Hi i am expecting my 3rd child. I also work and will be taking little off. When my 2nd child was baby i used to cook on sunday for next 3 or 4 days. I want to start doing again.
I need ideas for what to cook. I used to cook mostly meat dishes. My son is roti salan kid. He wont eat anything else.
Also if i make seek kebab/chapal kabab, they dry alot in few days and hubby doesnt like.
Thanks everyone

I used to make a lot of shaami kebabs when my mom was still alive, you can layer in wax paper and freeze like 50 to 60 easily. I started cooking a whole batch of bhuna salan then i freeze in portions and sometimes add different veggies, palak or make biryani. My seekh kebab don't dry. I add a generous amount of onions blended with dahi, ginger, and garlic. I cook chicken in mass quantities also and divide and make biryanni and salan and other dishes. Kids eat western so I cook that separately for them.
Re: What dishes to cook for the week
@Bobby1 can you share a good recipe for shami kabobs ?
last time (and first time) I made it.. the daal was still very visible, and the taste seemed off for some reason .. I dont know what I did wrong .. and tasting the masala was tricky for me cuz everything was boiled, I dont know.. please share step by step instructions
Re: What dishes to cook for the week
I am a meatatarian so I have more focus on meat, I use meat cubes rather than qeema. Boil the meat with quartered onions, garlic cloves, ginger and laal sabut mirch and ofcourse salt. Once the meat is done more than half way thru add the daal, I dont put a lot of daal most people recommend half cup for 1kg. Water should almost evaporate and meat should be really flakey. I love to blend in the green masalas at this point. Add bhunna cumin powder generously at this point. You can also adjust massala at this point add crushed peppers or salt. If the mixture us a bit too soft add some bhunna besan to stiffen it. Alternatively if you are having a hard time with daal and meat cooking in one pot u can boil daal separately and add to meat. I don't have an issue with daal staying sabut. Also you can blend daal separately and mmeat separately aand mix and mead. My taste used to be off as I used to add too little zeera powder.
I love making chicken shami also and I make salmon also but for salmon I use boiled potatoes.
