Pick one Emraan Hashmi song
I think she was one of the 1st few contestants to recognize the apparent favoritism and spoke of it in the bg comments, esp about team decision challenge. I wonder if the channel put that on purpose to produce mixed response or was this unintentional or what? Who knows. 🤷♀️ 😂
I have used Chayote extensively in savoury dishes like sambar & kootu(dal, coconut mix added with the veggie) and also as a dry sabzi aka poriyal/ thoran. What I don’t get it how come Chayote is cooked with just boiling it like a pear? It takes about 20 mins to even cook in a roughly cubed form. I love Chayote sambar, so i know how it works. What Garima said is a basic thing. When you want flavours to penetrate in a not soft veggie you do this pricing of the veggie. Dum aloo is cooked this way. Stuffing inside a chayote, so meh 🤷🏻♀️ Also, I cannot imagine how did chayotte did not leave it’s inherent taste in the dish(the taste of Chayote can be felt in the sambar) & Aruna’s dish became second best.
I cannot comment on KDK’s fish because i don’t eat sea food. Agreed her presentation was meh. Uff the promotion for amul pantry, fortune oils & bosch dw was so off putting but now the cooking has also become so boring. I directly went to tasting.
Ranveer kept talking as if KDK got so much inspiration by seeing her hubby’s photo. Understood they are all apart from family for so long. I have never seen KDK talk she misses her hubby. She always talks about missing her kids. I have stayed apart from my hubby for a good 4 months. I never got any inspiration to cook a storm 😂😂

So basically todays challenge was everybody cooks with the same ingredients (except Aruna maiyya). I didn’t understand the point of everyone choosing a different cloche.
Anyway, Priyanka got diary and her cloche had ghee, she kept it. It was a great ingredient. Second was Suvarna, she got minced meat and only changed it for Aruna, the second cloche had rawas (fish), Nayanjyoti’s cloche had baking, Kamaldeeps cloche had chayote squash that she only kept because everyone else was comfortable with it. Aruna went last and got sichuan peppers, everyone was ok with it, but she wasn’t. Her second cloche had basil.
Then comes an announcement that Aruna will use paneer! If Aruna was allowed to use paneer, that option should’ve been made available to the others too. Maybe we’d have seen a few more variations of kalakand. Since chef Manav made kalakand and won, the contestants think making kalakand will make them win (did happen for KDK)! Seriously there’s hardly any creativity this season.
Talking about the dishes -
Suvarna - her plate looked like a mess. Even a 10 year old would plate better. She’s great at Maharashtrian flavours and should’ve aced this challenge. She clearly hadn’t used chayote squash before and was clueless what to do with it. I wish she’d atleast done something more with her fish, and then maybe just serving the squash as a salad with some chatpata masala.
Kamaldeep - she chose to make Amritsari machchi, with a chayote squash salad and hollaindaise flavoured with basil. She made an everyday dish, where was the innovation? She just paired it with something different.
A squash used as salad wasn’t anything new either. Maybe it tasted great, but it wasn’t a dish good enough dish to win the immunity pin.
Priyanka - I really liked her thought. To make a fish flan, which is not common or done before on the show. I forgot what she did with her other ingredients. But full marks for innovation. The judges felt her dish didn’t have enough flavour.
Nayanjyoti - I loved how he made the pasta - those coloured lines, the shape, it looked lovely. It’s a pity his dish wasn’t liked.
Aruna - she stuffed kalakand made with paneer in poached chayote squash. She didn’t even know how to poach, needed help from those in the balcony. Again her dish wasn’t an innovation. First we’ve seen kalakand for the third consecutive challenge, secondly stuffed kalakand is nothing new.
During tasting except for Kamaldeep, everybody’s dish had quite some negatives. Still Aruna’s dish was the second best - when the sugars hadn’t penetrated the chayote squash. Something that basic.
I don’t think any dish deserved to win the immunity pin today. Firstly it was an easy challenge, then there was nothing unique about the dish, also presentation was quite bad.
TFS, he does seem nice & quite humble person. Definitely, looking forward for him as a captain and how he works as captain since he panicked in his 1st team challenge & after working with Priyanka thrice, Priyanka overtook him twice except for the challenge where both cooked identical dishes like both were equally communicating their ideas.
very good. Much needed after giving her paneer.

I liked today's challenge. Everyone has the same ingredients, the same cooking method, and the same spices.
Lol I just had choyote squash today for lunch. 🤣 My mom commented, "Copying me huh?" 🤣
I feel like Aruna getting paneer was dubbed afterwards. Maybe they had some push back from the channel after the episode was shot to change it. The challenge was probably slightly different as well. This wasn't a chef decision. The voice didn't sound like Ranveer either. Honestly I'm not surprised. My one concern when the show moved to Sony was channel interference. Sony is not known for being kind to its shows and I expected some interference here.
Unlike everyone here, I don't think they are setting Aruna up for the win. They'll probably make her 1st or 2nd runner-up. The winner will be someone who is a surprise for us - I'm hoping Gurki or maybe even Nayan. Plus they've had female winners for 3 seasons in a row. It's time for a male winner.
Garima's comment to Suvarna was so on point. She literally said I put chow chow in it because I had the ingredient so why not. Garima said, but if there's no flavour then what's the point. Which is so right? What's the point of using the ingredient if you aren't tasting it? Just because you have to?
Last season winner was male
lol, by the time, this is done, humne pehle se hi figure out krlia ta that finale episodes are been shot/process of shooting lol🤣apni vishsesh tipani dene ka koi faida nhi h lmao...
