I enjoyed the holy month of Ramadhan thoroughly. Working only 6 hours a day and using the afternoons for small naps and spending time with my little one were something I really miss now. And not to forget the new delicacies that we tried almost everyday for our Iftars.
When I look back at the month, I am quite pleased at the number of comfort foods I tried and that too with common ingredients available at home. Planning the menu to include no-fuss recipes for a phenomenal Iftar treat, plating the food, choosing the right combinations and presenting it, basking in the glory of their admiration was something I had been obsessed with.
From refreshing drinks to fast-to-fix fries & salads we were happy to indulge our appetite to a glorious excess. Hugging onto the coolness of the glass after witnessing sweltering heat throughout the day was the most ideal way to chill out and cool down our bodies. A real refreshing and an amazing experience.
Invariably some of my experiments were a good success and very few did not work out, but yes - gathering this experience has been a truly delightful one and which is motivation enough to keep me going.
I have a downright irresistible fancy appetizer with me which can be snacked on a fun-evening.It’s super healthy minus all the usual hassle of baking. I am talking about Rolls here which can be turned easily in a shallow frying pan and do not take long to get browned. They taste simply moreish and you can savor every bite pretending to be on some exotic location.
Now let us hit the recipe for them.
