the pending homework. At last afternoon I went to the kitchen, taken all the ingredients for making the Iftar.  I washed the Basmati Rice and given to full boiled and drained the water on it, so my rice is ready now. Ow! earlier I marinated the Wings with ginger paste and salt to taste, you can add some vinegar or lemon juice and soy sauce to marinate them, that depends on your taste. I just kept it 3 or 4 hours for marinate in the refrigerator.  This is so easy, isn't it?   
 I just taken some common ingredients for the fried rice what I found ready in home are as follows:-
a. 300 Gram Basmoti Rice.

c. 3 piece of Garlic.

g. 3 table spoon butter oil.
h. Salt to taste.














Its cooking time, first I take a Pan and pouring butter oil when it hot, then added the onions, garlic and ginger paste and half a table spoon of salt. I just wait one minute and given the egg on it and made sure to scrambling the eggs with the ingredients. Finally I pour the rice on it and mixing well.

Its done and later I garnished the Iftar. So its not a lengthy process at all its simple and easy if you are use to on it, have fun.
