Cooking Up A Storm With Vivan Bhathena

Vivan's quote from Insta about 120 Bahadur: “From finding a brotherhood to even finding myself and my footing in life, it has been a journey of discovery and learning at every turn.” The super- fit Vivan makes a handsome army man.

My dietary preference: I am purely non-vegetarian. In non-vegetarian fare I like Kolhapuri fried fish, but my favourite is lamb shank (shank is a cut of meat from the lower part of the leg, just below the knee).

I begin my day: With a glass of water, lime and salts to hydrate my body.

My breakfast: Eggs and a cup of tea. I like my eggs sunny side up or scrambled. I skip bread.

My lunch comprises: Grilled chicken and some carb source—rice, pasta.

In the evenings I snack on: Nuts, protein shake or a smoothie.
