Seasonal Favorites!

So every household has seasonal favorites…or dishes you only cook in cold weather.

What are yours?

For us in the winter:

Chicken pot pie
Khaosay
Payye
Khash Khaash

And during rainy weather:

Pakoray
Parathay
Pakola is a must

Summer: Bar B Q !!!!!! We are fanatical about grilling out in our family!!!

Winter: haleem...the ultimate comfort food... Grilled cheese sandwiches w/tomato basil soup is a fav lunch when it's cold out!

Rainy Weather: pakoras are a must!!

Re: Seasonal Favorites!

I don't eat desi food much but when i am in mood i make really good keema rolls. Very good mix veges with potato soup. Make avacado chicken sandwich. I actually do not have any weather preference food but i wouldn't mind having pakorays once in a while. Also Only if i knew how to make them good eh!. My sister tells me all the time but i somehow i just can't get it right.
