Brar, and a few fan-favourite ‘MasterChef Australia’ alumni — as well as actor Vidya Balan
It is no secret that former MasterChef Australia judges Matt Preston, Gary Mehigan and George Calombaris have a deep fondness for India. They have not only travelled across the country, exploring its cuisines, but have also mentored many chefs from here. So it is only natural they were concerned for the current Coronavirus situation in India. On April 27, Mehigan posted a throwback photo of himself digging into a plate of choley bhature on his official Instagram, captioned, “I have so many good friends in India and right now things seem impossibly bad. I am thinking of you and hoping you and your loved ones are okay. Stay safe and I can only hope that the freedoms and simple pleasures that we may have all taken for granted return soon.”More Related News
