  "account": "In Episode Three of Big Chef Season Five, two contestants may face eviction after the introduction of the Ampesi Challenge. The young chefs have already demonstrated their skills over two weeks, but the competition's tension is palpable as they prepare for the upcoming challenge. Last week's Gari Fotor Challenge saw contestants struggle with salt levels, with Setthlyne earning the Star Chef of the Day title. Yayra and Michael are currently in the bottom two, but host Michelle Agyekum intervened to save Yayra's position. The Ampesi Challenge, featuring a popular Ghanaian meal of boiled yam, plantain, or cocoyam with sauce or stew, demands impressive flavors, presentation, and execution. The stakes are higher than ever, with the possibility of two contestants being evicted this Sunday at 4:00 pm on Joy Prime.",
