Re: House warming
i love parties . well if you are going to cook your self give your self a week to prepare, decide on the menu.
- chicken biryani,
- veal haleem
- seekh kabab
- raita
- pineapple and cucmber salad
- gajar ka halwa.
- naan so what you could do is prepare the biryani masala with chicken and freeze, haleem ko bhi make it ahead of time and freeze it, same with the gajar ka halwa. jo seekh kabab hain you could half bake them or half fry them and frreze them as well. this will cut all your kitchen work considerably, plus also all the cooking odors by more than half. have the house cleaned up and dusted oneday ahead, make sure your wash rooms are sparkling clean. on the day of party have all food thawed and ready as per needed , get ready yourself. if you could have friend over that day to help you out. get some fresh flowers and arrange them in your fave vase. have scented candles lit at the entrance, dining area and also tea lites in the kitchen. if you have a nice large pretty bowl, fill it with water and float some tealites into it. you could have lites dimmed a little in this area to bahut dramatic effect hoga. on one table lay out the plates, cutlery, napkins, center mein you could have a basket of fresh colourful fruits. also on the same table put your achar ,chutneys , salad and raita. i normally put my tea cups here as well for after dinner. on the main table buffet style mein put the main course dishes, on a smaller table , you could make some punch or juice, glasses and pops. . you could have a theme party as well. like tell your friends to come prepared with three or four jokes each, or, some poetry, or maybe have some singing. you could even have everyone come in only saris, or only a specific color. and you could have a vote for the best dressed couple to win a prize. dont forget to take pictures and let us be part of the party.
