VIEWERS witnessed a true David and Goliath moment on MasterChef last night, with one of the show's youngest contestants, Laura Cassai, facing off against an acclaimed chef.
And she triumphed.
The 19-year-old from Adelaide took on The Atlantic's Michelin Star trained Donovan Cooke at his own game of cooking seafood after beating Tracy and Ben in Marco Pierre White's onion chopping challenge.

An unlikely turn of events, which saw Cooke run out of time to plate up his barramundi and broth, meant that the university student beat the pro and was awarded the immunity pin.
Donovan, who was Marco's right-hand man in the kitchen for four years, was clearly striving for perfection, but perhaps relaxed a little too much when cooking off against the amateur.
"It was such a shock that he ran out of time, he maybe did overlook me a little bit," Cassai tells news.com.au.
"For a 19-year-old to come along and give him a run for his money, he didn't see it coming."

Cassai is not only the first contestant to win the pin this series, she's also the youngest person in MasterChef Australia history to pull this off.
The youngster, who finished high school in 2012, says her age has definitely meant she has been overlooked by fellow, more experienced contestants.
"I think in the first few weeks everyone just thought she's maybe here to fill numbers, but that's definitely what I wanted to do [surprise contestants] and I think I have done that," she said.
"I'm all about proving people wrong, age is just a number."
Cassai is quickly proving to be one of the dark horses of this season's cooking show. Could a teenager take out the MasterChef title?
