‘Sone ka darwaza’: Inside Sunny Leone’s stunning Mumbai home with LA-style kitchen, private theater, DIY artwork, and stunning view | Bollywood News

Farah Khan, along with her longtime cook Dilip, had earlier visited Sunny Leone’s luxurious Mumbai home — and the tour quickly turned into a delightful experience. The property opens into a grand, five-star hotel-like lobby, which initially left Dilip thinking it was the main house itself, only to be led further in through what he excitedly called a “sone ka darwaza.” Stepping inside, the house boasts striking interiors — black-and-white marble flooring at the entrance, transitioning into sleek grey floors across the rest of the space. The decor follows a clean, minimal palette of white interiors, complemented by grey sofas, carpets, and curtains. Sitting area in Sunny Leone’s house. (Photo: Farah Khan/YouTube) Impressed, Farah said, “I want to see this house. It is lovely.” Her attention was soon drawn to a detailed artwork featuring Lord Buddha set against a black background, highlighted with intricate green and yellow patterns.

How Tensions Near Strait Of Hormuz Affect India’s Kitchen? Explained

How Tensions Near Strait Of Hormuz Affect India’s Kitchen? Explained

Read ahead to know how what is LPG, how it is made and the reason behind ongoing crisis across the country. A large share of global LPG shipments travels the Strait Of Hormuz, the narrow Gulf passage now under strain amid tensions in Iran. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is mainly mixture of Propane and Butane. These gases are normally invisible and weightless in the air. But when compressed, they turn into a dense liquid that can be stored in cylinders. That is why a household LPG cylinder can hold enough fuel for weeks of cooking. 60 per cent of the total LPG comes from Natural gas processing and remaining 40 per cent comes from oil refining. Millions of years ago, LPG formed underground. Ancient plants and marine organisms were buried under layers of sediment. Heat and pressure slowly transformed this organic material into crude oil and natural gas. LPG can be easily packed and stored in many ways, making it easy to transport. Check the above image to know how LPG is separated from natural …

How a Home Experiment in a London Kitchen Birthed a Ghee Brand

How a Home Experiment in a London Kitchen Birthed a Ghee Brand

Exactly a year ago, Chetasi Kane started an experiment in her kitchen, driven by the desire to make and eat homemade ghee. A few days of stirring, churning, and smelling later, and she had the final product — liquid gold, which is now bottled and sold as Ajji’s desi ghee across London. It was a regular spring day  in London. Winter was slowly giving way to spring — yellow daffodils were slowly popping out of the ground; the days were becoming slightly longer; the sun was finally shining (intermittently). Personally, January does not feel inspiring to start anything new. Short, cold, wet days can only inspire hibernation. But the start of spring is something else. It finally feels like a new start and the right setting to start something new. My large tin of Amul ghee, bought from an Indian Cash & Carry in East Ham, was almost over. It was a moment I had quietly been waiting for, so that I could attempt to make a batch of fresh ghee. I wanted to move …

The Holy Grail of the Bihari Muslim Kitchen 

A dish typically eaten during Baqr Eid, grail is mutton dish, integral to the Bihari Muslim table. Technically uncomplicated, its flavour belies its simplicity. Nighat Rana Alam dives into the many iterations of this family recipe, and the fascinating rituals that surround it. Bari Amma, the eldest lady of the household at the Choti Dumri Kothi (my husband’s paternal family) was elegant and stern. Widowed at a young age, she ran the household like a well-oiled machine. She was known for her cooking, and one of her most beloved dishes was grail, a mutton dish that is made at Baqr Eid. Technically uncomplicated, its flavour belies its simplicity.  There are two ways to make it: sukha (dry) or latpata (with a thick masala). Bari Amma’s grail, made in latpata masala, was the family favourite. I was too shy, a young bride, to ask her for the recipe. Many years later, her daughter generously shared it with me, and it turned out to be deceptively simple.You marinate the meat in a paste of onion, ginger and garlic, …

Why top cyclists carry women’s stockings, safety pins and kitchen funnels | Sport-others News

“Hahahaha, we are all crossdressers, and like to stay cool,” guffaws a senior support staff of a Spanish cycling team, as he pulls out a wad of women’s stockings. Pre-race team tents at cycling’s Pune Grand Tour, see hectic activity with mechanics fussing over bikes with fancy tool kits. But sport’s typical improvisations and last-minute hacks are unavoidable, and teams travel with paraphernalia which is straight out of a novelty shop: women’s stockings, thin ankle socks and safety pins. There’s also kitchen funnels and zealously guarded tags with riding symbology for maps that crunch race strategy into a 1 inch X 4 inch sticker. But first, the rolls of women’s beige stockings. Massive plastic carry bags deliver ice cubes to each of the 30 team tents. This ice is then chucked into the stockings and fashioned into ice bags that are dunked into the back of the jersey, below the neck, for typically hot racing days. “It keeps the cyclists cool and women’s stockings are best suited for their material because the ice stays intact …

‘Stay in the kitchen’: Dayanidhi Maran’s sharp ‘contrast’ between Tamil Nadu and north India sparks fresh political row | India News

DMK MP Dayanidhi Maran triggered a political row Wednesday with remarks comparing the status of women in Tamil Nadu to that in northern India, prompting sharp criticism from the Bharatiya Janata Party. Speaking to students at Quaid-E-Millath Government College for Women, at an event attended by Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin, Maran said women in the state are encouraged to pursue education and careers. In contrast, he claimed that in northern India, girls are often expected to stay at home, work in kitchens and focus on bearing children. Praising the DMK government, Maran described the administration under Chief Minister MK Stalin as a “Dravidian Model” that works on the principle of “everything for everyone” (ellarukum ellam). He claimed Tamil Nadu gives importance to education and empowerment, which has created a confident generation of young men and women, citing initiatives such as the free laptop scheme that he claimed prepares students for higher studies and employment. கழகத் தலைவர் மாண்புமிகு தமிழ்நாடு முதலமைச்சர் திரு@mkstalin அவர்களின் வழிகாட்டுதலின்படி, சென்னை மேற்கு மாவட்டம் செப்பாக்கம் திருவல்லிக்கேணி சட்டமன்றத் தொகுதிக்குட்பட்ட காயிதே மில்லத் அரசினர் …
