- Hello!!!! I can’t apologize enough for taking such a long hiatus, but I am so excited to finally share this video with you. Also can we just talk about the fact that I’m now at 20k subs?! You guys are the best. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
I kept running into issues while filming the Q&A (hence why the lighting is messed up / I didn’t get to answer all of your questions) and it was supposed to be a mukbang yet I didn’t actually eat while answering questions lololol but I PROMISE to do a part 2!!
My goal for 2022 is to focus on YT a lot more seriously and I can't wait to share all the videos I have planned. I love you all :)

Oh wow seeing Ahran and Leslie still being good friends to this day definitely put a smile on my face.
same
They two were perfect Masterchefs together and they had a great connection. I think the most memorable cooks!
RIGHTTT
Not surprising considering they're easily 2 of the greatest from their season.
And Leslie's reception of an initial bad rep from his fellow contestants..
Te
I still can’t believe Joe had the gall to tell Ahran “why would we play favorites” when they’d were clearly playing favorites with Courtney lmfao. Ahran called them out on their smelly bullshit and he knew it. Courtney should’ve gone home during that donut challenge.
Right especially because they sent Leslie home because of it
It was such BS, and then the rumors of Joe and Courtney sleeping with each other was rampant which is why he was gone the next season
Courtney got that dubbbbb ahahaha y'all mad
Kira deserved to lose, Courtney after precedents performances no.
@@iwcb8539 She won but she’s the most hated. Lol
Honestly the Leslie-Ahran character arc was my favourite part of that season, I’m glad they’re still friends.
Ahran calling out Joe was just *chefs kiss* - girl did what we all wanted to from home for every season of that show.
I think you mean Eyerahn
@@aaronnorman9755 no i think they meant "IRAN"
Y'all would comment any shit at this point@@aaronnorman9755
Ngl, I didn't even finish season 5 yet but you and Leslie were my favorite duo, it was so sad seeing you go as I thought you should have definitely been in the top 5. Either way, doesn't really matter anymore. It's just that you inspired me to start cooking, I myself am 18 years old now and never even touched a frying pan before in my life but now thanks to you am becoming more and more interested in the kitchen. So I am definitely looking forward to your upcoming videos!
If you never cook before the best time to start is NOW.
Cooking is fun (except the cleaning up afterwards or if you work in professional kitchen) , it can be challenging but very satisfying when you achieve your final result (or the result that you like) and even better when you serve the food to someone and they genuinely like it.
I think people forget how young you were in that show! I thought I was going to be a doctor when I was 18- and now I’m working at a school. We all change. I’m excited to see that you’re posting ❤️
Season 5 was my favorite season because of you and Leslie. You got some amazing skills!
Omg yessss!!!
best season period
You guys are fools to not realize that the whole thing between her and leslie were all scripted.
@@danniton9831 “don’t say that, it was real to me” 😢😢
@@danniton9831 the fighting or the friendship?
Thanks for putting up with us and Hasan that one night. It is great to see you doing well now!!
Twitch language is a foreign language LOL I felt so bad
“Did you ask if I’m Mormon” 💀😭
@@AhranCooks haha
Hasan is a bum
I watched her from XQC, cant stand Hassan and his grifting and fake face
It seems like you’ve matured a lot. I’m glad to see that. Your cooking looks amazing.
Awww thank you so much!! 🥹
@@AhranCooksyou’re welcome Eyerahn
Leslie and Ahran are by far the best friendship between contestants I have ever seen on MC, and I watched 8 seasons of it ;)
if im being honest here, you inspired me to cook/bake become a chef. you are incredibly talented. i love you so much Ahran. Good to see you back
Wow, it's great to see you again after so long Ahran! I saw this video by chance and I'm really glad I did. I hope you're happy and doing well. I am so sorry to hear that you were hurt after MasterChef, I would have never thought that the show (being highly regarded and full of dreams ) would leave even somewhat of a negative impact.
