These days Sonali Kulkarni's expeditions in the kitchen revolve around preparing things for her 10-month-old daughter Kaveri. She is usually busy preparing all sorts of juices and porridge for her. "The kitchen is full of her cuisine right now. I am so proud of her food habits. Kaveri's doctor is very impressed with her fondness for vegetables," she tells us.
"It surprises me that she doesn't have a sweet tooth. She likes namkeen stuff," adds the doting mother.
Post a rich diet during her pregnancy, the actress is also getting back to her regular diet. "I am getting back to my soups, salads and juices." But the change in the weather always bring along cravings, and Sonali loves indulging herself in Usal and Misal. "These days, about twice a week we have either matki and moong usal. I am always looking to break from the routine of chapatti and salads," she confesses.
Changing menu with changing seasons
While there isn't a hard and fast rule, for the season gone by — monsoons — Sonali says she follows what most traditional kitchens do. "I avoid going for the leafy greens. In fact, it has scientific basis. Studies have shown that heavy rains in certain areas may cause leafy greens to be exposed to contaminated soil due to rain splashing." During this season she prefers vegetables like "ivy gourd (tendli) and okra (bhendi)".
And in case of fruits, it's the seasonal variety and apples, she says. "And the changing weather calls for lots of hot drinks, so soups are always on." So is chai. Sonali, who is a "sada chai loyalist", says, "Chai should be chai not some spicy concoctions!" And one mantra she makes sure her family follows to the T is "Not to have anything stale," she says.
