Taking to Instagram on October 12, celebrity chef and MasterChef: A practical reader guide

Taking to Instagram on October 12, celebrity chef and MasterChef India judge Kunal Kapur shared his special recipe for a dessert that those who are keeping vrat can indulge in as well: the strawberry kuttu parfait. The festive season is here, and so are the feasts. But people keeping vrat on Navratri often have to miss out on the treats. The recipe is part of his Navratri special series on Instagram.

He began his career with the Taj Group of Hotels and has since won numerous awards as a chef. The detailed steps to prepare the sweet dish are presented as follows. The first step is to prepare the kuttu crumble. In a large plate, take a cup of kuttu atta, two tablespoons of desi ghee, four tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of sendha namak. Rub the ingredients with both hands and give it a sandy, crumbly texture. The texture should be such that it binds when pressed together, and then crumbles when the pressure is removed. Kunal Kapur is a celebrity chef and restaurateur who is also one of the hosts of MasterChef India. However, his training in culinary skills began at home with his father and grandfather. He has also opened his own establishments across the country and abroad.

Born in September 1979 in New Delhi, he pursued higher education in hotel management.
