Re: Iftar recipes!

easy fruit chaat:

  • cut up your assorted fruits (sometimes I like to add channay to my fruit chaat too)
  • 2 spoons of sugar
  • a pinch of salt
  • 2 spoons of powdered Orange Tang
  • 3 tablespoons of Mango Pulp

  • mix and enjoy!

I do like to top off my fruit chaat (in my own bowl) with those tiny crunchy piece of pakoras that's left over. It adds a nice crunch. =)

Re: Iftar recipes!

^ I like to add daal moth, or other chevda to my fruit chaat.

Re: Iftar recipes!

my brothers mix their fruit chaat with dhai balay. its good too.filling as well.

Re: Iftar recipes!

I like to sprinkle crisps over my chaat and/or dahi phulki/bare...adds a nice crunch and flavour.I eat my fruit chaat on it's own...totally unadulterated.It's my fave iftari item...​drool...

Re: Iftar recipes!

Jiaa , thats a good recipe .. what do you eat this stuff with? are they like namak para’s ? :konfused:

**Hadeel , here’s the recipe for Chinese Pakoray :

**Using a shredder, thinly shred raw potatoes … 2 Medium sized potatoes
Thinly shred half cup of cabbage
Thinly shred two carrots
quarter cup corn
Thinly cut green capsicum ( make sure its more like a julian cut )
thinly chop spring onion ( about 3 sprigs are enough ) or if you prefer onion then thinly slice half an onion.

Now in a pan stir fry cabbage this should only take you 30 seconds .. otherwise the cabbage will lose its crisp .. Keep aside …
now stir fry the corn, after 30 seconds add in the shredded carrots, after 30 seconds add in the spring onion, then finally the capsicum and keep aside …

now in the same pan, pour two tablespoons ketchup, two tablespoons vinegar, two teaspoons soya sauce, two to three drops of fish sauce , one teaspoon chilli sauce, one tsp ajinomoto or salt … keep it on low fire and add in all the vegies that you stir fried … please dont include the potatos yet in this mix … after a minute of mixing it on medium heat .. take it all off and keep aside to cool …

When cool, add in the shredded potatoes, but before that please check if the spices are ok to you desired taste …
now in a cup mix three to four tablespoons maida in little water to make a thick paste … add this into the vegies … mix it all .. if need be add a few more drops of water or maida …

fry them like regular pakoray … they taste awesome :@:

Re: Iftar recipes!

Its a type of chevda - this is daal moth:

Re: Iftar recipes!

awww thank you CB! I’ll make these tomorrow inshaAllah.

One question, when you say maida..I’m assuming you mean besan? :konfused:

Re: Iftar recipes!

Preparation time

  • couple of hours of shopping at local mall

**
Ingredients**

  • Phone
  • Begum

Method

  • Call begum and ask to make something good

Re: Iftar recipes!

Nope , no besan in these ones … you have to add self raising flour in these … make sure you dont put too much .. coz then they wont become crispy ..

Re: Iftar recipes!

I really want to see your begum kaboo karo you in the kitchen while she goes shopping :ASA:
