MASTERCHEF viewers were left unimpressed this evening as a contestant kept showing off plates she had made herself.
Hope, 31, was accused of trying to flog a pottery business after serving up her dishes on homemade china, which she kept pointing out.
Hope impressed everyone with her cooking - and plate making skillsHope had an impressive range of plates with herThe impressive cook delighted John Torode and Gregg Wallace not only with her tastes, but also how she served it all up.
John asked her at one point: "You have actually made the plates and brought them in?"
Those watching at home weren’t so keen though and took to X to complain.

A second commented: “Also, don’t think they’d let you bring your own plates on #MasterchefAU It’s not the Pottery Throwdown.”
While a third added: “Is this woman trying to flog her pottery or something???”
It is unclear if the chef does in fact have her own pottery business.
Hope was very emotional throughout tonight’s episode and was delighted that Gregg loved her chocolate brownie.
She broke down in tears after he told her: "The nuts in the cream give it almost a toastiness, I like that. I very much like your cracker, it's almost oaty, but sweet, I really really like that."
He added: "Are you okay? Happy tears?"
Speaking on camera, she explained: "To be told I am good at cooking, it's a very very emotional moment, to comprehend."
Hope has landed a place in the quarter finals
