Last year, Sydney couple Janelle and Monzir won the 2022 season of My Kitchen Rules, taking out the crown with a score of 27/30 in a fiercely fought battle with only two points separating them from Kate and Mary.

Heading into the competition, Janelle and Monzir were underdogs, but they wowed Manu Feildel, Curtis Stone, and Colin Fassnidge with their four-course menu served to contestants, family, and friends at Kitchen HQ.

Janelle said of the win: “We won, we actually won! It doesn’t matter where you came from, you can achieve anything you want. There is no limit. This means everything to us.”

Monzir gave a shout-out to his mum, who was watching from the audience: “Thank you, mum, for teaching me everything and thank you for your support.”

The judges were impressed with the team’s authentic menu which paid homage to their heritage. Colin described it as “ballsy and delicious”, while Curtis said it was “full of heart and soul”.
