Re: sehri and iftari

If you have pressure cooker, make haleem (or haleem type concotion). I was alone, last Ramazaan as family was in Michigan and I was in Seattle. Some family gave me some food and I cooked some before Ramazan. One day, I mixed every left over (cooked rice, cooked vegetable, meat, chciken), added some tomaote paste, onions, garam masala and left in pressure cooker.

It was yummy during Sehri time (with a piece of bread)

Nah...definitely don't do warmed up tuna.

I hate making Tuna sandwiches for hubby too....the kitchen smells for ages afterwards!!!

Waiseh in Ramzan you should not eat too much tuna or other garam stuff!

Re: sehri and iftari

STP,
you're treading on thin ice, brother.
the easiest is cereals, sesame seed or seeded rye bread or nan with omelets or yogurt with sugar for sehri with tea or milk & water to avoid thirst.

cant make or eat spicy shorba salens at sehri

an omelets recipe

2 eggs
1-2 finely chopped spring onions, green chilies & tomatoes
1/4 tsp red chilli powder
1/4 tsp salt
olive oil for frying
garnish - shredded swiss cheese
heat up the oil
beat eggs in chopped veges and spices
fry the omelet until golden brown
remove from stove
cool for a min
garnish with shredded cheese on

at iftaar, get lots water, of course, dates and baklava. :)
Mediterranean middle eastern dish - baba ganoosh with grape leafs and falafal.

home made vegetables with rice (are very easy to make at home (you have to learn to cook for being self sufficient :)) and if you eat meat then buy ready made kebabs from a good meat shop and fry them at home.

best is fresh fruits and nuts.
best,

Dushwari

Re: sehri and iftari

Two experiences.

  1. While I am cooking for Iftar if some meal sticks to my index finger I unintentionally move my finger to my tongue, but Alhamdulillah in both cases I just realized before licking my finger.

  2. Cooking seems to kill the hunger of the cook to some extent.

Re: sehri and iftari

make some chicken boiled with salt, pepper.
when the chicken is dried, make fibers of them n just keep in ur fridge.

now u can use it in different ways,
1..mix this chicken fibers with seasonal vegetables or can simply put it in a roti with a paste of ketchup or any sauce u want, n then roll it. a simple shawarma is ready.

2.boil some potato, mash them mix chicken fibers n salt, chilli according to taste.n make a kabab of them. u can freez those shami kababs. n fry when u want. eat them alone or make a sandwich in bread or can eat wid roti.

3..take chicken fibers,mix in mayonese with salt and peper,paste on bread and homemade club sandwich is ready, u can also add small cubes/pieces of boild eggs in that paste of chicken and mayonese.
