Hi, I've tried in vain to get recipes used before on Masterchef....however....there are copyright issues which prevent most of the recipes from being published.....how annoying is that !! Anyways...luckily for you I'm a chef and have made a similar carribean style dessert before so I've adapted it a bit for you....please let me know if you enjoy it .....