Personally I'm so happy you and Leslie are actually good friends, you two were my favorites that season and always brightened my day.
I’m so sorry u had to deal with all that at 18:( 2014 was a weird time on the internet but I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better n the video was great I actually felt like we were having a conversation, hope this channel continues to grow!🌱
you and Leslie were my favourites of that season. I was just 18 as well when it was airing so I found it really inspirational as well. I remember being a little sad to see you go in it too. It makes me happy to hear that you still enjoy cooking even if it's just as a side project/for fun. :) Super excited to have found your youtube account and I cant wait to see the content you'll post in the future.
I’m so glad you’re still friends with leslie ! Most people did him so wrong at some point I almost cried for him. Thank you for this video Ahran ❤
Ahran, I genuinely sobbed when you and Leslie had to say goodbye during that double elimination pressure test. I felt like that was the one test I wish that there was not a double elimination situation.
But I heard you and Leslie still keep in touch and that touches my heart. Keep cooking, girl! You're soaring places! :D
I am glad that You and Leslie are still friends especially after what happened the day on the beach, it brought me a tear to me when I noticed you were eliminated and Leslie tearing up made me tear up more and you saying Leslie would win made me tear up more, You and Leslie are my favorites from S5
Editing is great and so is the food, this channel really has potential to be big if you keep it up.
you have no idea how excited I am for this!!!!!!!! answering all the juicy questions we all have hehehe go ahran! 💖
You actually made me learn about Asian cooking and recipes. I used to get just takeout, because I was a Puerto Rican teenager who only ever had takeout chinese. I watched your season of Master Chef and all of your recipes looked so good. I started researching how to cook more advanced dishes, researching food traditions, before I knew it I was studying the culture and history as well and really enjoying it. I also learned to really appreciate things like hot pot dishes and korean barbeque, which back when I first watched your season (I was 18 myself!) was stuff no one in my family would even be OPEN TO.
Now, my family LOVES when I experiment and try out new dishes from different cultures. One of my favorites is Japanese style curry.
Watching some of your challenge dishes, also made me realize there was ways to elevate things that seemed "Simple" but in nature were kinda complicated. I know you said, you thought you got by on your age mostly but genuinely... You did inspire me. You and Christine Ha were my favorite contestants in your respective seasons and I learned a lot about just being unafraid to try new recipes and honestly make up new recipes *inspired* by other dishes too.
You seem so down to earth! I was smiling throughout the whole video watching you answer these questions. I know this one comment won't mean a lot to you, but you are amazing for sharing your experiences from Masterchef. :) Much love from Canada!
This is so sweet! This comment means a lot 🫶🏻
@@AhranCooks ❤️❤️❤️
i just got into master chef and wow it’s really cool to see this so recent. Inspires me to cook as a college student at a much higher level. 🙌🏼
Thank you for being on youtube! You were my favorite on masterchef! Excited for the content you will bring and you look so gorgeous!
So, the first time I watched the season with you in it, I really rooted for you. I thought your reserved nature and cute face was what really made me pay more attention to you, and then your relationship with Leslie made me root for you and him. When you were eliminated, I cried my eyes out lmao, and I just wanna say that I appreciate your hard working efforts, Goodluck in life Ahran!
Wow....amazing to see you again, and you're right, I'm sure most people wouldnt recognize you at all from your days on masterchef. You seem all grown up, and a lot wiser for the experience anyway. I remember you making me laugh a few times while my friend and I watched that series. You were a good contestant. A memorable one too. Keep the chin up and keep on with the cooking. Looking forward to more recipes. All the best to you in the future.
You're one of the best contestants from that season, I'm glad to see your RUclips channel popping up in my feed every now and then. Love to see more from the channel soon!
AAAAAHHH so happy you’re back!!!! I honestly think you shouldn’t care what people think of you or hate about you or anything like that, i believe you are an amazing cook just the way you are, and you shouldn’t change anything about that! Btw, I’m the dude who you liked the rubber ducks profile picture lol, nice to see you back!
