Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays?

Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays?

Yes! Most of the time 😁…

We just need an excuse to indulge our taste buds; what with so many dos and don’ts going around in our lives …home cooked food is still our Happy thing to do! Holiday- be it a Sunday/ Festival day or an off from work… We look forward to some treats on the dining table!

Chicken Biryani is a hot favourite. I do a good optimized version with a favourite Soda to go with it. The family helps… Slicing onions, washing chicken and tasting it at every stage is care of dear hubby. My son usually is the soft drinks and dessert in charge! The Seniors are needed to enjoy every bit of it😄😄

If it’s not food from the indigenous variety,then it’s Pizza with lots of everything – cheese,sausages, mushrooms,sweetcorn and some more cheese and a Mint lemonade to go with it. Here, at the assembly stage, the pizza is usually at risk of losing all its cover! Every helper at the kitchen table tries out every topping! At times, we run out of  stuff coz there were far too many food tasters!

Then of course, We have the usual tea and coffee sessions which take the shape of a dish being cooked😅 as there are many permutations and combinations at the hob… With milk, without milk, with sugar, without sugar, boiled variety, seeped style… Darjeeling, Assam, Dhaba, Lemon, ginger… You name it!!

So food is a Must do if We are staying home on a holiday!

  2. आपको हररोज ब्लोग लिखने चाहिए। आप बहोत बढ़िया लिखती हैं इस मजेदार खाने की तरह। हां खाना सिर्फ पेट नहीं भरता बल्कि दिल भी भरता है जब वो स्वादिष्ट हो। आपने तो फोटो भी ऐसी रखी है की मुंह में पानी आ जाए। आपको पढ़ना अच्छा लगता है। बहोत दिनों बाद आपने ब्लोग लिखा है। 👌👌😊

    Food clearly isn’t just food in your home. It’s celebration, collaboration, and a whole lot of love.
    A perfect reminder that holidays taste best when shared.💛🙏🏻🙂
