What is this? I have never seen it before? It looks like they use sawayan but they are frying it. It looks sinfully delicious. :yummy:

“A popular food during Ramadan in Pakistan is Khajla Phehni, deep-fried protein-rich vermicelli.”

I don’t know why the image isn’t showing up.

What is Khajla? What is Phehni? How did barfi get involved? Don’t tell me you put the khajla in the phehni … … it won’t help undomesticated me understand.

heheh :D

what i know isssssss

Khajla is kind of sewian... and it is almost tasteless... and pherni or pheni is kind of kheer... so in a bowl you take pherni and put khajla in it and eat :D

and Khajla-barfi is the same sewian and instead of kheer, there is a big barfi... you mash the barfi and khajla together and eat :D

Pheniyaan are delicious. They are similar to sawaeyaan. You usually dip them in milk and sugar and eat them like a cereal. DELICIOUS IN SEHRI !! They are heavy though. meaning, you feel full once you eat a bowl.

Oh I ate this in Karachi last year. It was soooooooo heavy and greasy galore!! Mmmmm, sounds disgustingly good.
