A sticky and sweet date and nutty filling spread between Whole Wheat Fiber Rich Biscuits.

Almost everyone enjoys having evening or morning tea with some light snacks. And if are a tea lover like me, cookies or biscuits would probably be your favorite tea companion. No matter which hot beverage you enjoy everyday, switching to healthy snacks is always a good idea for your health. I love digestive biscuits, but thanks to my sugar craving that persuaded me to turn these whole wheat slices into a delicious healthy treat to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Why These Date-Filled Sandwich Biscuits are a smart choice
- When you substitute dates for table sugar, you get a bunch of other nutrients along with your sugar! Sugar is just food that’s been stripped of all fiber, vitamins, and minerals, so why not make your treats sweet with something that actually provides all of those? Dates are high in calories, but unlike sugar, the calories obtained from dates come with a lot of nutritional properties.
- Dates are rich in potassium, iron and other beneficial plant compounds. The high soluble fiber content helps in fighting off sugar cravings and stimulate the growth of healthy bacteria in the intestines. I prefer to use dates in dessert as a replacement for sugar.

Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe
Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

Imagine if you will that a lamb meat patty married a corn fritter and they had babies = Lamb corn Fritters. I’m not sure why I hadn’t thought of this sooner. They are healthier than regular lamb fritters; being half meat and half veggie and they are super juicy and flavorful.

Here’s a healthy recipe for Lamb Corn Fritters – without deep frying! Because nobody likes soggy fritters. And nobody wants to deal with a vat of oil tonight! Dinner really doesn’t get any easier than this! These Lamb Corn Fritters are so easy, you can practically whip up these juicy fritters in no time!

These fritters are ideal to make with fresh corn cut off the cob, but can be made with canned or frozen corn. Serve for breakfast, lunch, dinner!

Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

What you need to make really great, Lamb Corn Fritters

Here’s what you need to make these Lamb Corn fritters:

Ground Lamb: I like to grind my lamb at a ratio of about 80% lean. I feel this brings out the most flavor. The best places to buy fresh ground lamb is your local butcher shop. If you want to use lamb, ask your butcher to grind it for you or, to make your own ground lamb, start with a lean cut. You can also use lean ground beef or turkey instead.
Corn: as noted above, fresh is better for both flavor and crispiness. But canned and frozen work too, you just need to make an effort to dry it out as much as you can.
Egg: egg to bind the meat and corns. It will help to get mince to stick together better.
Ricotta Cheese: – for a good hit of savory flavor AND to make the fritters extra juicy and flavorful!
Green Masala: Green onion, green chilies and coriander – for a hit of freshness.
Seasoning: salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes (my fav)
Olive oil: to sauté

Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

How to make Lamb Corn Fritters

And here’s how to make them.
1. Mixing: Place lamb mince and corn in a bowl. Then add 1 lb fresh ground lamb. 1 egg, finely sliced green chilies, green onions, fresh coriander, salt, black pepper, red pepper and 1 cup ricotta cheese. Mix until well combined. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
2. Cooking: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 2 Tbsp. extra light olive oil. Place a heaping tablespoon of the mixture into your hand and form a oval or round shaped patty about 1/3-inch thick. Cook over medium heat uncovered for 5-7 minutes, then flip, cover and cook for another 5 minutes more or until meat cooked through. Add more oil to the pan as needed for subsequent batches.
3. The fritters take a good 12-15 minutes to cook so they’re golden on the outside and for the raw meat to cook through (remember, these are fritters so they are not very thick).
4. Pro Tip: You can use an ice cream scooper with a lever to scoop the batter into the pan. Then flatten using a greased spatula! But don’t crowd the skillet, adding more oil to pan if required.
Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

How to serve corn fritters

Corn fritters is one of those rare foods that truly spans the breakfast-lunch-dinner spectrum! Here’s how to serve it.
- stack of 4 corn fritters topped with poached or pan fried egg (runny yolks of course!)
- dollop of sour cream or yogurt – or go all out with Jalapeno Cream Sauce
- optional extras: side of toast or bun (try this simple Buttermilk Rolls
- finishes: small side of lightly dressed leafy green salad
- To make it a meal, the bread fills it out nicely, though you could opt for a big salad instead – try one of these: Crunchy Pickled Kachumber Salad, Bean Salad with Olives and Herbs, Russian Macaroni Salad ,Apple and Orange Salad
Though having suggested those various ways to serve it, the reality is that you will want to snatch them fresh off the stove, before you’ve even had a chance to plate them up properly. And that’s totally ok too! – Bushra

Stuffed Chicken Buns

How to Bake Perfect Stuffed Chicken Buns every time!

Stuffed Chicken Buns
1. Dough: These stuffed buns are an easy bake with only a single rise needed for the dough. That makes it a comparatively quicker snack. When making anything with yeast, including these buns, let the dough rise to the point the recipe says it should, e.g., “Let the dough rise till it’s doubled in bulk.” Rising times are only a guide; there are so many variables in yeast baking (how you knead the dough; what kind of yeast you use) that it’s impossible to say that bread dough will ALWAYS double in bulk in a specific amount of time.
2. Stuffing: They prepared a cheesy chicken filling and stuff into these soft buns and life will be so much simpler for you. You can fill up your buns with lots of different things. I like to add some mushrooms and olives to mine, but you can use any kind of vegetables, meat stuffing you prefer! Pizza sauce would be another great addition. Or throw in some fresh herbs. Oh, the possibilities are endless!
3. Shaping: Shape them as per your liking and bake. For slightly smaller buns, divide the dough into 12 pieces instead of 10. Bake the buns for 12 to 15 minutes, instead of 15 to 18 minutes. And how about “slider buns” — about 3″ in diameter? Divide the dough into 24 pieces, and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Proceed with the recipe as written.
4. Alternative way of Shaping: What’s another easy way to shape buns, besides rolling them into balls and flattening? Gently deflate the dough, and form it into a smooth 8″ log. Slice the log as though you were slicing cinnamon buns. Gently pull each slice into a circle.
5. Brushing: Brushing buns with melted butter will give them a soft, light golden crust. Brushing with an egg-white wash (1 egg white beaten with 1/4 cup water) will give them a shinier, darker crust. For seeded buns, brush with the egg wash; it’ll make the seeds adhere. And, feel free to add the extra yolk to the dough, reserving the white for the wash.

And serve with your favorite dips and sauces.

The Easiest Bread Pizza Recipe
Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

No time to make your own dough? Same here. Skip the homemade crust for easy, cheesy love in 10 minutes. Use bread slices for the crust and have dinner ready in no time. Loaded with great taste and ready in under 15 minutes start-to-finish, it’s sure to become a family favorite! A fun and flexible recipe you’re sure to make over and over again!

Just try saying no to that

The Easiest Bread Pizza

I could eat pizza all day, every day. But I don’t always have the time to make my own crust. Delivery adds up, and store bought crusts tend to be pretty low quality. That’s where this bread pizza recipe comes in. It isn’t even so much of a recipe, per se, but a guideline for happiness.

I love it for many reasons.
1. First, it fits the quick and easy bill beautifully. Simply places the bread slices, brush with butter, and give it a little broil to create that crunchy-on-the-outside but soft-and-chewy-on-the-inside texture that’s so wonderful in this easiest bread pizza. Then slather on some prepared sauce, load on the toppings, and give it all a quick 6 to 8 minute bake in the oven. Done. Add a side salad or some fresh fruit, and dinner’s served.
2. Second, it tastes delicious. Before piling on the toppings, the bread itself is seasoned with garlic powder and oregano for a little added flavor touch. And then with the classic “supreme” combination of toppings, how could it not be tasty, right?
3. Third, it’s versatile. Change up the toppings to suit any personal tastes. Don’t like veggies? No problem … leave them off. Want more cheese? Great! … load it up. Or hey, get totally crazy and prepare each bread toast differently … perhaps Supreme for one slice, and just pepperoni and cheese for the other. Or, if you like more unique pizza flavor combinations, give My Favorite French Bread Pizza a whirl.
4. Fourth, it reheats well. If you don’t mind soft bread all around, a quick zap in the microwave works great. For that classic bread pizza touch-of-crunch, pop the pizza back in a preheated oven for just a couple of minutes and you’re good to go.
5. And fifth, The Easiest Bread Pizza isn’t just great for a quick and easy dinner, it’s always fabulous for game-day {or any day} snacking, too. Bake some up and slice into fingers for a tasty treat while you’re cheering on your favorite team.
The Easiest Bread Pizza

Bread pizza is one of the quickest & easiest snacks that you can make with minimal ingredients. All you need is of course some bread slices, veggies of your choice, pizza sauce, cheese, leftover chicken, and some seasoning. Easy right?

