ReplyDeletejazak`allah khair .... it was very tasty kate .... even my son who kept saying he didnt like it ate it
Assalamo alaikum,
ReplyDeleteYes i've tried this before except with anchovies. When the sister produced a no-cheese pizza I must admit I was a sceptic but surprisingly it was delicious!
thats what i thought when dh was showing me but masha`allah it is good
ReplyDeleteI love anything with tomatoes and bread and this dish with the addition of the sardines is perfect and just right for this weather.
ReplyDeletei only ever made it in ramadan but masha`allah this year i intend to make it alot more
ReplyDeleteAssalaamu alaikum
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of Koka until this summer when we were in DZ but what my s-i-l produced is completely different so now I am confused! She made a puff pastry, made one layer in the tray, added a filling of peppers, onions and tomatoes (similar to the filling for m'hadjeb) and then another layer of the puff pastry and baked and cut into squares. Are these both Koka?
This looks delicious and I shall try it for my beloved :). The other variations look just as tasty and I do have a thing for anchovies so shall try that one too. Thank you so much for popping in and commenting on my final post, it meant a lot to me. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteyou know nicola know algeria the one word can mean so many dishes .... i will have to ask my dh about the names as of last year that was the first time i had heard or seen it
ReplyDeleteawww thank you dolly for dropping in and looking around i really enjoyed your blog .... your profile says your in kildare ... i`ve been their many times ... i myself am form athlone
Hiya, I live in Cork City (though I am from London). I came over here, following a dream of one day living in Ireland :) a country I love. I wondered where you were from. I have a question. You ladies always mention DZ can I ask what this means? I could ask Himself, but I like to keep these conversations in the kitchen amongst the women. Like his stories are all from an Algerian born man, and I find a woman's point of view quite different. Does that make sense to you.
ReplyDeleteof course dolly that makes alot of sense..... well you know DZ is a short term for algeria or more so for the arabic word for algeria (which i have no idea how to spell) ..... it`s very true about the mens side of story toward the woman i love to listen to the woman when telling stories especially about when they were younger ... being irish myself it`s amazing how much we are alike
ReplyDeleteOh is that what it means!!! Oh I do love stories, and can just picture how fascinating it must be to listen to their stories. I believe that we are all more alike than the media and politicians make out, so I can imagine that it must feel really lovely and comforting to feel that way when you live in a country so far from your own (I know this feeling well!). God Bless you girl
ReplyDeleteaww thank you so much dolly i have really enjoyed this chat
