Masterchef Australia made its triumphant return to screens on Monday night.

During the season 16 premiere, twenty-two contestants were introduced and tasked with preparing their first dish of the season.

One contestant, Nat Thaipun, stole the show by putting together a 'kangaroo larb with soy cured egg yolk and toasted rice wafer'.

'This is as good, if not better than any dish I've had in a restaurant in Australia in the last six months,' judge Sofia Levin told Nat.

The dish won her the coveted immunity pin and a chance to work with celebrity chef Jamie Oliver in London.

Fans flooded social media with compliments for the contestant.

'Huge congratulations to Nat for that well-deserved immunity win. What a creative, beautiful, delicious looking dish. A fabulous fusion of her Thai and Australian heritage. I'm excited to see more of her,' one fan wrote.

'Woohoo well done Nat!!!... I would pay good money to eat Nat's dish!'

However, some fans were quick to point out an issue - the meal was not cooked.
