Sara Malik
Home cook & recipe editor
Karachi-based home cook documenting everyday Pakistani dinners, leftovers, and weeknight shortcuts.
Sara has cooked for a busy household for over a decade — the kind of kitchen where dinner has to work with whatever is left in the fridge, not a perfect grocery list.
She edits recipes for Aaj Kya Pakayein with a simple rule: every step should make sense while you are standing at the stove. Spices, timings, and swaps are tested for home pans, not restaurant kitchens.
When she is not writing Recipe of the Day posts, she is usually batching keema, stretching leftover roti, or arguing that raita fixes almost everything.
