Sea food risotto with porcini mushrooms, Manglorean seafood dishes and sukha chicken can anytime anywhere gratify Frieda Pinto’s tingling taste buds.
She loves foodie and has her own choice of cuisines for different meals. She is very health conscious and compensates the calorie loaded diet with a dose of rigorous exercise.
Frieda’s favourite sweet dish is rasmalai and dark chocolate. She loves to eat variety of food and is in a habit of tasting the food of the region she visits, but is not a good cook. Still she can cook really good spaghetti Arrabiata and sukha chicken.
Her weekend becomes perfect with a non-vegetarian meal of sea food or a chicken dish. Since she has her roots in South India she prefers rice pancakes and other rice dishes than regular rice and chapattis. Apart from sea food, she is fond of the nawabi galawati kebabs.
