Shilpa Shetty recently took to Instagram to show how to make a simple chicken curry. The Dhadkan actor, who recently turned vegetarian wrote on Instagram, “This simple chicken curry recipe was shot much before the lockdown was announced (pre-shot 6 months ago!), while I have chosen to accept vegetarianism completely….do try this simple dish at home, as it’s easy to make. If you’re a vegetarian or don’t eat chicken, you could replace the chicken with soya chunks, potatoes, and peas.”
