He now hopes to wow the judges with his vegan and vegetarian cuisine.
'I've been a vegetarian my whole life, and I really want to show off the potential that vegetarian and vegan dishes have,' he said on the show. Especially with a pan-Asian flavor combination.' 'Exactly what I was looking for.'
Rishi was one of the first nine chefs to compete in the audition stage in the first episode, which aired yesterday. Rishi's coconut, lemongrass, and chili aloo Tikki, garnished with coriander yogurt, a tapioca cracker, lime leaf sherbert, and raw mango chutney, wowed the judges.
