Chicken Puff

Though I am into more fresh foods, but during Ramadan  frozen food can come as handy. Time management is  most important during this period as most of the time is spent on ibadat.

A week before Ramadan, I start stocking up the frozen items like shami kebabs, seek kebab, shashlik, spring rolls, chilly kebabs, puffs and so on. Just defrost it for 10 minutes & you are ready to go.

Lesser the time in kitchen the more time for praying. Well isn't it all this month is about. Giving more emphasis on deen rather than daily routine and worldly affairs, praying for forgiveness , taking his blessing to improve our life &  follow the life our prophet (PHUH).
