The battle has indeed begun in the Knorr Taste Quest kitchen, as our 14 finalists were presented with their very first task!
In this episode they were told to take basic rice to another level,
with the following ingredients; Rice, Liver, Tomato, Green Peppers,
Onions, Sweet Chilli Peppers, Knorr Seasoning Cube and the key
ingredient Lemon. They were given only 40 minutes to do this.
The judges informed them that they would be judged based on their
food presentation, management of ingredients and overall preparation of
the food. At the end of the cooking time, Victor emerged as the task
winner and was handsomely rewarded with Twenty Thousand Naira for his
efforts.
Kehinde Adetola was however placed on probation, while Antia and
Veronica were sent packing for a very poor performance. Two contestants
sent home in the very first battle? “Hot” is indeed getting “Hotter” in
the Knorr Taste Quest Kitchen!!!

Eco Sport SUV, and tons of Kenwood kitchen equipment for the first
