It was BS all over. Now I am wondering if the dishes the contestants cooked are also determined by the show 🤔

Sometimes it feels like it. Because the ease with which these contestants suddenly have their dishes in mind is not how it was earlier. In earlier seasons I remember contestants thinking long and hard about what to make and here they just know right away.

Dalia, Stuffed Paniyaram, Dosa are all being done at MC level makes me wonder I can also participate by giving some kahani 😂 sadly I am not from Kashmir or from NE like Nidhi

Don't worry. You can make up a sob story easily.

Let's see. Here's mine. I come from a small town family (Karnal is small town I guess) where girls are expected to follow the traditional path so I started learning how to cook as soon as I turned 18 because that was expected of me. Cooking would give me an outlet from my professional life because I'm the first in my family to make the move to business world and it wasn't easy. People didn't take me seriously because I didn't have the business language and because I didn't look the businesswoman part. It was stressful and cooking was my stress reliever. I quickly realized that cooking is my passion.

The true story you ask - I'm the first in my family in the business world and I learnt everything by myself. I cook because I enjoy making certain dishes and I especially like trying new recipes and baking. I am fully born and brought up in Canada and bullshit on the "traditional path" bit.

Chalo party deni hai toh MasterChef style deni chahiye. So presenting these masterpieces from MasterChef Australia.

You know what, you are giving the vibe/feeling of shaadi mei aae hue rishtedar🤣🤣

OK so now that I have raised the topic of relatives in marriage toh they are like

paisa toh kharcha kiya hai par decoration aur acchi hoti toh maza aata, decoration mei phool (flowers) fresh rakkhe hote toh accha hota, arey 3 counters hi kyun lagvaye, kamse kam 4-5 counters lagvane chahiye the naa, khaane mei 1-2 items aur hote toh accha hota.

baaki sab toh theek hai, thank you.

I am like jab itna sara kharaab hai hi toh theek kya hai isme.

Please specify the mode of transportation and the poor financial condition, how only the male members earn and the female members of the family have to depend on them even for a single penny, also add how you want to fulfill the dream of all the female members of your town/city and encourage them to become independent this will add the inspirational touch to your story, also add thoda saa aur sad story that how no one is supporting you and all the members of your village/town/small city are upset with you, make it more dramatic by saying that they are all taunting you etc etc etc.

Then go and present daliya, khichdi, daal chawal in MCI and say that whenever your family members fall sick you serve this with lots of love, so you have so many emotions attached from all these dishes.

I skipped through most of today's epi. I don't really care for the tasting cause I know Rukshar will get praised to the moon. Her dalia is getting praised tomorrow. Just imagine. Dalia. At a MC level.

Wait what, daliya? How? Why? What did she say, ki I am making daliya today in MCI? How did she describe her dish?

accha and chef Saransh also came in yesterday's episode, toh why did he come? What he did there? I mean any challenge or anything else? One more thing, why was he helping Rukhsar and no one else?

The tasting episode was such a waste. They were zabardasti finding faults or words to praise contestants.

1. Nambi - I am still in shock as to how a pate could be declared a winning dish. Never in my right mind would I order it in a restaurant. Anyway her dish lacked any colour. It was all brown (I know she added some pickle and something). Her sob story was probably most heart touching and that’s why she won it. I mean what was that stupid dialogue when it was her and Rukhsaar that you’ll are both kind and some shit like that 🤷‍♀️

2. Rukhsaar - her dish did look good and her elements quite interesting, but then I really like pana cotta. I’m not sure she had a great presentation even if chef Saransh plated it. Her dish may have been fantastic but the judges were literally praising her dish more than Nambis. Why then didn’t Rukhsaar win it? Something strange. Also, I notice that Bikas never gives a spoon drop easily, for me if a dish is being praised so much it deserved the spoon drop from Vikas. Since that didn’t happen, it was a good dish but not as much as they made it sound.

3. Aashiq - very good looking dish. I’m bored of him making prawns all the time. I get it that he wants to open a seafood restaurant but there’s fish, octopus, crab, squid, mussels he can use. So that was already a turn off for me. So his dish was initially praised and then chef Ranveer started nitpicking. I get that it may have had faults, but a lot of comments seemed forced. Did anyone notice Vikas and Pooja didn’t have a problem with garlic in the coconut mayo until Ranveer pointed it out.

4. Nidhi - guchi musalam with stuffed pulao. Where was the musalam masala, could see nothing on the guchi. Also morrels don’t have enough space to stuff carbohydrates (because you need more quantity of carbs). A nut sauce? I use it all the time to thicken my gravies or make my dish taste nicer, or just because I ran out of ideas. How was it pahadi? Also serving roasted nuts on the plate was kind of dumb. I actually was confused because nuts like that on dessert is fine, but or mains? Also a guchi pulao was served last year by Deepa. But of course her dish was praised to the skies. The judges sense and sensibilities baffle me.

5. Suraj - Bomb Alaska. We’ve see. This before on masterchef. Not easy to make or assemble. So I think he did a good job. His dish looked and sounded good. How many times was he asked if it was a French or Italian merengue? It was evident that they wanted to nitpick. Just talk about the flavours right, how does it matter how he made it. Do we go to restaurants and ask what merengue they’re serving us?

6. Harry - Gen Z dosa platter - were those dosas or uthappams? I think Harry bit off more than he could chew. Also looking at how thick his dosas were I don’t think he can really make dosas. Hai plating of course left a lot to be desired. So I better not say anything. For once I agreed with the judges.

Liked most people I’m surprised at this stage they make things like pulao, dosa. I’m now trying to think of a sob story to participate next time. Anybody want to help come up with a sob story?