Just saw you while rewatching old master chef seasons and so glad I caught you right as you came back to RUclips! Hope to see you continue :)
omg you were my favorite back then! also when you teamed up with Leslie and made up with him, that was my favorite moment. it was just so wholesome. i'm so glad you're doing ok now and i hope you'll find whatever career you'd like to have in the future!
I was such a little shit at 18, but looking back, we change so much.
At that age I was set on going to Berkeley for Pre Med, but ended up going to Cal Poly Humboldt and now a Forester lol. Funny how that works out.
Glad you’re back and glad you’re opening up to all us.
OMG i cant believe you got into my feed! it's so nice to see you again! i've been binge watching masterchef, maybe that's the reason why you appeared. you and leslie were my favorite duo! i remember crying when you and leslie hugged and you leaving after. 😭 it's so nice to know that you are still friends with him!
i first watched season 5 when it came out and i was around 12 years old.. now i’m 19 and i can’t imagine being on masterchef at age 18 😭 i can only imagine how it was being around grown adults and cameras all the time..
Honestly i loved your series, it had some really great contestants as well, Especially you, Leslie and Jaymee. I'm glad you and Leslie are still friends, your arc was definitely great to see.
It really makes me happy to see you and Leslie are still friends :) even if it was heavily dramatized by the editing, I just loved watching you two going from snipping at each other about everything to being real friends with each other. And when you came out to cook for Leslie, omg, it was amazing. It was just a wonderful story of two people learning to actually understand each other.
Please keep posting regularly! Really enjoy your videos :)
Also that ddukbokki looks bomb ..
Cooking ASMR is the best! You're awesome. please keep posting if it makes you happy
That dish looked delicious 😋 Very interesting Q&A! Glad to hear you plan on doing this channel for a while, looking forward to more vids!
it's great to see that now you're doing good,i just finished watching season 5 and while it is a bummer that courtney won,it was even more of a bummer seeing you go so early,just when you got to get along with leslie.
Still an absolute legend for seeing right thru Courtney and calling her out
I found this video after a bit of a memory trip through old Masterchef videos and some Leslie memes, like many other people here, ngl haha. It's nice to see you and Leslie actually became friends after the show ended! I also once partipated in a big contest in my country and the pressure from people's attention was crazy since the things they see on TV don't always portray how we really are, like you said. It's great seeing you move on with life and not let a competition experience far in the past affect you too much, I feel relatable watching your videos. You seem like a very sweet girl, don't let the mean comments of some immature people and trolls here get to you, good luck on whatever you pursue in life!
Love this q&a format!!!! Can’t wait for more videos 😍🥳
You got me inspired to cook things, and I might get money soon so I'll buy actually good ingredients that can be expensive where I live thank u so much for the inspiration and awesome content
epic chef moment :)
For getting a larger RUclips following, I think Collin & Samir videos are interesting to watch/listen to. They do a lot of in-depth videos about what makes people successful on RUclips! Good luck Ahran
Recently watched Season 5, tbh the reason why I watched the show was due to random Leslie clips which popped up on my feed. You were really one of my top picks of the season and had the potential to even win the competition. Your arc with Leslie was one of the best thing of the season. Great to see that you are doing well. :)
Edit: I hate celery too
Honestly you were one of my favorites and I’m glad you are at least still posting cooking videos :) glad to see you are doing and looking well!
So sweet, thank you!! 🫶🏻
You should def make cooking videos. You have the appeal and I love your chemistry with Leslie on the show, it's something special and a lesson to us all.
Ahhh thank you so much :)
THAT LOOKS DELICIOUS!! & thank you for opening up about yourself 💓
Excited to see more videos! You are awesome, Ahran!
I’m glad your back! I love you’re cooking!
you were definitely one of my favourites Ahran, you have an amazing talent!
