What is your favourite cheat food?
Pani puri. and Lasagne
What would your last meal on Earth be?
Maa ke hath ka khana. The last meal needs to be a meal I relish the most.
Do you cook at home? What do you make?
Yes, I do cook. In fact, I enjoy cooking. I cook pretty well. I am a vegetarian and can make varied recipes but yes I make amazing chole, Chinese, pizzas, burgers, and sandwiches. I learnt burger patty from my Maasi and my family has a knack of adding healthy stuff to everything so beetroot is added and Maida is avoided. And the cutlet can be made with varied veggies to the aloo mix as it enhances the taste.
Baked or fried?
Both but baked preferred just a tiny bit more.
Soup or salad?
I love both. Summers are dominated by salad while winters and rainy seasons see more soup consumption in my house.
One vegetable that you hate the most?
I won’t say hate because my father was a hard taskmaster in making kids eat veggies but yes there is a dislike for parwal (pointed gourd) and lauki (bottle gourd).
Your erotica food?
Cheesy food and dark chocolate cake
Weirdest dish you ever ate?
A vegetable Ice-cream
