Masterchef Turkey (MasterChef Türkiye)

MasterChef Türkiye (MasterChef Turkey) is the Turkish version of the cooking competition format that originated in Britain. Its first season aired on Show TV in 2011; the format came back after a gap of roughly seven years on September 1, 2018, this time on TV8, where it has stayed since. Amateur cooks compete in two teams, Blue and Red, for the main prize and the title of chef.

The first season was judged by the chefs Murat Bozok, Batuhan Piatti and Erol Kaynar and presented by Öykü Serter. For 2018 the panel was replaced entirely, with Mehmet Yalçınkaya, Hazer Amani and Somer Sivrioğlu taking the seats, and in 2019 the Italian chef Danilo Zanna succeeded Amani. Hakan Kanık was one of the 2018 contestants. The 2021 season was won by the restaurateur and chef Eren Kaşıkçı, known as "Kızıl Sakal" (Red Beard).
