Transcript

00:00 There is huge chunk of the audience who loves to watch Masterchef.

00:04 Masterchef has been a really successful kitchen reality show in India and currently its 8th

00:10 season is going on.

00:12 Chef Ranveer Brar and Chef Vikas Khanna have maintained the USP of the show and of course

00:18 the contestants too.

00:20 The different on the spot recipes from various new ingredients are fun to watch.

00:25 Though many times it is not affordable for us to try those recipes at home, the task

00:31 and challenges are extremely exciting.

00:34 But now in this 8th season of Masterchef India, contestant Suraj Thapa for the first time

00:41 ever in the kitchen of Masterchef made a very productive yet easy and very tasty dish which

00:47 impressed the judges.

00:48 Suraj Thapa converted the kitchen scrap into a very crisp, tempting yet simple dish.

00:55 He presented the whole process through a video which left judges in awe.

01:01 Suraj used potato pills and some easily available Indian spices to make this easy dish.

01:08 He mixed potato pills and Indian spices which we use at home and kept that mixture in a

01:13 microwave for the whole night at a very low temperature and the crunchy flavoured chips

01:19 were ready to serve.

01:21 Judges tested it and called it a zero waste milestone.

01:25 They suggested to the audience that we should try this instead of throwing pills into the

01:30 garbage.

01:31 This video went viral and received more than 20 lakh views.

01:36 While this recipe seems easy and a zero waste product, the major concern raised by viewers

01:43 is electricity.

01:44 Looking at the current charges of electricity, it is not possible for a common man to keep

01:50 their microwave on overnight.

01:52 Thus practically looking, it is not zero waste milestone.
