Students have a reputation for living on pasta, baked beans and Pot Noodles. But not Bobby Odu and Keziah Whittaker whose culinary skills have taken them to the final of BBC Three's Young MasterChef tonight (Monday January 23).
The duo, who are studying for degrees at the University of Nottingham, have wowed judges, Michelin-trained internet sensation Poppy O'Toole, and Kerth Gumbs, who was a finalist on Great British Menu 2020. Bobby and Keziah are up against Jordan Pomerance, a 21-year-old vegan entrepreneur from Knebworth.
Mechanical engineering student Bobby, who cooks every day and is a big fan of Southeast Asian cooking, said: "Cooking in the MasterChef kitchen is like a tough workout. It’s really difficult in the midst of it, things may not go to plan and you may feel like throwing in the towel.
