Subhan`allah dont you just love when you come across something that reminds  you of your childhood and they way your family would sit and get together

not like these day where their is so much going on that your never sure weither it will happen form day to day .... well masha`allah i had one of those day yesterday

my lovely dad sent over some baked beans for us as even tho i`m told they are sold here but i havent seen them myself ...... so i decided to do an old fav of our family ..... very simple and just hits the spot ... i bet your wondering what it is ...well let me tell you

BEANS ON TOAST WITH A FRIED EGG






and to top it off some brown sauce over it ... well you can imagine what a lovely lunch we had and even dh ate it which is brilliant for me as he`s not one for ready made beans from a jar

so hopefully we will be doing this again one day in the future

French Laof

Asalam wa alikum So as you know i`m not really one for baking ... but when a good recipe comes my way i must tell you about it I have had this recipe for a while and never got around to trying it so as i was making my muffin bread i thought let me try this one ... Its a french loaf and so simple and easy 2 cups of water (warm) 2 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp of yeast instant 2 tbsp of salt ... i felt it was a bit too much so i reduced it to 1 2 tbsp of oil (veg) 5 cups of flour mix well and knead dough then allow to rise punch back the dough then place on a tray allow to rise again and place in a hot oven it takes about 20 mins or so and masha`allah what a lovely bread we toasted it and had butter and jam for breakfeast enjoy and let me know how it works out

Pocasi/ split green pea soup

Asalamu alikum Well it sure has been a long time since i posted so i thought let me share this Pocasi recipe with you while i remember This soup is made from split green peas first i wash the peas and then add them to my pot (i used a pressure cooker) i added onion ... garlic..... i diced up carrots ...courgettes...and potato into  really small bits and added to the pot i also added black pepper....salt ...cumin...and razel hanut.... fill with water and placed lid on  and allowed to cook about 30 to 40 mins in total ... then let the pressure out and open then  stir.... if you need more water add and allow to cook towards the end add some tomato puree and allow to thicken up a little .... when i make this i do not use oil and i should say that this type of soup will continue to thicken and even the next day you will need to add more water to thin out ... but masha`allah is a really nice soup
