    Round Up - Nominees And Winners Of THE MASTER CHEF CONTEST


    Hi Friends... Here is the round up for the Master Chef Contest. Sorry for keeping you all waiting!! I had to evaluate each and every recipe, I did not randomly select a winner I have put lots of effort to select all the nominees and winners. I just want to congratulate and thank each and every participant for participating and making this event a grand success!! All your recipes were really awesome and it was a very huge task for me to pick out the best, because everybody's recipes were the best!! So I had to prepare a score sheet and find out the winning recipe..Imagine me evaluating all 160+1 recipes all alone :( it was a difficult yet I had a nice time visiting all your blogs and reading all your recipes. Thanks once again for making this event a success. 

    Important Note : Please do inform me if I have made any mistakes here!!

    I have provided scores based on the following;
    1. Taste/Quality (50 points)
    2. Explanation (30 points)
    3. Presentation (15 points)
    4. Pictures (5 points)
    The major task for me was selecting the winning recipe!! I had to toil my brain and finally selected the winning recipe based on the score. Sorry for not putting links to your page it will take another day for it.

    Apart from first, second and third prizes I have chosen some appreciation awards for  9 different categories as follows;
    • THE BEST CHICKEN RECIPE
    • THE BEST CHICKEN GRAVY RECIPE
    • THE BEST PANEER RECIPE
    • THE BEST DESSERT
    • THE BEST HEALTHY RECIPE
    • THE BEST SIMPLE YET YUMMY RECIPE
    • THE BEST INNOVATIVE RECIPE
    • THE WELL EXPLAINED RECIPE  and
    • THE BEST TRADITIONAL RECIPE
    I want to make sure that everybody who participated are the winners. Yet this is a contest and I had to chose just one winner. 
    Below are the Nominees and winners for the awards. 
    Lets start with the appreciation awards.

        Hi Veera, thanks for the visit.. Yeah I have put the winners list as images, I had to post a bigger round-up and I had not much time to post the links to each recipes.. May be as per your idea I'll put links to the winning recipes alone. Thanks for the suggestion..Keep visiting!!

        Thanks Divya .. Hoping to you see lot of good recipes from your end!

        Also try to put step by step pictures for your recipes (like you used to do in your earlier postings) which will be helpful to view and try to cook.

        Thanks for your wonderful recipes and your continuous postings..

        Keep Posting!
