Re: Eid Menu!
For visitors I'm thinking haleem, macaroni and trifle. And will fry something like kababs samosas or nuggets depending on who shows up and if there are kids. Would love to hear more ideas of stuff that can be prepared in advance
Re: Eid Menu!
breakfast: sheerkhurma
snack after the eid prayer: samosa chaat and gulab jamans
lunch: yakhni pulao, chicken roast, chicken salan, palak koftay, raita, ras malai and lemon cheese cake or Devil's food cake.
dinner: out
Re: Eid Menu!
Abroad eid is no eid. Husbands are usually at work. In Pakistan one has lots to plan and as its only a year for me being abroad, I would be missing Pakistan. Visiting is however common depending upon the holiday, no idea what to be done still have to plan. I dont want eid to come so soon, This blessed month I want to be lingered as much as it can Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

haleem is a good option instead of biryani or any rice dish coz u can heat it again n again easily....
thanx for replying raina:)

Ask your husband to take a day off. Nothing is more important for us Muslims than Ramadan & EID :)
In sha Allah my husband will be off from work!! (and hey it's Sunday anyway so shud be good for most of us this year)
We'll go for Eid Namaz in morning then home and breakfast/brunch with family. Rest dunno yet, we'll plan out soon In sha Allah infact I'll get ideas for menu :) thanks for a great thread!
Re: Eid Menu!
Thanks. LOVE that thread! 
Re: Eid Menu!
Our khaandan decided to do something a little different this Eid..we’re going to cater from a halal Thai restaraunt that we all love 
Each family is contributing $50…it will be nice not to have to rush about and worry about cooking that day!
Re: Eid Menu!
^ hands down. cooking should be banned on the eid day. just so ruins everything for those who have to cook and serve.
