<h2>Chocolate mug cake</h2>
From the many shows featuring chef Ranveer Brar we have seen on TV, we know that he has a sweet tooth. While the desi treats from Lucknow where he hails from might take a lot of time to prepare, these days when you are strapped for time in between working from home and washing vessels, this quick mug cake is all you need for a quick sugar fix. You can either use chocolate spread or Nutella from your fridge.

Chef Pooja Dhingra of Le15 &ndash; Caf&eacute; &amp; Patisserie is known for her airy macaroons and decadent cakes, but you don't always need fancy ingredients to bake a sweet treat, she says. "This is a great dessert fix and the recipe is super quick and easy when you are short on time. Most homes will have these basic ingredients. You can eat them with some ice cream, chocolate sauce or just dip them in chai. You can also add cocoa and salt to this recipe, in case you have cocoa at home to make chocolate ghee cookies," says Dhingra.

Take it from us. From our few trips to the market this month, one of the most easily available vegetables that we have spotted is beetroot. It might seem boring, but Abhishek Basu, executive chef, JW Marriott Mumbai in Juhu, has a solution, one that even kids would love. "We need to make eating fun for kids. These beetroot cutlets are packed with nutrients and taste good, too. They go well with burger buns and can be had for lunch as well," says Basu.
