Mash Allah sister ... good thread
Jazaki lahu khayran
Yaetik saha as we say in Algeria :) mashalah elik
 
I need to show this to my mom;D
Or if I'm not mistaken, one of my classes in my school will teach us cooking!
 
So, I've wanted to post here for a while, but have hesitated to because... well I'm just too tired to take pics and upload them! But I hope you can benefit from the recipes anyway. :statisfie

Today I made 'exotic carrots', my own recipe.

I peeled and diagonally sliced 1 lb (about 500 gm) of carrots. Then I heated them over just past medium heat in olive oil, salt and pepper until softened. Then I turned the heat down to low and added lime zest, coconut milk and ground white cardamom. I did not measure the spices, but I used a liberal hand as I like strong flavours! Add enough coconut milk to make the carrots look wet and saucy, but not soupy. Stir well over low heat for a few minutes until all of the flavours are dispersed.

The whole family agreed that it was delicious!
 
Mashallah .. that's good I will try to be a good chef like you and sister Herb

We are the same ;) I love my cooking some much but they some times eat a few I think they didn't like it
But for me I love to eat my cooking but it's rarely

I find that kind of ironic, because when I was learning to cook, I would often be afraid to eat my own cooking. Even if it looked good and smelled good, and I knew I had done it right, I thought there must be something wrong with it.

I was never that way with baking, though. I learned baking on my own, at a younger age, and I loved it. I like cooking better than baking because if I cook dinner, it's gone in 30 minutes, but if I bake, I have a treat for several days! I love baking muffins and freezing them. I reheat them in the microwave for breakfast. My daughter and I also make waffles and pancakes and freeze them to eat for breakfast.

I have food allergies, so I can't eat most convenience foods and have to make my own if I want them. I also freeze any dinner left-overs for convenient lunches.
 
The same for me but I was love to cook I was love kitchen when I was 18 but because I feel like it's not that important to me because my mom was deed everything and just want to be comfort and good ...I start feel it us not important thing .. so this make me some lazy :)
Me too I love cooking better than baking because our pastry need a lot of time but it's so good if you want to enjoy time and creative

Exotic carrots sounds nice one recipe. I´ll try it when my carrots will grow bigger (they are still quite small). Yesterday I made zucchini lasagna: to the pan a layer of sliced zucchinis, add salt and pepper. Then browned ground beef, tomato sauce, olives, vegetables (what ever you have, better to cook them half soft), more sliced zucchini, more vegetables and herbs and at the final layer grated cheese (I used mozzarella). Bake in the oven, +225 C about 1 hour.

Today I will make strawberry syrup. :p It´s yummy-yummy with ice cream or pancakes or...
 
Thank you sister for this recipe

Salmon Patties

Take 6 oz of boneless, skinless salmon and put in a bowl. Mix in some salt and pepper to taste. Add 2 whole eggs. Next I added a small handful of lemon zest and a half a dash of lemon oil. I also added about 3 TBS finely chopped fresh sage. After that, add bread crumbs and Greek yogurt. Some recipes call for mayonnaise, but that is too fattening! I mixed it all with a hand mixer to avoid flaking the fish. If it's too wet, add more bread crumbs. If too dry, add more yogurt. Form into balls or patties and dry fry in a non-stick skillet, flipping halfway through cooking, until the patties are solidly cooked.

You can really add any flavours you want. This is the first time I've tried this combo, since I had fresh sage that needed to be used.

I haven't finished cooking them yet...hope they are good!

Were they good?
 
Oops, I messed up I was so excited. It was 2 6oz cans of salmon I used, and yes, they were delicious!
 
6-8 large eggs
1 Package frozen chopped spinach, or 2-3 good sized handfuls of fresh spinach, chopped fine
1 handful shredded melting cheese of your choice
Tabasco or hot sauce (if desired)

In a large pan add the eggs, spinach, and cheese. Stir and cook until the eggs are well scrambled and cooked thoroughly and the cheese is melted throughout. Add hot sauce if desired for a little kick during the final stirring before removing from heat.

This dish refrigerates well and is even good cold. May Allah bless us all with sufficient food and success in our endeavors. :)
 
I think this is islamic forum so please post Islamic post it will be batter for all of us

Do you mean Middle Eastern/North African recipes? I love Moroccan food, but tagines take a loooong time to cook, so I don't make them very often. I will try to remember to post one if I cook it. I don't eat piggies and I won't be posting dishes with alcohol or vanilla extract or anything like that.

By the way, if anyone has a good recipe for jeweled rice, and knows where I can buy the proper sugar for it, I'd appreciate it!
