shawarma
1 kilo chicken breast filet, sliced in to thin squares.
(for that I sliced each filet in half, to half thickness. Then cut of broad strips and sliced those to quite thin squares)
Spices:
1 tbls ginger garlic mixed
1 level tsp each of curry powder, dhania powder, aamchoor, black pepper powder
1/2 tsp of white pepper powder and onion powder each
1/2 tsp red chili flakes - optional
Do this:
1- heat olive oil in a wok or large pan, toss in the chicken and fry
2- once the chicken starts turning colour, squeeze over the lemon and mix. Keep frying on medium low
3- when almost all water has evaporated, add the spices and fry well
4- when the oil separates, remove from heat and set aside
5- the dough should be ready by now. Make small golf balls and set aside
6- mix the homous, yoghurt, mayo, minced garlic, some salt and 1 tbls olive oil. Taste, the sauce should taste light, not heavy
7-roll out the dough balls thinly - but not too thin. Place it on a hot girdle, without any oil or fat
8- cook them till the puff up slightly, from one side. Flip over, let cook till puffy again or it looks done to u. Put them in a cloth towel and keep
infront of u
9- assemble all things in front of u - the onion rings, the chopped pickles, chopped cucumber, homous mix, french fries, bread and chicken
10- place a sheet of sandwich paper on a cutting board or table top
11- put one flatbread on the sheet. Spread with homous. Place the meat, french fries, onion rings and pickles on one another
12- roll the bread, and roll the sheet around it.
13- serve warm with a potato, pasta or green salad. Unfortunately, mine didn't make it to the camera.. so I cant show u the rolled version, but I
guess we can all roll a roll.. right? :)
1 chicken, small one for 2 people and large one for 4 people
2 bay leaves
2 cubes of maggie chicken bouillon mixed in with 2 tbls flour
1 diced onion
5 garlic cloves
6 cardamoms
5 cloves
2 cinnamon sticks
3 dried lemons
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
enough salt for the rice and full tsp pepper
1 piece ginger
1 teaspoon cardamom
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
4 hard-boiled eggs
pine nuts and almonds, roasted in butter, for flavor
2- In a stockpot add your onions and garlic on medium and let brown. Then add all of your spices. Stir in tomato sauce on med heat until sauce
thickens.Then add your chicken into the sauce. Saute it for a few minutes, on medium heat. Add double the amount of water u need for the
rice, and let it cook, covered. On high flame for the first 10 minutes, low thereafter, at least 35 minutes
3- now after your chicken has cooked for 35 minutes turn ur oven grill on. Take the chicken out, put it in dish and let it get crispy and brown
under the grill. It will look a bit dry, but its actually quite juicy, and will be softer still once its in the rice. But if the though worries u, just keep
it as it is, or fry it in a little oil, for the colour
4- add the rice to the hot broth, let it come to a boil and cook. 5 minutes before the rice would be down, add the boiled eggs and nuts. Make a
well in between, put the roasted chicken and cover slightly with the rice. Cover and let the rice cook to its end, another 5 minutes. Serve hot
and enjoy the typical Khabsa flavours :)
Bienenstich Torte
Dont ask me what it's called in English - dont know :) Honeybee Cake? na.. sounds silly, since there are only 3 tsp honey in it. I'm sure it has a
name.. let me know, someone..
1- the day before, or early morning, make the custard, as usual and add the butter to it. Cover and cool in fridge
2- warm milk in a small pan and melt the butter in it, set aside
3- mix in the instant yeast with the flour and pour in the warm milk and all the other ingredients. Using the dough hook or your hands, make
a soft dough. Smooth it out, cover and let it rise in a warm place
4- to make the topping, slowly heat the butter in a pan, add all other ingredients and bring to a boil. Add the almonds, mix and let it cool down
5- grease baking sheet, roll out the dough to fit and spread the topping on it. Leave to rise again, at least half an hour, an hour is better
6- bake in preheated oven, at about 200 C, for 15 minutes, or until the bottom is evenly browned and the topping is golden
7- let it cool down slightly, and slice horizontally, making two halves.
8- add the cream and sugar to the pudding, whip smooth and spread on lower base of cake. Place top part on it, press down slightly and let it
stand 10, 15 minutes, before you serve.
Tomato Capsicum Soup
You need:
2- chop the onions roughly, and put them in the pot along with the oil, stirring, to get them slightly golden. Add the garlic, chopped roughly,
the bay leaf and the tomatoes, halved and a quarter glass water
3- mix, turn and toss and cover on low heat for at least 10 minutes. Keep the heat low so it doesnt burn
4- meanwhile, remove the capsicum and peel off the skin. Should come off easily. Chop the capsicum, set aside
5- chk tomatoes. Their skin should be easily removable. Do that - pick it off with a tong. Thats why you should only halve them - otherwise
you'll hang around forever, finding all the pieces...
