Reality shows are a way for people to showcase their talent around the world and shortcuts are not allowed.

But a reality show in Pakistan that wanted home cooks to participate and show their culinary skills saw something weird happen as a woman brought a dish from a restaurant and presented it to the judges.

The video, shared with the text, “Pakistan’s MasterChef is a Masterpiece," shows a woman entering with a box of biryani to present to the judges.

Confused by her presentation, the judges ask her if she requires a plate to present her dish to them. While denying that she doesn’t require a plate, she also revealed that the requirement of the audition as informed to her was to bring food for the judges.

She then revealed that since the requirement was just to bring food, rather than cooking it herself, she decided to buy biryani from a restaurant in her locality and present it to the judges.
