Hailey Bieber’s pizza toast. She claims she discovered the recipe when she was high. Her 17-step recipe calls for fresh tomatoes, burrata, parmesan, and sourdough. Her hack? Let the tomato slices marinate for five minutes in a dressing of lemon juice, olive oil, pepper, and salt, before you layer them on the bread. She also likes to toast the bread and melt the cheese before baking for six minutes. Yum.

Dolly Parton’s banana pudding. In her new cookbook, Good Lookin’ Cookin’: A Year of Meals, Parton and her sister Rachel rustle up their fav recipes for what they’ve eaten over the course of their lives. One of their favourites is a banana pudding recipe that’s been passed down by their grandmother to their mother and now to them. It’s rich – six egg yolks, six cups of milk, and nine bananas. No wonder it was their dad’s favourite.

Taylor Swift’s chai sugar cookies. Bakers gonna bake. The singer first posted a picture of her homemade batch in 2009, calling it “Christmas in September” because of the holiday-ish feeling the tea infused into the cookies. Lucky fans got a taste during the 1989 Secret Sessions in 2014, before the release of the album. When fans clamoured for the recipe, she revealed that she stirs in spoonsful of tea leaves into the cookie batter. Don’t forget the eggnog glaze – the icing on the cookie.

Kim Seok-Jin’s cold noodles. Jin is the unofficial chef of BTS for a reason. He’s whipped up fried chicken, sashimi, and his own favourite, naengmyeon – buckwheat noodles served with julienned cucumbers, radish, beef, and a boiled egg, in an ice-cold broth – for the gang. The singer says he can eat it multiple times a day, especially in summer.

Jackie Shroff’s baingan bharta. Those who hate brinjal aren’t cooking it right. Stuff the brinjal with green chillies and lots of garlic, village-style, and roast it on a flame, says Shroff, and you’ll be addicted to the smoky taste. The actor also likes to flavour the roasted brinjal with mustard oil and crush an onion into it before savouring it, slowly, with a dry roti. “Take your time with it,” he advises.

Alicia Silverstone’s artichoke, mushroom, and leek crostini. Silverstone, who calls herself “a professional eater”, says this recipe is one of her favourites from her book, The Kind Diet. It’s braised mushrooms and leek on artichoke and pesto. Bonus points if you can top it with fresh chives and basil. It’s perfect if you want to be extra fancy and impress your dinner guests.

Cameron Diaz’s leftovers ramen. “I call it whatever-you-got ramen,” Diaz says in an Insta video. Diaz just so happens to have diced carrots, shallots, broccoli, shiitake mushrooms, and her favourite ingredient, celery, lying around, which she adds to two packets of instant noodles. Tip: Finely dice all the veggies so they’re evenly distributed, ditch the seasoning powder and plop in copious amounts of ginger-garlic sauce instead.

Aditi Rao Hydari’s Hyderabadi khagina. This onion-egg recipe has Persian origins. In an interview, the actress mentioned that she’d make it if anyone came over unannounced. Saute half-moon onions in ginger-garlic paste before breaking three eggs in the pan, top it with a crushed garlic-and-chilli mixture. Have it hot, Hydari says, with steaming phulkas or white bread. Oddly specific, but we like it.

Meghan Markle’s zucchini Bolognese. Markle likes to let her zucchinis stew for hours so that they get soft and watery. Then, there’s no need to use oil or butter. It’s tossed with pasta and vegetable stock to create a creamy sauce. Apparently, it’s her hack for making pastas healthier. Who’s going to wait around for all that stewing, though?

Reese Witherspoon’s cowboy cookies. The actor got the recipe from her grandmother, Dorothea, who loved to throw dinner parties and inspired many of the dishes in her cookbook, Whiskey in A Teacup. She says you need to approach this recipe with a “Wild West” kind of experimentation – go crazy with chocolate chips or extra nuts or coconut flakes or omit them altogether if you want.
