Kashmir’s Own Master Chef: 200 Chefs Set to Impress in Kashmir Culinary Battle

SRINAGAR: Inspired by the reality cookery show Master Chef India, a similar but local show is coming up in which 200 contestants will compete against each other to win prize money worth Rs 50,000.

To highlight Kashmiris’ culinary prowess, ConsortX Media and Dabur Homemade are collaborating to host the first social media-based cooking competition in the valley, called ‘Home Chef’. The registration for the show has already begun, and the organizers expect that 200 chefs from the valley will tantalize the taste buds of the jury to showcase local talent.

The show, as per the organisers, will be judged by the celebrated chef of Kashmir Yaseen Rishi, who will select the winner after assessing their creations in two phases.

Organizers said the show has two phases, including a social media contest and then a face-to-face cook-off in a commercial kitchen.

“Six finalists from this pool will advance to the much-anticipated cook-off, which is scheduled to take place in a commercial kitchen in Srinagar,” show organizer Junaid Hakim said.

He said more than 150 participants have already registered for the show.

“The show’s registration period opened on December 11. It’s simple to reserve your position; Just register online at https://ift.tt/4dXmLEN. In addition to offering the possibility to win a sizable financial reward of Rs. 50,000, Home Chef-Kashmir also guarantees media attention that may propel your culinary endeavours to unprecedented heights,” Hakim said.

Regarding the first phase- the social media contest, he said the dishes will be judged based on the preparation and the presentation. “The jury will assess the preparation, which includes ingredients and then the presentation of the culinary,” Hakim said.

He said this show, however, is different from the format of Master Chef India, given that more contestants can opt for their registration.

“This is a democratised master chef in which more participants can participate. This show will help aspiring chefs to make a career in the hospitality sector,” Hakim said.  (KNO)
