Ammi’s Mixed Sabzi (Mom’s Mixed Vegetables)

January 26, 2019Aroosa

Confession time: although most of the Pakistani dishes that I’ve posted on here involve meat, I have to admit I’m not a “meat person”. Truthfully, I’ve never been a “meat person” (much to hubby’s dismay). I don’t crave it like… Continue Reading →

Shami Kebabs

January 6, 2019Aroosa

Hokkaido Milk Buns

January 14, 2018Aroosa

Citrus Sorbet

August 19, 2017Aroosa

It has been a long and incredibly HOT summer here, friends.  I’m aware that this isn’t a particular popular notion to admit, but I have absolutely no shame in sharing that I don’t care much (read: at all) for summer.… Continue Reading →

Kheer (Pakistani Rice Pudding)

July 12, 2015Aroosa
