After a decent introduction in the first two episodes, MasterChef Pakistan entered its second week with fifty contestants entering the season’s first boot camp.
Cooking enthusiast of all ages and diverse backgrounds geared up for their first ever challenge, judging their knife skills via a test of chopping onions.
It may sound easy, but the trail turned out to be quite tricky and only the best 20 surpassed the standards set by the three judges to enter the next round of the boot camp.
However, the journey of the failed bunch of 30 participants didn’t end here for the judges decided to test them yet again and select ten more deserving candidates for the next round.
After onions, the second task was to master the art of peeling and slicing potatoes to perfect size of a French fry.
The challenge bid goodbye to the remaining twenty who failed to impress the judges while the thirty moved ahead to the second round of the boot camp.
Conducted in Moin Khan Academy, the contestants had to get through a task as vigorous as a cricket match.
