JWB Dishes On 18-Year-Old Chef, Vedant Bahri Who Wrote Cheat Recipes For Teens
- JWB Post
- August 6, 2016
I’m probably one of the biggest foodies you’ll ever meet. You could wake me up in the middle of the night for food, and I will not deny it. I swear pizza is like my secret love affair, and I am married to the gym. My apparent spouse won’t even let me have any cheat days!
What do I do?
Fear not, I have found us a savior named Vedant Bahri. Vedant is a young Chef, whose book ‘Cheat It All’ was published recently and is getting attention for all the right reasons. Vedant writes for us french-fry-loving youngsters who want to lose weight giving up the food that makes you want to binge. Vedant’s book is full of recipes that give a nutritious spin to the dish without it losing its taste. And as he soon leaves to study hospitality management at the acclaimed École Hôtelière de Lausanne in Switzerland, we can expect more surprises coming from him in near future.
Vedant spoke to us on Twitter. Here it is:
Hey everyone! Today we’re interviewing @VedantBahri , a young chef who’s recipe book ‘Cheat It All’ Will Release soon!

Hi @VedantBahri hope you’re ready! 😊
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur hey.. I’m ready 😊. Although the book has already been released recently and is on Flipkart/ Amazon
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Silly, silly me.
@womenofjaipur well, I just turned 18 a few months ago.. I started writing the book at 16
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
BRR, my inferiority complex is kicking in.
@VedantBahri Do you hear that guys? That is amazing! Anyway, let’s move on to the questions 😀
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@VedantBahri First one, why did you choose to gift your sister this recipe book?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur So she can cook her own food rather than commanding me.. Haha. Cooking is an essential skill. She must learn it to survive
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri 😂😂 So what’s one recipe from your book that you specifically love?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur being a cheesecake lover❤️.. Definitely the baked cheesecake made with Kwark cheese.. As good but much healthier!!
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
CHEEEESSSEEECAKE ! [insert heart eye emojis]
@VedantBahri What’s Kwark cheese? 😍
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur Quark or Kwark is a lower fat European cheese, that is made by the Indian brand Flanders. It’s like a healthier cream cheese.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri fancy! And it sounds delicious 😍 So you referred to junk food as comfort food. What’s your comfort food?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur my comfort food is anything warm, light, homemade,delicious and in a large quantity. Spaghetti bolognese perhaps.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri Why are teenagers your target audience?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur not specifically teens- youngsters. 2 reasons.. It’s food that they eat the most-junk, burgers pizzas and western stuff.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
This book is meant for me. I am meant for this book.
@womenofjaipur second, most don’t know how to cook. These recipes are healthier, quicker and super simple. Even a beginner can make easily
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@womenofjaipur junk is tasty but unhealth. Why not make them healthier and eat without guilt? This book is for anyone that enjoys good food.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri well said! So what’s your definition of a balanced lifestyle ?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur eating well (lack of chemicals, wholesome food).. Exercising for at least 20 minutes a day for the sake of your body.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
If you go to the gym, make sure you get in at least 30 minutes of exercise, lol. Else, your trainer will judge you.
@womenofjaipur being mentally, physically and intellectually active! Eat less chemicals in your food and exercise a bit.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri Can you name a few alternatives to some sinful ingredients?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur sugar- erythritol/stevia. Milk/almond milk. Butter- coconut oil. To name a few
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@womenofjaipur I used sinful ingredients but in lesser amounts than regular recipes.healthy ingredients=average taste- for me,TASTE IS KING!
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri what is your take on crash dieting ?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur great for temporary happiness. Health is a lifestyle- no shortcuts unfortunately. Gotta be consistent with everything
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri well said! What’s the most innovative recipe in your book?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur Salad in jars! New concept in India. Also the celebrity interview section is quite innovative.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
I love going to places that serve their drinks in mason jars. They are so cute!
@VedantBahri mason jars all the way! So what’s your favorite superfood?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur amaranth and quinoa.. My fave grains.
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
A bowl of Quinoa is the Qui to a healthy body. Lol, see what I did there?
@VedantBahri and what’s your perfect cheat deal meal like?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur big juicy burger, mashed Potato on the side. Cheesecake slice and then a late night serving of my favourite dessert- Ghewar!
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Somebody, please, take me to McDonald’s!
@VedantBahri oh my! What’s your favorite cuisine?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur American food for sure.. I used to live on Mcds at the age of 14-15. Enjoy steaks, burgers etc a lot now
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri And what’s your favorite fitness quote ? 😝

— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur with all the cheese and chocolate available, I don’t think i would miss anything Indian 😂

You have that advantage, but believe me, you’re gonna miss Indian food like crazy.
@VedantBahri😂😂😂 you never know. One Indian dish you’ll treat your friends to in Switzerland ?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur definitely butter chicken.. The epitome Indian cuisine
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
*Stomach growls intensively*
@VedantBahri *slurp noises* What’s one song that makes you hungry?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
Main toh raste se jaa raha tha. Main toh bhel puri kha raha tha…
@womenofjaipur songs don’t make me hungry. I strictly use them to make me work harder in the gym
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri that’s nice! What’s one food that makes you laugh?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur don’t know about laugh.. But a box of Ghewar from Jaipur makes me excited!
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri Here’s a virtual Ghewar for you ☺️ Now for short questions. Kulfi falooda or gelato? pic.twitter.com/UQ68AHPxWD
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur😍.Although I like it more without malai.Gelato.Kulfi falooda is not satisfying.Just a scoop of hazelnut gelato does the trick
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
But, but, Kulfi falooooddddaaaa!!!
@VedantBahri Pepsi or coke?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur none! Both are extremely harmful I’ve heard. I enjoy the occasional Catch Clear Peach (0cal and delicious!)
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Peaches are just peachy! [more heart eye emojis]
@VedantBahri khichdi or white rice pressure cooked with clarified butter and lentils?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
This is literally how restaurants make us drool over fancy names to basic dishes, lol.
@womenofjaipur believe it or not I’ve never tried Khichdi as I don’t like how it looks. Gotta go with the latter. Aren’t they the same tho?
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri yes they’re the same 😂😂😂 Real Chinese or desi chinese?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur both.. But desi honey chicken for life ❤️
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Chilli Paneer and Hakka Noodles, OMG.
@VedantBahri would you rather eat a burger with a spoon or soup with a fork?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur anything to do with a burger.. Hate soup haven’t had it in years!
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri hands or chopsticks?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur hands.. Chopsticks can be tricky
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Thank you, God, for bestowing upon me the power to handle my ramen noodles with chopsticks, heh.
@VedantBahri one message for teenagers?
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur follow your passion and believe in yourself
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
@VedantBahri lastly, what dish would you cook for team JWB? This interview has got us feeling hungry. 😝
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur haha spaghetti with garlic, olive oil and cherry tomato perhaps
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
Just hearing about Aglio Olio makes me so hungry!
@VedantBahri😍😍😍 Thank you for your time and that hunger intensifying conversation! We wish you all the luck for your future
— JaipurWomenBlog.org (@womenofjaipur)
@womenofjaipur thank you very much. My pleasure 😊😊
— Vedant Bahri (@VedantBahri)
By the end of the interview, I just wanted to have some food cooked by my mom. Never has my tummy growled so much!
Anyway, guys, Vedant’s book is available on Amazon and Flipkart! Check it out and ensure for yourself a guilt-free and delicious, healthy diet.
Until then,
Annyeong.
