It's been the most anticipated episode of MasterChef Season 10 - Prince Charles is set to appear on tonight's episode of the Channel Ten cooking show.

A preview for tonight's episode shows His Royal Highness taking part in a taste testing.

The royal met the judges - Matt Preston, Gary Meghan and George Calombaris - and tasted hors d'oeuvre prepared by the remaining contestants.

One dish consisted of a canapé topped with edible green ants, and Prince Charles asked, 'So, I wonder, what are all these?'

'Green ants on barramundi,' Matt offered to the royal who quickly exclaimed: 'Green ants?!'

George joked: 'Our version of fish and chips.'

Also making an appearance on the popular cooking show was Camilla Parker-Bowles.

Camilla can be seen providing insight into what Charles might like in a dish, claiming 'something fresh.'

'You'll definitely see a smile,' she adds.
