How to use MyPakwan recipesمائی پکوان کی ترکیبیں کیسے استعمال کریں

Every recipe has the same layout: a short story, the ingredients, numbered steps, tips, variations and answers to common questions. English is on the left and Urdu on the right, so the whole family can cook from the same page.

Use the people adjuster at the top of the ingredients to cook for 2 or for 20; every amount changes for you, in metric or US cups. If you are short of time, start with the 15-minute or 30-minute pages, and for a dawat, use the Dawat Quantity Calculator to plan how much to make.

ہر ترکیب کا ایک ہی انداز ہے: مختصر کہانی، اجزا، نمبر والے قدم، مشورے، دوسرے انداز اور عام سوالوں کے جواب۔ انگریزی بائیں طرف اور اردو دائیں طرف ہے، تاکہ پورا گھر ایک ہی صفحے سے پکا سکے۔

اجزا کے اوپر افراد والا بٹن استعمال کریں اور دو یا بیس لوگوں کے لیے پکائیں؛ ہر مقدار خود بدل جاتی ہے، میٹرک یا امریکی کپ میں۔ وقت کم ہو تو پندرہ منٹ یا تیس منٹ والے صفحوں سے شروع کریں، اور دعوت کے لیے دعوت کوانٹیٹی کیلکولیٹر سے اندازہ لگائیں کہ کتنا بنانا ہے۔
