Assalamu Alaikum, the most favorite dish in the rain is Basni Paratha, which will remind you of your soil even when you are sitting abroad.
Ingredients required for Basni Paratha.
 Try to get the gram flour freshly milled, half a kilo of wheat flour, which we use for daily bread, half a kilo, one teaspoon of coriander powder, chopped coriander, one teaspoon of chopped chilli powder, one teaspoon of cumin powder, grind it slightly, half a teaspoon of celery, half a teaspoon of salt, two to three tablespoons of ghee, mix all these ingredients and knead with water. After kneading, cover it with a vessel to rest for half an hour. We will prepare its ingredients, in which we will prepare red garlic chutney, fried green chillies and sweet tamarind chutney. For this, we will first peel eight to 10 garlic cloves, add 10 to 12 red chillies to it, grind it to make a fine chutney, and fry it in a frying pan with four tablespoons of oil. When it is fried, then put it on the stove. Now let's make the tamarind sweet sauce. For the tamarind sweet sauce, first we will soak the tamarind in lukewarm water. If you want, you can soak the tamarind in lukewarm water. What was supposed to take 15 to 20 minutes will be done in ten minutes. Then we will throw away its seeds and pour a glass of water in its lap and put it on the stove. In it, we will add a pinch of cumin, half a teaspoon of ground chili, half a teaspoon of chopped cumin seeds and three to four pinches of salt and let it cook. After ten minutes, we will add half a cup of sugar. If you want, you can also add jaggery. Then we will cook it for another ten minutes. When it is cooked, we will remove it from the stove and let it cool. Now we will fry the green chillies. First, take eight to ten chillies which are thick, wash them and cut them in half and keep them aside. Now add one teaspoon of cumin seeds, one teaspoon of coriander seeds, one teaspoon of chaat masala and Mix half a teaspoon of salt and grind it finely in a mixer. Now take out this powder and add the juice of two lemons to it to make a paste and fill it with the chillies. Now fry the chillies in hot oil, cover it and cook on a medium flame. When the chillies become crispy, turn off the stove and remove it. Now make medium-sized balls of the dough that we kept on the rest for half an hour. Now roll it, apply ghee inside, make a roll and roll it again and make parathas. Fry the parathas in ghee on a medium flame until they turn golden brown. After they are lightly fried, take them out and serve in a serving dish. Serve with fried green chillies and sweet tamarind chutney. Basni parathas are ready. And yes, don't forget to add sweet curd, it adds more flavor to this dish.

Introduction

Sheer Khurma is a classic and traditional Pakistani dessert, especially prepared on Eid. This rich and creamy dish is made with milk, vermicelli (seviyan), dates, and a mix of dry fruits. It has a delicious aroma of cardamom and kewra, making it a festive favorite in every home.

Recipe Details

Servings: 6–8 people

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 25–30 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

For Milk Base

1.5 litre full cream milk (full fat recommended)

¾ cup sugar (adjust to taste)

½ teaspoon cardamom powder

½ teaspoon kewra water (optional)

Few strands saffron (optional

For Vermicelli & Dry Fruits

50–60 grams thin vermicelli (seviyan), crushed

2–3 tablespoons desi ghee

8–10 dry dates (soaked and chopped)

¼ cup almonds (sliced)

¼ cup pistachios (sliced)

¼ cup cashews (sliced)

2 tablespoons raisins (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare Dry Fruits

Soak dry dates in water for about 30 minutes, then chop them. Slice almonds, pistachios, and cashews.

Tip: Soaking the dry fruits makes them softer and enhances the taste.

2. Roast in Ghee

Heat 2 tablespoons ghee in a heavy-bottom pot on medium flame.

Add almonds, pistachios, cashews, and raisins. Roast for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.

In the same ghee, add vermicelli and roast until light golden brown (about 2–3 minutes), stirring continuously.

Tip: Do not over-brown the vermicelli or it may taste bitter.

3. Cook with Milk

Add 1.5 litre milk and bring it to a boil on high flame.

Once it boils, reduce the heat and cook for 10–12 minutes until vermicelli softens.

Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Add cardamom powder, saffron (if using), and chopped dates.

4. Add Sugar & Flavor

Add sugar (start with ½ cup and adjust to taste).