You were in the best season. I just loved all the contestants, it was such a vibe. I loved you and Leslie the best
So glad you and Leslie still seem to be in touch, looking back Leslie didn't seem to be such a bad guy❤
Thank you for putting out this video!! When I first watched your season I was also a 17 year old Bay Area Asian, so seeing you on the show was super inspirational!! Definitely felt represented and was super bummed seeing you get eliminated 😔 but I'm so happy you're doing well!!
Wow, I just came across this video randomly in my recommended and I totally remember you and Leslie from that season haha. I still remember that dessert lasagna you made I always wondered what the hell it tasted like. It was nice to see this video though it feels like so long ago I watched that season of Masterchef, as a fellow Korean American I always thought that it was pretty cool to see representation on the show. And yes, I will admit there were times where I thought you were immature on the show, but who honestly is mature as a senior still in high school? Haha you should definitely not take it too hard on yourself and just be proud of the achievement of even being on that show at that age.
Great editing and even greater looking food! Cheers to your channel growing, I hope you find the success you're looking for with content creation ❤❤
oh leslie’s hair is looking gooooood as always 😂😂😂😂 also youtube just randomly recommended ur channel to me and honestly i’m so grateful 😂😂❤
Good on you calling out the judges on their favoritism of Courtney. It was apparent to me through the whole season.
I remember the season you were on you were one of my favorite competitors! I used to watch the show all the time as a kid (I miss 2014, it certainly was a different time... :( ) and now I can see all your cool food on instagram and here at least. Glad you are well.
She is my favorite contestant on that season... Nice to see u back! You are really matured and grown a lot. Good luck on your next career!
ahhh so happy to see you ahran!! this was an amazing video!!
Anyone else think her double elimination with Victoria was unfair? Honestly I don’t think Ahran should’ve went home yet. The double elimination was bs imo but since you don’t wanna come back, there’s still fantasy seasons (I think) and I’m definitely casting you for a fantasy season of all stars (probably winning or runner up). Plus even though it was only an edit it still was iconic with the fight between you and Leslie and then making up into an iconic duo! Imagine if you both never made up and constantly fought, but then again, it was heartwarming seeing you both make up and be okay with each other. That basically made your season my fave season ever and I constantly rewatch it.
Absolutely robbed my favorite underdog ROBBED robbed i tel you oh ze travesty also Ashley if I may inquire you watch Hell’s Kitchen correct also I’m jay but friends call me Wolfe hi 👋
Btw love your screen name Ashley sassypants now that’s a winner name rite there 😃😃😃😃😃😎😎😎🤩🤩✊ respect 🫡
Yeah it felt like a scam. There were elimination rounds where multiple people put up terrible dishes and one one was eliminated but they waited until there were only 3 people doing a pressure test to kick two out. And some bad cooks like Cutter in the balcony gets a pass. Smelt a bit fishy
been waiting for this!! can't wait to watch :)
omg ur so sweet
Awww 🥹 love u too
Rooted for your in MC. Rooting for you now! Ty for sharing ur cooking!
So nice to see people who where contestants still doing well! You and Leslie are awesome!~
Still very nice to see you doing great! I hope too hope for things to go out as you want for the future
I remember you came to my Work Experience class at Gunn High and hearing your MasterChef stories were so funny haha!
I am glad you are doing well.
i remembered when i was in fourth grade, it was the time of masterchef s5 and i was stanning u since the beginning of the show. RUclips recommending this video to me has brought me all the memories when i was a young girl cheering for a young lady
I can never get enough of spicy food. My dad always stares in disbelief whenever I'm cooking and [continues to add pepper flakes] hahaha. Hope your year goes well! + it was lovely seeing you on Hasan's stream.
The spicier the better!!
