Recipes

This page contains the results of my adventures in the kitchen.  Masood, my dear husband, is my main critic.  It just makes sense;  after all, he’s the reason why I’m putting so much effort in trying to whip up special meals each time.  Recipes that get five stars from him will end up in this page.   To my younger sisters who are or are going to manage their own kitchens, feel free to try these recipes.  Just click on the picture to get to that post.

    *Drools* oooh, I want that date and honey cake now! It looks so delish!

    Love, Falak

    Ah, my sweet sister, Falak! Yours is the first comment in here :)

    Whenever you get the chance to visit UAE, come over to my place and I’ll bake for you.

    You try and go there without me to get the whole cake, Falak and I will pull out your hair or something equally nasty.

    Really.

    No, I will. I don’t joke about yummy food.

    LOL – How did you even know Falak was here? :D

    She told me, LOOL. We were talking and she started on about cakes and said you were going to bake her one if she goes to UAE and I got all jealous, ;-)

    LOL! I’ll bake for you too. No need to pull bechari’s hair :D

    Nadia I am glad that finally you have become a good cook. Do you remember I used to talk alot about cooking and baking, and you always replied that I am not intrested in cooking. But I guess now you realize that cooking and baking is so much fun. I love cooking and baking, if you need any of my recipes you are most wellcome. I am sure Masood would love hyderabadi recipes.

    LOL … I am definitely interested, but I don’t enjoy it too much. If not for Masood’s encouragement, I would’ve never explored baking at all! Sometimes it’s fun, but only before the part where you need to clean up the dishes/counter/oven/etc :D

    I will definitely run to you when I need a recipe! Thank you so much. Masood is crazy about Hyderabadi recipes :D
