Dal is a staple in Indian kitchens. Whenever we have to eat something light and healthy, we turn towards a bowl of dal. Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty is no different. Shilpa's culinary tales on Instagram always have our attention. Today, she gave us a sneak peek into her Saturday lunch. No marks for guessing the dish. Of course, she gorged on not one but two bowls of dal. Shilpa shared a snap of her meal on Instagram. The photo captured two bowls of dals, one presumably moong ki dal, garnished with chopped coriander leaves. “Thanks for the yummy lunch. I had to choose between two dals,” Shilpa captioned the post. And guess who sent over the food! It was none other than politician and fashion designer Shaina NC.
