Watermelon rice was one of the dishes MasterChef contestant Harry prepared on the show and was a super duper hit. We bet you have never even heard of it before.

This one is a healthier version of pizza. It is basically making a pizza on a thinly rolled-out chapati with tomato sauce and toppings as you like. He covers it and cooks it for about 10 minutes on a low flame. The cheese was perfectly melted, and with that, he made a quick and easy spinach corn medley.
