A huge advocate of home-cooking, prolific cookbook author Marina Mustafa also believes in whipping up meals at home during Ramadan, a practice she and her family have adhered to for years.

“I’ve always cooked at home during Ramadan because my children enjoy it – they plan the menu every year too. And on top of cooking being an ongoing learning affair, it forces the family to be involved in the cooking process, so that is the time to bond, ” says Marina, who has authored over 12 cookbooks, including titles like Memorable Recipes for Malay Occasions and Hari Raya Classics.
