Cooking Up A Storm With Naveen Kasturia

Delhi boy Naveen Kasturia has, over the last decade, won good reviews for a string of films and web shows such as Sulemani Keeda, TVF Pitchers, Aspirants, Pati Patni Aur Panga, Mithya, and the recent gritty political thriller Salakaar. In a significant departure from his earlier roles, he plays a spy in Salakaar. The fit actor reveals his relationship with food.

My dietary preference: I eat mostly vegetarian, though I do enjoy non-vegetarian food occasionally. Eggs are my absolute favourite. Boiled, sunny-side-up, scrambled, or with roti — I can have eggs in any form. Paneer dishes and besan chillas are also regulars in my meals.

The first thing I have when I wake up: A glass of water, followed by fruits and eggs.

My breakfast: Fruits, eggs, and some form of roti.

For lunch I have: Mostly paneer dishes. Paneer is my go-to at any meal.

My evening snack: It's not fixed, but I often have black coffee or a glass of milk with dates.

My dinner: Again, it’s a paneer preparation or besan chilla. Sometimes I switch it around with eggs or milk and dates.
