What's a meal without a dessert! Especially towards the end of the week, when the idea of adding something sweet and tempting to the menus is irresistible -- be it a homemade kheer or halwa -- kuch meetha toh banta hain. Dreamy, creamy, delicious, sweet courses make lunches, dinners (even breakfasts!) with family and friends even more memorable.
Chef Sarab Kapoor creates magic with a dish of the classic Mung Dal Halwa and by adding or subtracting nothing from its perfection, she offers her simplified but melt-in-the-mouth version that can be conjured up in 30 minutes if the mung is soaked hours in advance.
The halwa must be eaten warm, post a heavy bhojan and followed by an afternoon siesta.
Chef Kapoor's journey into food has had many unusual stops -- acting, television hosting, cookbook writing.
