Loud, angry, foul-mouthed chef Gordon Ramsay (who is really a pussycat after he blows off steam) is bringing a new culinary competition series to Fox. Its working title is “Masterchef.”

The series will take wannabe chefs who simply cook as a hobby and have absolutely no experience in the food industry and attempt to turn one of them into top professional chefs. The show is already a hit in the United Kingdom and Australia.

Contestants will be put through the paces with various challenges as they compete head-to-head to create delicious dishes judged by world-renowned chefs. The series will serve as a platform for people from all walks of life who want to follow their dream of working as a professional chef.

The show probably will debut sometime in 2010.
