[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear you, OP. I don't know WHY MIL insists on cooking a dish that's ethnic for my family when we can do it so much better. Don't try to impress us. Because they want your approval. I know this from experience. I usually have a couple of responses: There are alot of Chinese/Indian restaurants around, we don't need to cook these food at home. Or my parents don't really like this/that food (which is whatever she's cooking). I complain to my mom about MIL and of course from my mom's point of view is, be nice and respectful. Let MIL do what she wants. So, I will listen to my mom's advice. [/quote] Can you flip it into a compliment: "Oh MIL we eat aloo matar and saag ALL THE TIME. What my parents would REALLY love is some of your ___ since they don't normally get to eat that!" [/quote]
