A sneak peak into my upcoming Eid Menu

Today I'm sharing my menu for this Eid and the various combinations that you can opt for. On Eid day we don't go for any specific breakfast. As and when guest comes in, we just keep having all the stuffs that I have mentioned under serving guest, and because of this we take our lunch early at around 11 itself. I'll be so busy after coming from Eid prayers as I have to do it all alone. There are some recipes that can be prepared in advance, ie. a day before to make our task easy and some has to be prepared on the day itself, I've mentioned the same against each item. Also to make my work easier, I go for all the readymade masalas and mixes.

Serving guest when they visit us:
1. Sheer Khurma - A day in advance
2. Shahi Tukda - A day in advance
3. Rasmalai - A day in advance
4. Corn Samosa - Shop bought, frozen, I've to just fry it before serving
