MasterChef 2024 star’s major success after “life-changing” challenge win

Get it while it's hot!

MasterChef Australia star Sumeet Saigal‘s success has only continued after winning a “life-changing opportunity” during the 2024 season.

During the June 7 episode of the hit cooking competition, the remaining home cooks were tasked with creating a “fusion sauce” for guest judge Curtis Stone.

While the winning sauce would land the lucky contender a spot in the top 10, they’d also win a once-in-a-lifetime deal to have their creation sold in Coles stores nationwide.

It was Sumeet who out-sauced her co-stars with her InTALIAN Simmer Sauce — a unique blend of Indian and Italian flavours.

MasterChef judges dubbed the sauce “brilliant” and “comforting”, and it seems fans feel the same way!

Yep, per Yahoo! Lifestyle, Sumeet’s InTALIAN sauce has been flying off the shelves.

“Our customers are loving Sumeet’s sauce and it’s currently our most popular simmer sauce,” a Coles spokesperson told the outlet.

MasterChef‘s Sumeet Saigal’s “ultimate food dream” comes true

Ahead of appearing on MasterChef Australia 2024, Sumeet expressed in her 10play bio that her “ultimate food dream” was to create sauces that simplified Indian food.

She’s since earned the title of “Sauce Boss”, and told Chattr after her challenge win that her victory “aligns so well with [her] food dream”.

“Now, thanks to MasterChef, I can finally bring these ideas to life.”
