Victor was selected team leader for his group, while Doom was appointed team leader in Adetola’s team. Their ingredients included; Rice, Ugwu leaves, Raw egg, Steak, Assorted peppers and Knorr cubes.


At the end of the cooking time, Victor’s team made Jollof rice topped with plain Egg Omelet, Warm Salad and Ugwu Salsa, Steak Kebab with the peppers as a garnish, While Doom’s team prepared Jollof Rice with Knorr Pan Fried Steak on a Roasted Bell Pepper Sauce, and a side dish of Ugwu Egg Sauce.