@@AhranCooks are you still in contact with the old master chef contestants like Leslie
hi! Thank you for the qna, i really enjoyed. I was wondering if you could provide some sort of audio for the questions and the cooking segment? I really enjoy this kind of video while I’m cooking or studying and I might not be able to watch in a super present way ㅠㅠ
I'm a pastry chef, but I'm mostly self taught. I did go to school because they had a culinary course, and I wasn't ready to leave my home. I'm really glad that I went thought, because it showed my the reality of working in a restaurant kitchen and that atmosphere isn't for me. My teachers were all very nice and informative, but I decided to drop out for a number of different reasons. I learned from chefs, cooking classes, watching celebrity chefs on tv, my family, and majority of cooking/baking skills come from teaching myself! I also have a disability, so I became my own boss and I have a quite the following! I'm not comparing myself to chefs who actually went to school and spent a good portion of their lives in kitchens. As long as you have that love and passion for cooking/baking, you can become an awesome chef! And that's what I did!
absolute queen, looking forward to more videos :)
I'm so glad the algorithm recommended this channel, I think you have a bright future of subscriber growth ahead
Awwww thank you!
I am an old man - long since retired - and I remember watching your series and being very upset when you were eliminated. I don't usually react to such tv programs. I'm really delighted that you are doing something you enjoy, albeit not cooking as a career. And you have turned into a beautiful young woman (not that you were an ugly duckling before!).
This video made my day.
She had the unlucky task of going against the GOAT
@@hullball81 I hope you’re not talking about Courtney 😂 fun joke
@@lunarialoonatic I was talking about Leslie but aight
Cool to see you have a YT channel, wishing you all the best!
I know it's a little late (a few years) but I've been rooting for you in MC5. Top 9 for a 18 years old! All the best in your endeavor Ahran!
We love you Ahran!!!! 🥰
love the content love the editing!!! so many cute little details :’))) 언니 화이팅~~
I dont know anything about all this or anything for that matter, but what I do know is that Im happy you and Leslie still get along + your glowup has been insane.
I havnt seen or heard anything about you since I watched your season of Masterchef. But I stumbeled upon this video and it's cool to see that you are doing okay.
Now i still watching Master Chef Us S5, im so excited to see Ahran
Wow, I randomly checked in and you've just uploaded! Great video, it's great to see you back :)
We love you Ahran!
The food looks BUSSIN!! Dope Q&A it was cool to see this compared to your earlier videos. Ps. We love you, xqcL
wow seeing ahran now really shows how beauty and fashion trends changed immensely, she looks great (always did but wow)
As a fellow CAL Golden Bear and a huge fan of spicy, I'm definitely subscribing! Absolutely loved how much more spicy you kept making your food :D
Ahh i miss you really bad ahran. I love the leslie-ahran duo at MasterChef and actually rooting for both of you guys
(14 minutes of content)
Stunning
rose tteokbokki sounds so good! i know what im making next time i can get some rice cakes
I would be happy seeing you in master chef again, since they made season 12 it was back to win from the previous contenders who were close like some of them were top 8, the rest came back but now season 12 is finished.
Yes girl!! Loved the video, keep it up 😄
Your personality is amazing, you could totally make content creation a career.
I actually like the quiet cooking part. It would definitely be good to talk if you do more complicated skills but for a good simple recipe like this, the sounds of cooking is all I need!
Thx Ahran for your experience in MasterChef
I have learned a lot about u after answering those questions
And I understand it's hard to balance School and as a competitor
Btw love u so much
I was actually finding you on RUclips today after finishing the Fifth season of MasterChef! It is really good to see you back and by the way black hair suits more haha might have a crush on u :)
Congrats on the 20k subs!
Glad to see you can still throw down in the kitchen and hope to see more vids in the future Ahran!
Nice to see you back ^_^
Excited to see more videos
Woah you have gotten more beautiful than ever, Ahran. Also, glad to see that cooking is still your passion😙
I can’t even imagine if I had to look back on myself when I was 18, holy CRINGE 😂😂 at first I didn’t like Ahran simply because I loved Leslie but over time I really appreciated her and LOVED her new found respect for Leslie. They were great together💙
Hell yeahhh you were one of my favorite contestants. Made my first dish after being inspired by you way back then