6- add the capsicum and let the whole mixture cook a while - around 15 minutes. The veggies will be soft and mushy
8- meanwhile, heat the butter in the pan and toss in the flour, mixing swiftly, to avoid any clumps and add the spices. Keep a glass of water at
hand, and pour in quickly, to form a thin soup. You can add more, if you wish but then the soup will be too thin
9- blend the tomato mix and pour that in the pot and let it boil up. Once it has, just switch off the stove and let it sit there for a few minutes
10 - serve with croissants or any bread of your choice...
Note: you can of course substitute the plain flour for some chicken broth cubes.. and add a carrot too, only that will mean longer cooking times.
I suggest you just try it as is first and then see what you like. The salt pepper is what I used, because I prefer to taste the flavour of the capsicum
and tomato. You can adjust according to your taste.
Chicken Shashlik... my way..
I'm sure there must be a way or two differently, to make this dish. I dont even know if its the real real one :) but it tastes a lot like the Bundu
Khan one in Lahore.. plus, I love it :) So u try it...
You need:
I have not written any quantities for the oil - in general I have used 2 tbls each time, almost.. the rest is as u would like it..
So, do this:
1- marinate the chicken in all the given spices, cover and set aside for at least an hour
2- after the hour is over, make seekhs of almost all the cubes adding paprika, onion and tomato, leaving just about a quarter cup of the cubes.
Brush with oil and let the skewers rest
3- heat oil in a pan and throw in the remaining veggies, adding all the spices for them. Fry for a few minutes and remove from heat. Fry the
remaining chicken cubes, and add them to the veggies
4- make the sauce, add to the chicken/veggie mixture. If you like, keep some leftover, to decorate the rice with.. I didnt, used it all in the rice..
5- grill the seekhs - or fry them, as u wish.I half fried and half grilled. That went quicker. Keep warm
6- heat some oil in a pan and throw in a little of the garlic. As soon as it browns, add some rice. Fry the rice in batches, each time browning
garlic and frying. Remove the rice and layer it in a broad dish which u can heat on the stove
7- make space in between all the rice and dip the sauce/chicken/veggie mix in. Place the skewers on top.
8- heat a piece of coal, place it on foil and put that on top of everything. Cover and set the whole pot to heat slowly. This will give ur shashlik
the aroma that is so enticing..
9- uncover, and enjoy! I grilled some tomatoes and onions to go.. choice is yours.
Some notes:
You can of course do it the traditional way.. make the skewers, fry just the veggies separately and make the sauce separate. Serve all three
separate. I dont like that.. makes the food cold. I reason, if I am going to eat it all together, why not mix it all in? Personal preference, I guess. So,
make and enjoy.
Fried Fish and Chicken Boti
.For the fish:
Marinate 1 and half kilo fish fillets in
4 tbls besan, mixed with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp ginger garlic paste, 1 tsp fish masala (recipe below) and 1 tbls white vinegar, 3 tbls
mustard oil. Mix it, marinate the fish for at least a day and fry in hot hot mustard oil and a tbls ghee...
**fish masala - dry roast a tsp each of fengureek, coriander seeds and white cumin, half a tsp of kalongi and ajwain. Grind them and 1/4 tsp
garlic powder together. Use a tsp or less, according to your taste for fish**
You need
3 mugs rice, soaked
5 green cardamons
1/2 zeera
1/2 tsp dry fengureek seeds
Salt to taste
Do this:
1-heat some oil in a pot, add the fengureek, cardamons and zeera to it and let it splutter
2- add the rice, salt and enough water for it to cook.. and cook as u would normal pilaw..
4- wash, clean and blanch fengureek leaves for 2 minutes. You want them to retain colour and smell
5- heat some oil in a pan and add the onions. Let them get golden in colour and add the yoghurt, spices and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes
6- add the paneer cubes and let it cook for a few minutes. You want a gravy like look..
7- add the meethi leaves and cover, letting it simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off heat and set aside
8- layer rice in another pot, adding half of the paneer meethi mix, sprinkling some almonds and half the chopped mint. Repeat, till all is used
up. Cover the pot with aluminum foil and put the lid on. Let it sit till it gathers steam.

4- fry the meat a bit and then toss in the diced tomatoes, mix and pour in the yoghurt and squeeze the lemon over it

6- meanwhile, clean out the chillies buy cutting off the head, and taking out the seeds with a spoon or blunt knife. Be careful not to cut the
chillies open at the side
7- the mince should be done by now... it will look a little wet, dont worry, thats just the yoghurt sauce and its supposed to look wet! - take out
around 3, 4 tblsp and mix the pomi seeds in it.
