Gigi Hadid's love affair with Indian cuisine is not a fleeting fling but a passion that has endured over time with her cooking skills. Even during her pregnancy, the model could not resist the tantalising spices of Indian cuisine. Her cravings were satiated with a sprinkle of spices like cumin seeds (jeera), turmeric powder (haldi), and an array of aromatic masalas like garam masala and tandoori masala in her food.
