luft (white raddish) or you can use parsnip

black pepper

cinnamon

method

chop the onion small add chicken pieces and place in a pot with a little oil and cook for a few mins then add spices and chickpeas

and place lid on leave fora few mins then add some water

halve way through add veg  in the meantime prepare the rishta , this can be steamed the same way as cous cous







it`s just cauliflower with a bachemal sauce and cheese of your choice , i can only really get cheddar here , their are other but i`m not a cheese person so i don`t bother

and if my dh was here i would put some garlic in the bachemal as that is the only way my dh will eat cauliflower

    Assalamo alaikum,

    Do you make the actual rishta yourself, or do you buy it ready? I'd love to try making it, do you have a method?

    Assalaamu alaikum

    Umm Salam, it is the same method as making spaghetti. I made it with a Libyan sister once - just flour and water and thn it goes through the pasta machine until it's nice and thin and we dried it on the backs of chairs, lol!

    Umm Imran, made it today, yay!

La Koka (algerian pizza)

we are one for pizza and this ramdan you can believe that alot of pizza was made  and eaten .... but last year i remember my dh coming home and saying i will teach you a new one ...so i said go ahead masha`allah it was delicious ....the amazing thing was their is no cheese on this pizza ...(what i hear you say).... yes no cheese so basically  i use the same pizza dough as here then i spread just tomato puree and not the sauce i usually use all over the dough ... then i cut fresh tomatoes in circles and for my dh we take the seeds out as he believes their not good for the stomach ...and i place these around the dough and into the middle .... now what make this pizza it i place sardines that have been salted and the salt remains on it  this i open and take the bones out and tear it  into little pieces and place aound the pizza when finished place in oven till dough is cooked then take out and brush some oil normal oil over the top and cut and eat ... believe you...

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
