Chicken Boti
Guess what you can marinate this chicken boti ahead, and you just need a few homemade spices. Defrost and skewer it early in the day and just pan-fry before iftar. Bonus tip, you can even bake it. This is a family recipe chicken egg roll recipe that has Indo-Chinese vegetables and chicken filling. It tastes so delicious and is loved by kids. What’s more this chicken boti can make a great filling for tikka sandwich or load it on tikka pizza. I’m already drooling. And with those make-ahead chutneys and raita in your freezer, this is just the perfect dinner to serve with frozen or fresh paratha or chapati.
Fried Chicken Recipes
Fried chicken is another great and sinfully delightful snack on an iftar dinner menu. Some of these can be baked or air-fried too.
Chicken Haleem
Chicken haleem can be great if you wish to avoid red meat for any reason. This recipe shares the Haleem masala recipe and all tips from scratch for a Dhaba style delicious and sticky haleem. But dig through it and you’ll find cashew instead of flour and yogurt instead of milk. Not to mention coconut milk and the layer of fried eggs on top. This pie is a lavish treat. While all other snacks in the post are enjoyed by kids and occasionally and guilt fully in small servings by us too. You do not feel lethargic with light drinks and keep you hydrated too. Because these drinks are shakes and heavy you do not end up consuming too much sugar that comes in commercial drinks and sharbat. Dates and granola are best for iftar. You can also have 1-2 servings of a healthy high-fiber biscuit to keep you full till dinner. Early dinner and light iftar are the best ways to keep you healthy in Ramadan.
Date Balls
These gooey, chewy coconut date balls are healthy snacks that boost energy levels at their best. And it tastes so delicious that even the kids cannot resist these bite-sized snacks. You need just 5 ingredients and less than 30 minutes to make it and they can last for 2 weeks in fridge or a acouple of days outside as well. More coming soon!
