The prologue to the challenge shows Ranveer cooking mock meat using alternative ingredients, in front of the contestants.

However, as the celebrity chef opens the challenge to the contestants,he tells them to replicate the same dish after tasting it as he calls the dish ‘High Stakes’.

This tense challenge marks the first elimination in the ‘MasterChef India’ kitchen.

Eight home cooks, including Kenneth G, Kaushalya Chaudhary, Suraj Thapa, Subhojit Sen, Sima Ahmed, Mohammed Aashiq, Kriti Dhiman and Rukhsaar Saeed, battle in this nerve-wracking Black Apron challenge.?

Rukhsaar possesses an immunity pin but she chooses not to use it for this particular challenge.

In another standout moment, Kaushalya, a vegetarian, refrains from tasting the dish, as it looks eerily similar to meat.?

Speaking about the challenge, chef Ranveer said: “The Black Apron challenge is designed to broaden the culinary horizons of our home cooks. Cooking is not just about taste, it is also about innovation and creativity.”

Ranveer further mentioned: “This challenge will not only push the boundaries of creativity but also test the contestants’ ability to adapt to unconventional culinary demands. Replicating the ‘High Stakes’ dish is a test of their cooking skills and I am proud of how each one of them has stepped up to the plate.”

Kaushalya, who faces a unique dilemma, shared, “Being a vegetarian, it is incredibly difficult to prepare a dish, one that replicates meat, without tasting it. However, chef Ranveer Brar guided me thoroughly, sharing intricate details about the ingredients. I am also grateful to my fellow contestant Mohammed Aashiq, who shared his tasting experience, helping me understand the dish better. Making the ‘High Stakes’ dish is much more than just a challenge. For me, it is a learning experience like no other.”
