Even though tea is something we Pakistanis are super duper obsessed with, no matter what time of the day it is. But whenever you hear someone say Shaam ki chaye. Our brain can’t resist the urge to meander around pakoray, kachoriyan, aloo bharal samosay, and of course, jalebiyan. Regardless of how absolutely scrumptious they may taste next to every sip of your evening tea. You definitely know how obstructive they can be to your weight reduction objectives. Harming your glucose and cholesterol levels too in the way. Nonetheless, that doesn’t mean you influence your Shaam ki chaye to time a cantankerous undertaking.
