Pastries 4 cups plain flour 1 tsp salt 4 tbsp vegetable oil cold water 1/2 cup oil mixed with 2 tbsp flour to spread on pastry, extra flour for rolling Method 1. Mix salt oil…
Chickpea Pulao.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful You guys, I am so happy it's nearly the weekend! This past week has whizzed by simply because I've been so busy. Alhamdulillah, I've finally got out of my post-Ramadan rut and started to organize my life. I made a giant list last week of all the recipes that we made and loved during Ramadan. You guys, there were so many that I now have enough new blog content to last me until September…
Sooji Halwa - Semolina Halwa.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful The kind that we eat with pooris and chanay! This Sooji Halwa is a classic Pakistani dessert but as with the others I've made in the past, it was always shrouded in mystery. I didn't even know what the halwa was made of until now. Now, I know it's made with semolina which is a type of wheat. The semolina doesn't look like much but once it's roasted in melted butter and then sweetened with a…

Chickpea Curry - For Halwa Poori.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful It's the savoury element to the ultimate Pakistani breakfast. I've already shared the sweet dish for the breakfast which was this halwa and I'll be sharing the fried pooris very soon. But today, we're concentrating on the chanay which in essence, are just a simple chickpea curry. I start mine with a base of onions, ginger and garlic. Once they've cooked down, in go the spices. They're the usual…
Achari Bhindi.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful It's okra with all the flavours of our favourite spiced pickle! And, it's our new favourite vegetarian curry! I know that some people aren't too keen on okra but we love it. Probably because we've all grown up eating it. This achari take on an okra curry was inspired by the lamb version. And, it could not be easier. We shallow-fry the okra first which will make it less sticky. Then, we make a…
The Laziest Lamb Pulao.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful You guys, can you feel the days getting shorter? I definitely can. Today has been super busy, as always, and it's still not over yet. I made a classic Pakistani dessert (recipe coming!) and then, marinaded an entire roast chicken. I know to some of you that may seem nothing but for me, it was terrible. I'm so bad at touching raw whole chickens. It gives me the shivers especially since our…
Butter Chicken 2016.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Our new favourite version for 2016! I say that, because there is already a butter chicken recipe in the archives. It was posted two years ago and involves switching the oven on to cook the chicken. This new version is a favourite from Ramadan and everything is done on the cooker. We marinade some tandoori chicken and cook it. Next, we make a simple curry butter sauce to which the cooked chicken…
Mini Pakistani Lamb Samosas.
Jump to Recipe Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Just in time for your Ramadan prep! I must confess that I did actually freeze two batches of these mini Pakistani lamb samosas but they have both already been eaten. And, Ramadan hasn't even started yet! Nothing is safe in our freezer. We did do a massive freezer clear and sort out a few weeks back. Lists were made and stuck onto kitchen walls and everyone felt so much more…
Nargisi Kofta Curry.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful I have the best curry project for you today. It's a nargisi kofta curry. It's one of those curries that I never thought I would ever be able to master. I mean, look at it! There's so much going on! But, when I got down to trying and testing, I realised that it wasn't difficult at all. A little time consuming, yes, but not difficult. As I found, if you follow the recipe step-by-step and get the…
Lamb Biryani.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Happy Monday! How's your day going so far? Alhamdulillah, we finally have a little sunshine here after days of endless cloud. Let's hope it lasts. I love sunny days because they always put me in a good mood. Although for some reason, I prefer cloudy days for shooting food photos. Somehow, the light is always a little better and not too harsh. I hope you had a good weekend and are ready to begin…

Cauliflower Pakoras with Moong Daal Batter.
Jump to Recipe Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu! In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful A head of cauliflower and a batch of pakoras are two things that go hand in hand at my house. My dad will bring home the cauliflower for one reason and one reason only - to make pakoras out of it. But, our traditional pakora recipe, using cauliflower, potato, onion and peas can make a lot of pakoras. And, I sometimes felt that the cauliflower got lost amongst all those…

The recipe will be on the blog during Ramadan. This year, I'm trying to be organised and shoot most of my Ramadan recipes before the blessed month begins.