8- carefully fill the chillies with this mix, and stuff a tomato wedge in to the opening, as a 'stopper' :)
Today's Menu
Okay, Baj was saying the other day that she needs to make lasagne.. really tasty lasagne, that is :)
So this is my way of doing it. I don't like the very dry one, where u can see each layer - I mean, u need to eat it, right? Layers wont stay there
forever, right? Right :) So.. here goes..
Meat Sauce:
1 kilo mince - I used mutton mince
220 grms, or one can of tomato paste
1/2 can of crushed tomatoes, or 4 medium sized fresh ones, cubed
1 tsp each of ginger garlic paste
2 tbls of oregano
1 tsp each of salt and red chillies (less or more, as u prefer)
3/4 tsp curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
1 generous tsp of ground black pepper
olive oil
White Sauce:
1 liter milk
1 big tbls butter and flour each
1 tsp salt
3/4 tsp white pepper
Also:
Grated cheese, as much as you want
pack of cream
.. and of course lasagne sheets
1- heat some oil and fry the meat with the ginger garlic paste till the water dries and the meat looks nicely done
2- pour in the tomato puree, add the tomatoes, canned or fresh and spices and mix well
3- add the oregano and let it simmer on low heat till the sauce thickens and looks tasty :)
4- grease your baking dish and lay out the lasagne sheets. I used a rectangle and a round dish just so you can see that you don't have to have a
square one :) Though it makes for better pieces in that, for sure...
5- put the butter and flour in a non stick pan and mix on low heat, till it turns slightly golden. Not too dark mind!
6- keep stirring and pour in milk, slowly, to make at first a thick paste and work it gradually up to a sauce. Zara said it looked like well mixed
cerelac before I added more milk!
7- while its simmering, add white pepper powder and salt and let it thicken
8- pour the sauce in a jug, it'll make pouring easier. Its important to make the sauce after the meat sauce and after preparing the tins and after
everything else actually. That way it stays hot and helps to soften the lasagne sheets
9- spread some meat sauce on the lasagne sheets and top with white sauce
10- cover with more sheets and top with meat and white sauce, this time, spread the cream on top as well
11- complete the pile as high as you want and top generously with cheese and stick it in the hot oven for around 20 - 25 minutes, depending
on how hot your oven is
12 - check after 20 minutes, switch on the grill to brown from top and ...
.... serve with a little salad and my own homemade ice-tea :)
Okay - the ice tea is really easy.. Just squeeze out a lemon or two, depending on how much you like lemon :) make a cup of hot and sugary
black tea. Add the lemon juice to cold water, pour in the tea, adjust the sweet and chill. You can of course make your life easier, and just make
lemon flavoured Tang and add the tea :)
And since this is a menu, we also have cake on the agenda. Which is so very easy:
1 cup of sugar
1 cup of milk
2 cups flour
2 eggs
1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
cinnamon
extra sugar
butter
.. and of course apples :)
So all you have to do is sift flour with salt with baking powder and set aside.
Beat the eggs, add sugar, beat some more
Pour in the milk, beat more
Add the flour mix and fold in.. remember, never beat after adding flour and baking powder. The cake will resemble a log otherwise...
Pour into greased tin..
... and here's the 'feeling' part..
cover the cake with diced apples
sprinkle 'some' cinnamon powder and sugar
and blot all over with butter.
I think I used around 100 grms of butter. But don't ask me about the cinnamon and sugar. Just sprinkle away...
Bake it, and let it turn golden. Serve with cream.. yummy.. :)
Oh by the way, this is what I've done to my kitchen balcony window. Didn't like the curtain and didn't like the prying eyes either.. I think this
solution is a good one..
to coat:
melted butter
icing sugar
also:
a clean, big tea towel.
1- make the dough by mixing the salt with the flour and adding the other ingredients. The dough might be a bit sticky, in that case, dust with
flour to get a smooth dough
2- boil some water in a saucepan, pour it out, dry the pot and line with wax paper. Put the dough ball in and let stand, covered, for half an
hour
3 - heat the oven and set a tray with all the ingredients, carry it to a big table if you have one so that u can work in peace
4- beat the soft butter lightly and add in the sugar, egg, lemon juice, cheese, custard powder and cream
5- drain and cut the the apricots in small pieces. Add them, the almonds and raisins to the cream mixture. Stick the bowl in the fridge and
work on the dough
6- melt the butter. Spread out the tea towel on the table top and dust with flour. Put the dough on it and roll.. this is the tricky part. You need a
lot of attention and patience with it, because its supposed to be thin enough for you to be able to see the design of the towel beneath it
7- dont roll with the pin too much, rather use your hands sans nails! Brush generously with melted butter
8- if the dough has an uneven edge, which it probably will :) - then cut along the sides to get a nice rectangle. When its thin enough, spread
the cheese mix over it smoothly, leaving a margin. Take care not to flatten it.
