A lady of many talents with a bold and outspoken demeanor, Farah Khan has stuck around in the Bollywood industry long enough for everyone to see. From a choreographer to a director, judge and well, a mom of three, Farah Khan Kunder has filled her cap with lots of feathers. Her love for food might not make it to her Instagram but we’ve heard about the special feasts that are hosted at her place in several conversations. From her biryanis to kebabs, her friends have always praised her for her cooking skills. 

In fact, a while back, the Om Shanti Om director was in Doha and we had the chance to catch a glimpse of her delectable food spread. While that had loads of hummus, pita and falafel, this time it was a sweet treat that caught our eye. Farah Khan pulled up a prank with her friends in a restaurant in New York and got some free dessert. Oh yes, you read that right? Here’s what she confessed on her Instagram stories.

She posts a picture of herself sitting on a chair, surrounded by her friends, with a well-lit cake in front of her. She captions it saying, “Things we do 4 free dessert!! #newyorkstateofmind”. In the next story, we see her owning up to the act and saying, “My birthday’s on the 9th of jan” with a laughing emoji. Seems like Farah Khan and her gang managed to fool the restaurant pretty well and got a delicious cake in return. 

All this talk of cake and sweets is making our heads swirl and we think our sweet tooth needs a bite or two. So how about making a dessert today? Here are some refreshing summer desserts to keep you sweet and cool. 

1.  Strawberry Shortcake 

A crunchy and crusty biscuit base with sliced strawberries dipped in sugar syrup on top is what this shortcake is all about. Top it with some whipped cream and powdered sugar and you are good to go. 

2.  Peach Crisp 

Filled with the goodness of peaches, this fruity affair has a lot of taste. Juicy peaches are mixed in honey and topped with crunchy oats. Sprinkle some lemon zest and roasted almonds and enjoy. 

3.  Cherry Parfait 

A layer of fresh greek yoghurt topped with another layer of crunchy granola with another layer of cherry compote, this dessert is quite layered. This French parfait comes with fruits, freshness and more.
