Priyanka Chopra Jonas has officially settled in America; however, she will always crave the beloved 'ghar ka khana' (home-cooked food) no matter what. In one of her recent interviews, the star opened up about her preferred morning dishes and shared how much she loves and misses home-cooked food.
Priyanka Chopra talks about how she starts her day with food
While talking to Pinkvilla in a recent interview, the famed 'Varanasi' actress opened up about her eating choices and what she usually has to start her day. While discussing this, she shared that whenever she comes to India, she indulges herself and starts her day with parathas. "If I'm feeling indulgent, which I did two or three days ago while I've been in India, so I do like parathas in the morning. I love stuffed parathas; they're my favourite," the star revealed. She also mentioned dishes like idli-dosa and poha for a lighter start to the day. Besides these, she mentions eggs, omelets, and avocado toast for her everyday breakfast routine.
Priyanka Chopra on her love for home-cooked meals
Further in the interview, she mentioned missing home-cooked meals a lot when she is in the USA, and that is all she eats when she travels to India. She added that "I love ghar ka khana, so when I'm in India I only eat ghar ka khana because in America I get Indian food but it always comes in dabbas (boxes) so it's never like fresh." Priyanka also admitted that she does not know how to cook, which is why she often has to get Indian food from restaurants. Not only that, but she also added that her husband has not learned how to cook Indian food. She trails off, deep in thought after this, and cheekily admits, "Hmmm…that's something to think about," and laughs it off.
