MasterChef fans were left in stitches after spotting a glaring editing error during the latest episode of the popular BBC cooking competition.
Viewers quickly took to social media to point out the hilarious continuity mistake, which saw a contestant's dish miraculously transform between shots.
The blunder occurred during the tense final moments of the episode, as judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace sampled the competitors' creations.
"One minute the plate was half-empty, the next it was completely full again!" tweeted one amused viewer.
The editing slip-up has sparked a wave of memes and jokes online, with fans joking that the show's producers must have been working on "MasterChef magic" rather than culinary skills.
This isn't the first time MasterChef has faced scrutiny over its editing – previous series have featured similar continuity errors that eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot.
The BBC has yet to comment on the latest gaffe, but it's certainly given viewers something extra to chew on between challenges.
