Description: With 127 delicious recipes this Urdu cook book is a must have for anybody who is fond of eating good food. The recipes are divided into sections so you don't have to look through the whole book to find what you need. The book also has an excellent little glossary at the end so you know exactly what you need to ask for when you go to the grocery store to get that that little bit of 'besan'.
Review:
My mother in-law bought me the "Knorr Key Zaiquay" book shortly after she learned that I shall be leaving for the states. I think she was a little worried that her son wouldn't eat well because she knew that I didnt know how to cook.

Our first year abroad I used only this cookbook and a few recipes my mom had given me. I can't tell you how exciting it was to sit down, read through a section of the book, write a grocery list for the items I would need, write out a dinner menu for the whole week and then call my friends to tell them what I was fixing on each night and ask them what sounded good to them so they could join us for dinner. I did this for several months until my evenings were filled with other activities. (Eating was definitely an activity when it came to using this book.) I have enjoyed every recipe I have used from this book. And they're so easy!! . Here are a few of my recommendations (I don't have page numbers in front of me): Almond Potato Kebab, Arabian Samosa; Almond Mayonnaise slice; Mallaey Kofta Curry; Sindhi Biryani; Chicken of Heaven; Achar Gosht;Golden Pulao and so many moreMy only problem with making these recipes was that the writer uses high caloried stuff like nuts, cheese and Mayonnaise (which is my favorite food too) so I gained a lot of weight that year. I do love the fact that she doesn't suggest using lowfat or non-fat foods to make the recipes but use caution. This is a "must have" cookbook if you love eating really good food!!
