Tonight, the remaining four celebrities' first challenge is a Knowledge and Skills Test, where the celebrities face judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace one by one. They will attempt to identify four types of tropical fruit before being asked to make sweetcorn fritters, smashed avocado and a poached egg in just 20 minutes.\n\nAt this point in the competition, the celebrities would usually next be sent to work with and learn from a professional chef in their restaurant kitchen. As this is not currently possible, John and Gregg bring the chef to the celebrities. With a style that combines the eclectic flavours of her Punjabi heritage and British upbringing, along with her experiences with French and Italian cusine, Sabrina Gidda challenges each of the four celebrities to cook one of her favourite recipes. \n\nThen, to stay in the competition, the celebrities must channel all they have learned from Sabrina into one dish inspired by their favourite restaurant delivery. With just one hour to cook, the celebrities give it their all in a last attempt to prove themselves to the judges because at the end of this test one of them will be going home. The other three proceed to this week's quarter-final.
