Today’s episode begins with Anupama continuing to explain the dishes in her platter. She says everyone knows about the benefits of bitter gourd especially for diabetic patients.
She says there is no need to talk too much about it and then explains she has used tamarind in lentils. She says she made a Marathi dish using raw mango and tamarind. She had gone to Mumbai where she learned the dish from Sarita. She says it is also good for digestion.
Anupama Explains Her Platter
Anupama says she has used green and red chillies in the rasam. She explains that they help increase metabolism. Sikandar looks at her platter and asks which dish is the one that represents the soil of India.
Anupama says that the dish she has made cannot belong to only one state of India. She says it is kesar wali kheer. She explains that wherever there is a lot of love kheer is often mentioned. She says kheer is not the dish of only one region.
Anupama tells in different places kheer has different names. In some places it is called sheer khurma, in South India it is called payasam, and in Bengal it is called payesh. In Gujarat it is called doodh pak while in many other places it is simply called kheer.
Anupama Impresses With Her Knowledge
Anupama says kheer is so closely connected with festivals that it feels like a festival itself. she says kheer is also a treatment for the heart. When someone is sad they remember their mother. When a baby cries kheer is often offered to God.
She says kheer is made on many special occasions if it is someone’s first day at the office or the first rasoi. Anupama says kheer exists in different forms across India. It can be made with rice, makhana or even sabudana during fasting.
She says no matter what the region or festival is there is always some form of kheer. Anupama says kheer carries India’s culture and history. She describes how it is traditionally made by boiling rice with sugar and milk in an earthen pot and adding crushed cardamom.
She says the final ingredient is a mother’s love.
Everyone claps for Anupama.

Anupama Refuses to Play the Victim
Anupama says the dishes Prem tasted seemed too sour or spicy to her. She tells this is actually how the dishes were prepared and asks the judges to taste them themselves.
She says if the judges still feel she should be disqualified she is ready to accept their decision. But she says she has not cheated. Anupama says nowhere in the competition rules does it say if someone’s sense of taste stops working they cannot participate.
She says that is why she did not reveal the problem earlier. Anupama says she did not play a victim card but she took this risk because of her dream. She says there was no lack of effort from her side she says she completed the round honestly.