9- fold in the sides, and roll as you would a cream-roll with the help of the tea towel. Do it slowly, otherwise you might as well make a cake of
the whole thing!
10- when you're folding, take care to brush the sides with melted butter in between. Shift the roll to a greased baking dish and brush with
butter. Stick it in the oven and let it bake to a crispy golden. Brush with butter again after around 10 mins of baking time
11- take it out, sprinkle with icing sugar and serve with vanilla sauce...
Vanilla Sauce:
- boil 400 ml milk
- mix 3 tbls cornflour with a little cold milk
- add sugar and vanilla sugar or essence to it
- pour it in to the milk and let it thicken
- chill before serving!
Morning :) Okay I havent worked out how to answer the post directly yet, so an answer to ur comment: for the chicken not to get soaked in oil
do the following:
- make sure u let the prepared fillets stand at least an hour before frying
- make sure the oil is HOT - check by holding a wooden spoon in the middle of the pan. If bubbles form around it, its the right temperature
- once the oil is hot, take care to keep the temp constant
- it should be blubbering constantly. If it stops doing that, its getting cold.
this should work.. :)
Experiment
Sometimes I land up with nothing special to cook and a few mismatched ingredients. Then I try and 'create' a dish and whenever the children
ask me whats for lunch I say, "experiment" :) They've learnt to trust that word because, thank the Lord, it has almost always turned out good.
Here's what I made yesterday. I had:
3 potatoes
1 cup shredded cabbage
1 packet of Panir (not the conventional cheese, rather the Asian variety, found in special shops)
1 cup blended tomatoes
4 chicken drumsticks
some tamarind juice
- I took the meat off the drumsticks and tossed them into the pan with some oil and the ginger garlic and let it saute
- cubed the potatoes and fried them
- cubed the panir and fried the pieces too
- when you fry the panir, careful! it will swell to almost double!
- poured the tomatoes over the chicken, added all the spices plus tamarind juice and let cook
- tossed in the cabbage, half a glass water, and covered it.

Tips: Sometimes the surface of the cheesecake cracks. To help prevent this from happening do not overbeat the batter, especially when
creaming the cheese and sugar.
Another reason for cracking is overbaking the cheesecake. Your cheesecake is done when it is firm but the middle may still look a little wet.

preheat oven atto 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) with rack in center of oven
In bowl with electric mixer place the cream cheese, sugar, and flour. Beat on medium speed until smooth (about 2 minutes), Add the eggs, one
at a time, beating well (about 30 seconds) after each addition. Add the whipping cream, lemon zest, vanilla extract and beat until well unite.
Remove the crust from the refrigerator and pour in the filling. Place the cheesecake pan on a larger baking pan and place in the oven.
Bake for 15 minutes and then lower the oven temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) and continue to bake for about another 1 hour or
until firm and only the center of the cheesecake looks done. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack.

******************************************************************
So here’s the recipe will try to write it easily so u understand it, as its difficult to write the cooking process some times :-) Its not so hard to
make its only the correct timing you have to be careful of and a helper for the cook, to do all the washings ;-)
Mix the dry milk powder in the milk this makes it thicker and give it a boil, sprinkle lemon juice as it starts raising and take it off, pour the
COLD water and let it stand for 2-3 mints, it will make like big big chunks don’t break them!!!
Now drain it onto a cheese cloth and wash it directly from the tap water so the sour taste of the lemon reduces, but don’t mix or mash with any
spoon or hand; just lightly and then press out the remaining water by squeezing it from all sides, so your khoya is ready.
Next stage:
Pour milk, Cond.milk and whipping cream and let it cook at least ½ an hour so it starts getting thicker, it will take long so what I did I added in
2 tblsp of dry milk powder again to make it more thicker faster, as u feel that now the quantity is nearly half reduces, crumble in the khoya and
mix all but don’t press it too hard only with light hands, mix all together and let cook, add in the sugar and keep stirring as now it will start
jumping and shooting all around , I changed the pots thrice as to obtain the nice creamy colour or else it turns brown very fast, no matter if the
pan is non stick it gets thicker and starts sticking so be careful and ready for it!!!
You will feel that the mixture is now leaving edges and is forming light dough so means it’s done.
Grease any steel plate or tray as it won’t stick on that but grease it with very light oil, I just wiped it with a kitchen paper dipped in oil, turn
over the mixture and flatten it only a bit not tooo flat as it has to be in thick pieces and don’t press the surface as it should give an like uneven
look like khoya :-)
Sprinkle chopped nuts, your choice and just let it cool for an hour in cold room temperature, then make pieces and eat …
Try not to store it long as it can get bad fast due to so much milk, so best to keep it in the fridge