To make the bread pizza healthier use whole wheat breads or any bread that you fancy. Garlic bread would taste great too.

The Easiest Bread Pizza

There are a few tricks to making this bread pizza taste its best. First, you’ll want to toast the bread for about 5 minutes by itself to crisp it up a bit. Then you’ll add the pizza sauce , cheese (a good melty mozzarella) and your favorite toppings (I liked veggie version, but you can add leftover tikka, seekh kebabs, cooked mince, mushrooms etc choices are endless ) before returning it to the oven to get the cheese melty and the pizza glistening.

And that’s all there is to it! This is great recipe to make with your kids or better yet, let your kids make themselves.

So easy, so yummy!

The Easiest Bread Pizza

Allow to cool for a few minutes, slice and enjoy!

For dinner, I’ll serve it alongside a big salad. For lunch, I usually put out veggies and hummus to go with it. And for an ea snack, I cut each toast into fourths and serve it with fruit. They’re easy to make, easy to eat and easy to clean up after. YES!!

Bismisllah Let’s Get This Started !

Ingredients You will Need:
For Buns Dough
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoon milk powder
- 1/2 cup water (might use less)
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 4 tablespoon oil
- 4 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
Chicken Filling
- 2 cups boiled chicken, shredded
- 1 large red onion, finel chopped
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoon plain flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili, crushed
- 4 tablespoon coriander leaves
- 4 green chilies, finely chopped
- 1 cup milk
For Assembling Buns
- white & black sesame seeds, as required
- 1 egg yolk, beaten with 1 tsp milk, for brushing the buns before baking
How to Make Flower Shaped Buns:

Step 1: Sieve the flour and dry milk powder in a large mixing bowl. Make three holes in the flour, and then put sugar, yeast, and salt in each hole. Gently cover the holes with the flour. Then add the oil, melted butter and the egg, and combine together.

Step 2: Pour lukewarm milk in the flour mix. Start kneading together and gradually add the lukewarm water a little at a time. You may not need to use all the water, so add it sparingly until your dough comes together and is nice and soft. Knead for a good 10-15 minutes.When the dough becomes smooth and elastic, it is done. (Note: The more you knead the dough, the softer the buns will be).

Step 3: Touch a bit of oil with your fingertips and apply all over the ball of dough. Loosely cover the bowl with plastic wrap or cover with a damp cloth and set it in a warm place for 40 minutes to an hour for it to double in size.

Step 4 :To Make Chicken Filling – Melt 2 tablespoon butter in a frying pan or wok. Saute onion in butter until transculant. Add flour, salt, pepper and red chili and cook for 2-3 minutes. Now add milk and cook for 4-5 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Add shredded chicken, green chilies, fresh coriander leaves. Stir until well combined and remove from the heat. Let it cool completely.

Step 5: When the dough has risen into a nice big size, take the dough out of the bowl and Punch it down to remove some of the air in the dough.

Step 6: Divide the dough into 16-18 balls, depending on the size of buns you would like.

Step 7: Gently roll out each piece of dough and make a round ball. Flatten a ball until it is about 3 inches in diameter and place 2 tablespoon of chicken filling in the center.

Step 8: Pull up the edges of the rolled out dough and pinch together to firmly seal the filling within.

Step 9: Put the sealed part face down on the board and press the dough into about a 2 inch diameter. Make 8 decorative slits around the edge, equally spaced apart (either using a pizza cutter or sharp knife or even a pair of kitchen scissors).

Step 10 : Place the prepared buns on a greased cooking sheet or tray and cover with a light cloth and let them rise for about 20 minutes to half an hour.

Step 11: Brush each bun with beaten egg yolks and put some black and white sesame seeds in the center of the each bun.

Step 12: Bake the buns, in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden.

Step 13: Remove and brush the buns top with melted butter (it will give nice shiny look) and let it rest covered with a cloth for 2-3 min to soften the bread completely.. Flower Shaped Buns are ready to serve. ENJOY with your favorite dipping sauce.

Potato Egg Pakora Bites Recipe (Family Favorite Snack)

Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

Happy Ramadan to you all!

