Malaika Arora is one such Bollywood celebrity who is in the talks for her appealing fashion sense and choice of clothes. Another thing that is most often associated with her is her fitness regime. You’ll spot her outside gyms and yoga studios of and on during the day. However, what the paparazzi can’t capture is what she shows us through her stories. Her tingling taste buds make her head to her kitchen to try out delicious dishes. She is even spotted eating out at the best of restaurants too. Why are we talking about all this? Wait, we’ll tell you.
So Malaika Arora is on a holiday in Goa and is enjoying the sandy beaches and sunsets. What caught our eye was her food plate. Recently, the mom-actor shared an image of her meal on her Instagram stories and we were quick to take a look. The actor was seen relishing a plateful of what looked like traditional Goan delicacies. While the picture did not have a caption, it was the location that said it all. She checked in the story as Bombil. This is a typical Goan restaurant situated in Panjim, which serves authentic, local Goan food in homemade style. Here, take a look.
The authentic flavours are oozing from her plate which consists of some coated and fried fish, shrimps, a watery curry, a thick sauce, some stir-fried vegetables and rice to go with it. In one of the bowls, we can see a yellow-coloured dish which seems to be a custard-like dessert with fruits. Now that Malaika has transported us to Goa with her delectable spread, we can’t be just drooling over it.
Here are some traditional Goan recipes that you can make at home.
1. Goan Vindaloo
An authentic Goan dish which originates from the time of Portuguese, the vindaloo is a hot and fiery mix of vegetables and meat. Usually pork is paired with the potatoes and onions for the vindaloo, but you can add chicken or lamb meat too. Pair it with rice or pao and enjoy.
2. Goan Fish Curry
Seafood is the staple food of Goans. The locals love eating everything, from prawns to shrimps and crabs. You also find a variety of fish delicacies on their menu. This fish curry is spruced up with the use of raw mangoes which gives the dish a distinct tanginess.
3. Goan Bebinca
A three-layered cake which is spongy and soft, the bebinca is a traditional dish from the beachy region. This is made from coconut milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla essence and a host of other ingredients.
