Rasoolullaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said that a Muslim eats in one stomach whereas a Kaafir eats in seven stomachs.

Speaking about the Kuffaar and their gluttony, Allaah Ta`aalaa says:

والذين كفروا يتمتعون ويأكلون كما تأكل الأنعام والنار مثوى لهم

{"...Those who commit Kufr enjoy themselves and eat as the animals eat, and the fire will be their abode."** [Soorah Muhammad, 47:12]
​

So gluttony should never be part of a Muslim's nature.
 
Huzaifah ibn Adam said:
It is extremely wasteful, yes. If people are going to make such an enormous platter, then invite 100-200 poor people to join you in the meal. Then there will be immense Thawaab (reward), In Shaa Allaah.

But 10 people devouring so much food is wastefulness and gluttony.

It's sad. Very sad. In some cultures they dish out in their plates more than they can eat. Especially at occasions. Then all that food goes to waste because due to hygiene and mahram reasons it can't be eaten by other people(Is that correct? If a Ghair mahram eats or drinks from something..Can it be eaten by just anyone?)

The Hukamaa (Wise Men) have advised that a person should not eat the remainder of food which a Ghayr Mahram has eaten from, because they say this will plant the seed of attraction in their hearts for one another.

However, I do not know of any Hadeeth which mentions anything of the sort, so a person cannot say it is Haraam (forbidden) until they have clear proof from Qur'aan and Sunnah to back up such a claim.

Yes its true that you can eat from there because, one can eat the leftovers of a non-muslim so it shouldnt be a problem. Huzaifah ibn Adam.
 
So to abstain from these left-overs with the intention of it being Haraam is incorrect but to abstain is preferred?
 
Yes: to believe that it is Haraam to partake of it is incorrect. If a person abstains because he wants to act on the advice of the Hukamaa who warned against the negative effects it might have, then that is fine.

How much do you like burfee? [emoji14]
I like how this is done. It reminds me of a wedding parcel[emoji257]
 
Burfee looks good but remember that this thread is also (or specially) for the recipes, not only for (yummy) pictures.
 
Burfee is my most favourite of Indian sweets, (altho chum chums come close behind).

[MENTION=9623]sister herb[/MENTION], here's a recipe for burfee (but I love the shop ones more) :D This is a really simple version, very easy to make.



Ingredients



  • 1 cup milk powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • saffron strands, dry fruits or nuts of your choice for garnishing (optional)


Instructions


  • Butter a tray or plate and set aside.
  • Heat butter in a non stick pan on low flame until melt.
  • Add milk and milk powder and mix thoroughly.
  • Now mix in the powdered sugar and keep stirring continuously.
  • Cook till it becomes a lump in the middle and butter starts leaving the sides of the mixture.
  • Transfer this mixture to the buttered tray or plate and flatten in with the back of a spoon.
  • Allow it to cool and set. Now cut into desired shape and garnish with the soaked saffron and nuts of your choice. Serve at room temperature.
 
How To Turn Cow Brains Into A Delicious Fried Snack

1. Here it is, step by step. First, get some brains.

The best way to do this is contact a local butcher and ask them to special order them. As we discovered in our raw brain taste test, there are several animals with palatable brains including goats, lamb, and calves. The brains in this video are calf and were purchased from Pat LaFrieda.

2. At this point, if you are crazy like our editor Gavon, you could eat them raw.

But we are absolutely not going to recommend that.

3. Instead, bring a pot of water to simmer and add salt, garlic, peppercorns, and herbs. Simmer for 15 minutes.

4. Gently lower the brains into the pot and simmer for 6 minutes.

5. Remove the brains with a slotted spoon and let cool.

6. When the brains are cold and firm, cut the lobes into 2 inch chunks.

7. Try to make them evenly sized so they will cook at the same rate.

8. Meanwhile, prepare 3 bowls: In one of them put the flour, in another put the egg whisked with milk, and in the third put the breadcrumbs. Roll each brain segment in flour, then coat it in the egg mix, then coat it in the breadcrumbs.

9. Deep-fry the breaded brain nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes.

10. Drain on paper towels, sprinkle with salt, and serve immediately.

11. Calf tasted the best.

Very creamy.
