Mutton Nihari
Nihari is one of most favorite and traditional dishes of every Muslim home. Be it mutton, chicken or beef nihari, it can be relished with any kind of meat. Traditionally nihari made with the bone marrow meat. It’s a deliciously smooth flour based stew with slow cooked mutton and a myriad of spices. Mutton Nihari takes a long time to cook but is easy to put together.
There are lot of ready made Nihari spices available in the market. But I would not Never Never recommend. As they are full of artificial colors and preservative agents. Not a healthy approach. 🙁 You can make the Nihari powder at home by following my Nihari Masala Mix and store it in airtight container for many days.
This is a must try recipe from my Mommy. We normally make Nihari with small pieces of mutton as we prefer it over the bone-in mutton.
Photo: Mutton Nihari
Note:
Preferably it must be cook on low flame, but those of you who would rather prefer a faster process can cook it in a pressure cooker though the Nihari taste wont be the same as cooked on a low flame.
So about this Mutton Nihari recipe. As you can see, there’s no layer of fat floating on top of the nihari, As many of you know, when we go out to eat it, we want the brain, marrow and floating oil on top, not a very healthy option. My mommy tried to make it just a little healthy by adding as little butter as possible without compromising on the flavor. Less fat and believe me, just as good. Or if you do like a little oil on top, when you are ready it dish it out, leave it covered on very low heat for about 5-7 minutes. Voila, the ‘little’ amount of oil will rise to the top!
Mutton Nihari with ginger and fried onion
Traditionally Nihari served with ginger, fried onion, green chilies and the hottest crisp khameeri roti or naan.
Nihari goes great with ginger, green chilies, fried onion, lemon and Khamiri Roti.
Let’s get started!

To make your own Nihari masala from scratch, dry roast all the whole spices for the masala and grind them to a fine powder.
Mutton Nihari Method

Oh ya, this is the good stuff. I mean, spaghetti and broccoli are such a wonderful, comforting combination anyway. But turn that into soup and you’ve got a wonderful meal for a cold winter night!
Broccoli Spaghetti Soup (Clean Eating Version)
In the last week, I seriously made four different types of soups. This Broccoli Spaghetti Soup was my favorite of the four, and surprisingly, the healthiest as well!
The recipe starts with crisp stalks of organic broccoli. I am making the organic distinction here, because the main flavor of this soup comes from the broccoli, so it’s got to be top notch. That means organic and preferably local.First tossed broccoli with olive oil until tender, caramelized and aromatic. Then stir in born broth and cooked spaghetti. It’s chunky, brothy savory, and just the right balance of pasta and green veggie. I love the aroma of parsley and chunky broccoli in this soup.

Hope, you are doing splendidly and enjoying the season. Well I’m in the middle of work, and anxiety has begun to sink its sharp little claws into my brain. It’s almost the final month of my training and I’m already drowning under a sea of coding assignments and project.
Ahhh I love to code even though it makes me want to tear my eyes out every 10 minutes. Crying Out Loud ;( I have constant fears that I’ve forgotten the code, functions, or left something somewhere blah blah blah. Problem is I love it but I have too much code to write though… ugh. This assignment is really doing my nut in!
I’ m carving chocolate soo bad while coding up my project and backing up files. Every time I write a code, I delete it again. Almost time for a pancake break 😛 Anyhow before going back to coding, I decided to update you guys with this short post.
If there’s one thing you should know about me right up front it’s that I love Chocolate and pancakes, always have. Chocolate chips, Pancakes, foggy weather and coding are the reasons I love life. Sounds super yummy!
Pancakes are probably in my Top 10 favorite foods. But they need chocolate chips. 🙂

For Pancake Batter
1-1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
4 tbsp melted butter
3/4 tsp vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips
For Serving
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tbsp confectioners’ sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Method
To Make the Dipping Sauce
Take a small bowl, add cream cheese, sugar and vanilla to it. Beat until stiff peaks form. Now cover and refrigerate until serving.
To Make Pancakes
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
Stir flour mixture into wet ingredients. Beat until smooth.
Fold in chocolate chips.
Pour batter 1/4 cup full onto a lightly greased hot pan or skillet.
Flip when bubbles form on top. Cook a minute more or until second side is golden brown. Chocolate Chip Pancakes are ready to serve. ENJOY!!
Serving Suggestions: Serve with whipped cream.
Tips For Diet Version Pancakes (Clean Eating):
You can make gluten free Pancakes by using gluten-free oats and flour.
For Sweeting: Add 1 Tablespoons of honey, apple syrup, or nectar is optional for extra sweetening, but I didn’t find it necessary.
Don’t add butter. Mash very ripe banana with baking powder. It gives
them a moist and fluffy texture.
Serve plain or with a small drizzle of honey and a few additional chocolate chips for melting.
Put your own spin on it. And lemme know how it turns out. Post a photo on Facebook (Recipestable) or on Twitter so I can see how lovely yours turn out.

Shawarma is eaten in Arab countries, Pakistan, South Africa and the United Kingdom, and the meats, toppings and sauce vary depending on the country. Traditionally, Shawarma is made with chicken, lamb, beef, or goat that has been marinated, and is wrapped and cooked on a vertical rotisserie (similar to Greek gyro meat). When an order is placed, meat is shaved off and served as a wrapped sandwich (using pita bread) with fresh pickles and sauce.

Chicken Shawarma Wraps
So today, I’m going to share this awesome Chicken Shawarma Wraps recipe with my fans. This dish is not hard to make, it just requires a little bit of planning ahead. Well worth the effort!

This Chicken Shawarma Wraps recipe is bursting with middle eastern flavors. Simple to make. Think of your favorite gyro place where they are slicing meats from a spit, and placing it inside of warm pita or flat-bread, along with sauces and vegetables. That’s shawarma, and this is my take on it. Did I mention my entire family was totally in love with this??

It is really difficult to recreate the taste of shawarma at home, but this recipe I think, does it justice. The key is to leave the chicken marinading overnight for maximum flavour, and to have the grill smoking hot when cooking. And I made the Shawarma Pickles two days before and made a batch of sour cream as well as hummus sauce.

Sorry I din’t get step by step picture as I was in a bit hurry to assemble the wraps. But I will try to upload step by step pictures later. InshaAllah !!

Important Tips:
Try not to pile the pitas on top of each other until after they have cooled. This keeps them nice and plump for filling.
To store pita breads, you can wrap them in cling film and freeze for up to 3 weeks.
For the filling you can use any mixture of your choice with salad, just slit the pitas and stuff them with your favorite ingredients.
You can also make pita breads on a frying pan or hot griddle or even it a bread-maker.
