#Lifeinthelockdown: Romah, who has never cooked before in her life, picks up some kitchen skills

Actress

Romah

was all set to make a comeback to Malayalam through the film

Velleppam

. The Covid-19 induced lockdown might have delayed her film, but Romah is not letting the time get wasted. Guess where she spends a lot of her time now? In the kitchen!


Romah says, “I think it’s a great time to learn something new. I have never cooked anything in my life, except for probably instant noodles (laughs). I am using this time to learn cooking from the best chef in the world, my dearest mom!” Interestingly, every day her mom gives her a few tips and tricks in cooking and Romah is now picking up the basics.


What does she cook? “Mostly Sindhi preparations I ought to know as a Sindhi myself, like wadi aloo, which is one of my favourites, moong dal and so on. We are pure vegetarians at home and we don’t even use egg. There is a perception that vegetarian food is boring, but mom cooks great delicious and spicy vegetarian food.There are also so many different varieties of dishes and different ways to prepare them. I hope to pick up some Sindhi preparations first and then graduate to South Indian and Chinese too, soon,” she says, signing off.
