Sonam Kapoor Hosts an Intimate Dinner Party with an Indian-Inspired Menu
Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja recently hosted a cozy dinner party for a few close friends. The couple’s private chef, Velton Saldanha, shared a behind-the-scenes look at the preparations. His Instagram video, which has gone viral with 2.6 million views, offers a peek into the culinary magic.
The Menu: A Fusion of Flavors
The evening began with a “cocktail hour.” Guests enjoyed a grazing board and a unique twist on Aloo Tikki Chaat. Chef Velton described it as a mix of chilled coconut yogurt, parsley, cilantro chutney, and a spiced sweet potato almondine tikki. This creative appetizer set the stage for the meal.
A Delectable Dinner Spread
For dinner, Sonam and her guests savored a variety of dishes. The menu included Kerala-style curry, Honey-roasted duck masala, and Crispy garlic Brussels sprouts. Additional dishes like Chicken and basil shorba, Kolkata-style veggie milk pulao, Jeera baby aloo, and Green beans with coconut sabji added to the feast. Roasted black pepper chicken, Patli dal, Stir-fried chutney veggies with Barista onions, and steamed rice completed the spread.
The chef was prepared for any last-minute changes. When one guest mentioned they didn’t eat meat, he quickly made a substitution. The guests loved the food and appreciated the beautiful presentation.
Sweet and Simple Desserts
Dessert was light and refreshing. Chef Velton served a variety of gelatos and sorbets, which perfectly capped off the meal.
Sonam Kapoor’s dinner party was a hit. The carefully crafted menu and elegant presentation left the guests impressed and satisfied.
