What’s your favorite cooking show on masala tv or art zauq? Try any good recipes from tv? Please do share!
Re: what's your favorite cooking show?
i love masala mornings and dawat from masala channel and i sometimes watch gher ki daal murghi barabar
aryzauq-i like zauq zindagi
yes i have tried so many recipes all are written in my diary
I like masala mornings. I uses to just watch masala channel until we started getting humtv. That has been such a distraction from watching the cookin channels.
I used to really like rida aftabs recipes when she was on industv. I will watch Sara Riaz and I like the the program with Tahira Mateen.
Problem with me is I never wrote down recipes...just watched for ideas and inspiration. I lost a lot of recipes hat way. Way back I did like some of farrah Jahenzebs recipes on geo.

Problem is I get very frustrated when I follow recipe and the taste is not good. I really loved Samina Jaleel's daily cooking show. Lots of great recipes. Too bad I didn't write down most of them. She had awesome recipes during Ramadan. I would try ten every day for Iftar.

What does pakao mean? She and her daughter are somewhat unbearable to watch. I am not too fond of their personalities, although I have heard from others their recipes ten out fairly. I watched about 3 -4 yrs back. Haven't watched her recently.
Re: what's your favorite cooking show?
rahat is the most annoying tv personality along with the likes of sahir lodhi.
