Re: whats the one thing i could make in pakistan thayt they dont get /cant get there?
Hi Nadz,
I was going to suggest pancakes as well. What I've noticed is that often times older desis are very fixed about tastes......and prefer food that they're used to eating on a regular basis. So while you experiment with recipes that they're not familiar with.........don't underestimate the impact of wowing them with well-cooked desi recipes that have your own twist to them. For example.......there are sooooooooooooooooooo many desi chicken recipes that your in-laws have probably never tried. Chicken recipes that vary from the usual chicken korma aur chicken karahi. You can look them up on the internet.......try making them at home.....get comfortable with them......and then cook them for your in-laws.
You can also try to find interesting desi kabab/cholay/beef/egg/vegetable recipes.
If you want to bring in a bit of British culture to your in-laws.......how about some british puddings or pastries or cakes? You can even experiment with soups, salads, and appetizers. You can even wow them with simple recipes like a smoothie for breakfast.
