Growing up in a Foodie Family

Food is undoubtedly an essential part of the culture in Pakistan. From Karachi to Khyber, the conversations change from nihari to chapli kebabs, but they still revolve around food. I won’t be exaggerating if I say that Ammi’s side of the family is a big-time foodie family. Their lives revolve around food and not just food, really really good food. We have been blessed with a series of great chefs like my Nani, my Nani’s sister, my Khala, my Mamis, and of course, Ammi. They have set the bar so high and spoiled the family so much, that I find it hard to cook for them and get their nod of approval.
