First, they have to invent a dish from scratch in 50 minutes, using only the ingredients they have been given. 

Next, the three contestants who have shown the most potential will have to survive the heat of a professional kitchen. Today they are cooking at Wahaca. Can they keep their cool and stand the pace of this frantic kitchen?

Finally, they will have to impress the judges with a two-course meal that shows they have flair, skill and the potential to make it as a great chef. Only one of them will go through to the quarter-final and one step closer to becoming MasterChef.
