My mum uses that sometimes....
but arabian food, Morrocan Tagine etc. is very nice, My friend's dad is Morrocan and owns a restaurant. It's very nice, although a bit weird at times...but all tastes good.
I know how to cook simple meals like fried rice and noodles
i was abroad once , and i met up with sum indonesian sisters , it was eid so one of them invited us around .....anyways well the sister made sum nice rice and meat curry dish...
the rice was actually cooked/steamed into a bag so it was like a block shape , and then later on she cut it into little squares,
boy o boy was that nice , i wanna ask you wots that dish called and how d'you make it...
jazaakallaahu khayran
Hey you dont mean to tell me you never had that by us before amirah?amazing!!!
Well what this sister served you was 'Ketupat' that's the rice cut up into squares thingy
And the meat was probably 'rendang'
Ketupat is easy!! traditionally they're wrapped up in banana leaves and boiled, but nowadays people are too lazy to weave the banana leaf cases ;D
So anyway, the QUICK way to do it is just to get some sticky rice...not parboiled rice.....what kind of rice gets stickky when you cook it? Jasmine rice? yeah I think it's jasmine rice :X
So take some of that and place it into a sandwhich sized plastic bag. (Make sure this plastic bag can endure boiling water for a time span of 2 hours at least.) Fill up the bag 3/4 full and fold the top a little and staple closed (to make sure rice doesn't fall out )then prick holes all over it with a fork and then place into a pot of boiling water, and boil until rice is fully cooked. Remove from pan and drain and place on a tray and place something heavy ontop of the rice cakes so that the rice will stick together. When cold cut into cubes and serve with rendang or peanut sauce or stir fried satay......yummy!!!