If the mixture becomes too thick, add a little more milk or evaporated milk.

5. Final Touch & Serving

Add back the roasted dry fruits (save some for garnish).

Turn off the flame and let it cool.

Tips for Perfect Sheer Khurma

Variations

Add more dates for extra sweetness.

Add khoya (mawa) for a richer taste.

Use condensed milk for a creamier texture.

“Crispy Chicken Broast Recipe | KFC Style Fried Chicken at Home

 "Make authentic KFC-style Crispy Chicken Broast at home! Golden, extra crunchy outside with juicy tender chicken inside. Easy Pakistani broast recipe with step-by-step guide, tips & Karachi-style spices. Better than restaurant takeaway!"

This is a delicious crispy chicken breast recipe that will give you the same taste as KFC — golden, extra crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with that perfect spicy flavor in the Pakistani/Karachi breast spot (often called "breast" locally). This homemade version is packed with simple ingredients and the classic double coating for maximum crispiness and deliciousness.

Ingredients (Serves 4-5)

For Marination:

Chicken pieces with skin (1 kg / about 2.2 lbs) — preferably drumsticks, thighs, wings, or breast cut into broast-style pieces

Vinegar or white vinegar — ¼ to ½ cup (or lemon juice)

Salt — 1–1½ tsp (adjust to taste)

Red chili powder — 1 tsp to 1 tbsp (for heat)

Ginger-garlic paste — 1–2 tsp (optional but adds great flavor)

Optional extras for more Pakistani-style taste: 1 tsp tikka masala, ½ tsp black pepper, or a pinch of garam masala

For Coating (the secret to extra crisp!):

All-purpose flour (maida) — 2–3 cups

Cornstarch (optional but recommended for extra crunch) — ½ cup

Salt — ½–1 tsp

Red chili powder — ½–1 tsp

Black pepper powder — ½ tsp

Optional spices: ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp

 white pepper, ½ tsp paprika, pinch of

 baking powder (for lightness), or dry

 parsley/herbs

For Wet Dip:

1–2 eggs (beaten) OR chilled water/ice-cold water (many use the water dip method for KFC crunch)

Optional: ½ cup buttermilk, yogurt, or milk for soaking

For Frying:

Oil — for deep frying (vegetable/canola oil works best)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Marinate the chicken
Wash and pat dry the chicken pieces. In a large bowl, mix vinegar, salt, red chili powder, ginger-garlic paste (and any optional spices). Rub this all over the chicken. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 1–2 hours (best: 4–6 hours or overnight for juicier results). The vinegar tenderizes and adds that signature tang.

Prepare the coating

In a large bowl or tray, mix all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, red chili powder, black pepper, and any extra spices. This is your dry mix — taste and adjust seasoning.

Set up the dipping station


Bowl 1: Beaten eggs or a simple chilled water slurry (some add a bit of the dry mix to make a thin batter).

Bowl 2: The seasoned flour mix.

Coat for maximum crispiness (double-dip method — key to KFC texture!)


Take a marinated chicken piece, shake off excess marinade.

Dredge in dry flour mix (press firmly so it sticks).

Dip quickly into egg/water.

Dredge again in dry flour mix (press hard — this creates flaky, crunchy layers).

Repeat for all pieces. Let coated pieces rest 10–15 minutes (helps coating stick).

Fry the chicken


Heat oil in a deep pot/karahi to 165–175°C (330–350°F). Test by dropping a bit of flour — it should sizzle immediately but not burn.
Fry in batches (don't overcrowd) for 10–15 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F).
Drain on paper towels or a wire rack.

Serve hot

Pair with fries, garlic sauce, raita, or ketchup. Squeeze lemon on top for extra zing!

Tips for Perfect Golden Crispy Broast


Skin-on chicken = crispier results.
Ice-cold water/egg dip + double coating = that signature KFC crunch.
Maintain oil temperature — too low = soggy; too high = burnt outside, raw inside.
For even more flavor, add MSG (optional) or experiment with 11 herbs & spices style (thyme, basil, oregano, celery salt, etc.), but the simple Pakistani version above is super tasty and close to local broast shops.
Enjoy your homemade KFC-style crispy golden chicken broast — better than takeaway! 🍗✨ Let me know how it turns out!k
