“From millets to French techniques: Chef Anahita Dhondy challenges the home cooks of MasterChef India Tamil and Telugu
With each passing day, the level of competition in the MasterChef India Tamil and Telugu kitchen keeps heating up. This week, Chef Anahita Dhondy laid out new challenges before the home cooks of both the reality shows. Inspired by her mother, a chef and caterer, Chef Anahita knew from a young age that she would don the chef’s hat. An alumnus of Le Cordon Bleu, London, she is an expert in French pastries and cuisine. She strives to promote lost recipes and ingredients, such as the traditional grain millet, in her cooking. Winning awards such as the Young Chef India award and the Times Food Award, she is recognized both nationally and internationally for constantly championing her traditional Parsi cuisine.
In the MasterChef India Tamil kitchen, Chef Anahita brought along with her the ‘Challenge Marathon’. In this challenge, the home cooks were divided into groups of four and each home cook had to perform one skill test to save themselves from the Elimination Challenge. Chefs – Koushik, Shreeya, Rakesh and Anahita demonstrated the skill tests which were making an accordion potato, using piping techniques, making a perfect mayonnaise, and poaching an egg, respectively.
Chef Anahita’s challenge in the MasterChef India Telugu kitchen was divided into two different challenges. In the first challenge, the home cooks had to demonstrate their sugar work skills by decorating cupcakes. The home cooks with the two best sugar work presentations won an advantage for the next challenge. The second challenge was a team challenge, where both the teams of four home cooks had to prepare a three-course meal using millets. This challenge came with a twist as only three home cooks from each team could cook at the same time. One home cook from each of the teams was always on standby and could be switched with their teammates at any point during the cook.
Stay tuned to witness the home cooks of MasterChef India Tamil and Telugu to dive headfirst into the challenges presented by Chef Anahita Dhondy as they delve deeper into this extravaganza in pursuit of their culinary dreams.
