Steemer Curry / Chicken curry by Priyanka Bishwas (Dentist)

Priyanka expressed she wanted to cook something that would be sufficient enough to satisfy the tastebuds of the three judges. She decided that Steemer curry would be her best bet. While preparing the dish, Priyanka mentioned that she has made this wonderful dish on multiple occasions and that it can be made in the least amount of time possible. It turned out to be a smart choice and she claimed the recipe was a modernised form of the original dish.

Kevdachi Dumpling by Mahendra Thulung (Restaurant owner)

This is a traditional street dish created in under seven minutes only. The cook was originally set to prepare another popular dish known as Taipav, which is a common street dish from his hometown. But the time restriction had him come up with this new recipe at the last moment. The dish was made out of potato with an East Indian twist.
