Mystery Box Challenge: Choose Your Own & Invention Test: Food Trends 2015
7.8 10 The top 5 finalists compete in their last Mystery Box Challenge. Contestants were allowed to choose one ingredient from the box each in 30 seconds, followed by one ingredient chosen by each of the judges before cooking in 60 minutes. All the contestants received praise for their dishes, particularly to Sara's Beetroot Squid dish and Billie's Beetroot and Dill Stack but Sara's unique dish won her the challenge. She was given an advantage in the Invention Test where she had to choose one of three Food Trends: "Cheeks and Jowls", "Peel the Stem" and "Savoury Sweets" for the contestants to cook their dishes in 60 minutes. Sara chose to peel the stem however, her advantage failed when she struggled for the options of her dish with the decision of leaving off the watermelon skin during the cook before serving it to the judges, who criticised her dish that did not meet the brief of the challenge. Jessica's dish splits the judges' opinions on the use of her ingredients. Reynold struggled early on, using a protein instead of a vegetable. Realizing his mistake, he used celery for his dish which impressed the judges but it lacked creativity as they preferred the dishes of Billie and Georgia and named them the top 2, sending Reynold to join Sara and Jessica in the Pressure Test.
