Episodes
Episode 1
Original airdate: Sunday, 2 February 2020
The All-Stars season opens with a warm welcoming of 20 contestants from previous MasterChef seasons, including 4 from season 1, 8 from season 2, and 8 more from season 3. Starting off, the judges have prepared "presents" to welcome back all returning contestants to the competition. Chef Ian takes out 20 black envelopes for contestants to each draw one randomly, containing a greeting card of different colors. Shortly after, 10 black boxes appeared with different color ribbons that corresponds to each of the greeting card. Each color has 2 owners, and they will be pairing up to battle one-on-one with the ingredient inside their boxes as the main challenge.
One-on-One Challenge: After each contestants are paired up, they began opening their boxes to see the main ingredient inside, for which all 10 boxes each have different challenges from previous seasons. In this round, the judges won't be judging the contestants; instead, they brought four special guests to be the judges for the week. They are Chef Pruek Samphanthawat (Iron Chef Thailand), Chef Somsak Rarongkham, Chef Booncheid Sonsuwan, and Chef Kaew Paweenuch (winner of season 1).
- Special guests: Chefs Pruek Samphanthawat, Somsak Rarongkham, Booncheid Sonsuwan, and Kaew Paweenuch
Each contestant will be judged by "blind tasting", where the four special guests will be judging without knowing who did which dish for every pair. They have 60 minutes to create a dish to the best of their ability in hopes of winning their partner's dish. The winner of each pair will be receiving the golden apron, guaranteeing their spot as the main contestant for this season. If they lose, they are eliminated immediately.
- Time: 60 minutes (1 hour)
After cooking time is over, they are sent to the lobby and wait until their pair is called. As each pair enters the kitchen to hear the results, the final selections are as follows:
| Pair No. | Main ingredient | Partner 1 | Partner 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lobster | Golf | Chanon |
| 2 | Fermented fish | Quest | Pond |
| 3 | Instant noodles | Deaw | Lisa |
| 4 | Mixed berries | Lat | Paope |
| 5 | Frog | Ploy | Tum |
| 6 | Rib-eye A5 wagyu beef | Kapom | Jumlong |
| 7 | Durian | Belle | Bank |
| 8 | Chicken (full, with fur) | Gino | Toei |
| 9 | Cow testicles | Ball | Nick |
| 10 | Pig head | Jah | Lukkate |
- = winning contestants
Ten contestants who didn't win later returns with the 10 winners after the round ended, with a heartfelt message from Chef Pom that triggers their emotions. Knowing they must step up their game after losing today, the judges revealed that no one will actually be eliminated this week; they are instead separated into two teams: winners vs. losers. All contestants will be competing in a brutal team challenge next week where one will be eliminated.
Episode 2
Original airdate: Sunday, 9 February 2020
Team Challenge 1: For their first team challenge of the season, they will be cooking premium, fine-dining dishes by "menu ordering", where the guests will be the ones deciding what dishes they are craving and the contestants must have the ability to cook them. This week's teams were distributed in the last episode, and each team gets to choose their own team captain. The winners (blue team) choose Jah as their team captain, while the other team (red team) choose Lisa.
| Team captain | Members |
|---|---|
| Jah | Jumlong, Ploy, Nick, Deaw, Belle, Quest, Paope, Chanon and Gino |
| Lisa | Lat, Bank, Tum, Kapom, Golf, Toei, Pond, Ball and Lukkate |
The special guests who are the judges for this team challenge are 38 MasterChef Junior contestants, as an honor for recently winning the 24th Asian Television Awards. They will altogether choose six signature dishes they would like to have, including three appetizers and three main courses. Each team will be getting different amount of each signature dish depending on what dishes each Junior contestant wanted. The finalized list of orders are as follows:
| Category | Signature Dishes | Team's # | Team's # |
|---|---|---|---|
| Appetizers | Chạo tôm (Fried Shrimp with Sugar Cane) | 4 dishes | |
| Foie Gras Tortellini with Truffle Cream Sauce | 8 | 10 | |
| Crab Croquette with Japanese Curry Sauce | 7 | 5 | |
| Main Courses | Fettuccine with Lamb Massaman Curry | 4 dishes | |
| Lobster Risotto with Marinara Sauce | 5 | 8 | |
| Beef Wellington | 10 | 7 | |
Hence, each team will have a different starting time. For appetizer (and main course prep if they choose to), the contestants will have 30 minutes. However, as the winners from last week, Blue team will receive 10 extra minutes. After that, both teams will have another 1 hour to finish their main course orders. During the round however, Blue team faced consequences in their appetizer dishes that were returned from the Junior contestants (i.e. raw pasta, dirty plates). These mistakes cost them two 5-minute penalties, losing 10 minutes of cooking time in total.
- Time (Appetizer): 30 minutes (40 for blue team)
- Time (Main Course): 60 minutes (1 hour)
As a result, the Junior contestants have voted for Red team to win, whereas Blue team will be facing a Pressure Test round.
- Winning team: Red team
Pressure Test 1: In this round, Blue team contestants will be making a Royal Thai version of Vietnamese stuffed crispy omelet, the same pressure test as given in season 2. What Chef Pom (the recipe owner) and the other judges want are as follows:
1. The batter needs to be crispy and in its original shape when served.
2. The minced shrimp and pork must also show colors and fragrance, and its flavor must be rich and tasty like original.
3. The bean sprouts and shredded coconut must still have its nice fragrance.
4. The cucumber salad needs to be sweet, salty and sour like the original.
Since this is All-Stars season and all contestants have faced with challenges for at least a year, the judges shrunk their cooking time down 10 minutes -- from initially 45 in season 2 to 35 minutes.
- Time: 35 minutes
Shortly before time runs up, the judges faced controversies with Nick, who is competing in this pressure test. In the end, Nick decides to walk out of the kitchen himself due to his own reasons, withdrawing from the competition.
- Bottom entries: none
- Withdrew from the competition: Nick

By testing their time management, they will have 1 hour as usual to finish their dish despite only having one pan to cook.

As a result, Ploy presented the best dish and granted herself immunity for the week.
