Tonight, Chef Daniel has something unique planned for the remaining few contestants of Rupchanda-The Daily Star Super Chef 2017. He is planning on entering the kitchen with a pumpkin plant! Covered in black cloth, it is surely going to spark curiosity among the participants.

The idea is both simple and intimidating: you must make something with pumpkin – the fruit itself, the flower, et al. This is surely going to be a very difficult challenge for the participants.

Pumpkin is very versatile; there are so many things one can make with it. On the other hand, the entire plant has various culinary applications.

The contestants will have to make intelligent use of the plant to impress the judges. As the fight for survival is growing intense, and one cannot give up in pressure and must think up something delicious and innovative. And converting a plant into a platter is no easy business.

The pumpkin challenge is only the start. After the battle is over, two of the six are going to be on the 'safe zone'. The rest four are going to wage yet another war that would determine their fate in the Super Chef kitchen, as one of them is going to be eliminated. The remaining contestants will have the bragging rights to call themselves the Top 5 of this year's competition.

The second challenge would be the ultimate battle. The contestants will be given a very common food – something which is readily available in more or less all households in our country. But who thought that this seemingly simple item can be the pivotal factor in this competition?

Of course, it will be a race; mishaps and mistakes, twists and turns, tricks and tactics. And one of them, inevitably, will have to bid farewell. Who will it be?
