My Life on a Plate

The teams are set, and it's time for the competition to begin.

The first challenge is a group challenge, where the competitors get help from their respective mentors in cooking to a theme -- this time it's "My Life On a Plate". Each contestant must cook a dish or use ingredients that hold a special place in their hearts. Each mentor must then pick one of their team's dishes to be judged blind by famed chef Edward Lee. The mentor of the team that finishes on the bottom has to send home someone from their own team. Ouch.

Next up, the contestants must cook on their own so the mentors can judge blind. The mentors taste everything, and then each picks their favorite dish -- which earns a gold star -- and their least favorite -- which earns a red star.