May this month be full of blessings, happiness, and peace for you and your family. As much as we must be eating light, Ramadan is the month when we end up eating most of the greasy stuff. All kind of fried dishes are made in the name of iftar.

The first word that comes into your mind when you think about an iftari is? Yes its pakora! Pakoras are one snack associated with Iftar here in Pakistan. Truly, a Pakistani iftar is incomplete without the presence of a mighty pakora. The word pakora is derived from a Sanskrit word “pakvavata” which means small food lump (pakva means cooked and vata means small lump).

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes Recipe
Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

Who says making fish cakes is tedious?
Who says you need some clever work?

Today, I am going to share My favorite ‘Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes recipe’ with all of you!!

Fish cakes are real comfort food and so easy to make with some leftover fish(you can use salmon, tuna cod or haddock etc). Delicious, family-friendly Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes. Perfect for a quick and healthy dinner.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes

Yes, its so easy to make!!
The process is done in less than 15 minutes with a food processor, plus some manual work.. stirring and forming patties and frying.
That’s all.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes

This is a full-of herbs fish cakes indeed! The herbs ; dill, coriander, basil, parsley and ginger. The herb mixture is so fragrant, the basil leaves gave a wonderful aroma that no other herbs can give, do not leave it out. I have always used fresh basil leaves for my cooking, a common ingredient over here in my Kitchen. Basil leaves are so fragrant. And I do have many pots of basil plants in my potted garden.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes

White-fleshed fish meat (boneless and skinless, I’ve used sole) are cut to chunks and process briefly in the food processor just so they are broken into small pieces. They are then added to the herb mixture, along with chopped green onion, half an egg, cornflour, ground coriander, sauce, lemon zest, and salt. Shape into cakes, flatten a little, and fry in hot oil on both sides until cooked through. Fish meat cooked pretty quickly, So I have cooked the fish cakes on the stove over medium-low heat on both sides, turning them over a couple of times until they are cooked through.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes: they get a high score on the flavour front.

Bright, bold and richly flavored, these are not your typical fish cakes. There are a lot of herbs and various other aromatics in these fish cakes, which gets them a high score on the flavour front. That flavor is layered into every step: the fish is mixed with green onions along with vibrant herbs and fragrant lemon zest. If you use less, they will still taste pretty good, and the fish will stand out more. These quantities make 12-16 cakes (depending on size), or enough for four as a first course; or serve as a main with a substantial salad and some good crusty bread. Serve these crisp-edged cakes with a dollop of garlic mayonnaise — or mayonnaise spiked with garlic sauce or preserved lemons.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes

Fish cakes are an economical way of making fish go further. You can, if necessary, replace some of the fish by adding some mashed potatoes but check the seasoning carefully to make sure the finished cakes don’t taste too bland. The addition of herbs gives flavour and also produces attractive green flecks.

Full-of-Herbs Fish Cakes

Very tasty and really fragrant from the basil leaves. These fish cakes taste the best when hot (as recommended in the recipe), as when they cool down to room temperature, they do get a little fishy! I ate these with some green salad as part of my dinner dish.

Extra-Bonus Tip:
1. You can fry, bake or grill them.
2. Food processor might smell for sometime. You can remove the smell bu pulsing the food processor with vinegar or lemon juice mixed with some very warm water, and put it out to dry properly.

Veggie Pizza Cups Recipe

Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

As a child I was not the veggie lover I am today.When my mommy cooked veggies, I was apprehensive. Vegetables? Ew! A few years have passed since then and I love veggies of all shapes and sizes.

This weekend, I had a day off and I decided to cook nothing but finger foods. I knew I wanted veggie pizza, but I wanted something more convenient and easier to eat. I have found that when I make veggie pizza in the flat pizza style, it can be a little messy to eat because the toppings want to fall off. So, I did a quick Youtube search and found the recipe I used as inspiration for my Veggie Pizza Cups.

Ramadan is coming and with it comes family get-together’s and parties. And if you need an easy to make appetizer recipe for your next party, then you should try this Veggie Pizza Cups. There’s no reason for buying store made appetizers when they’re so easy to make, fun & cheap and are guaranteed to be a hit at your next party. Don’t slave away in the kitchen when you could be enjoying the party!

The idea may seem daunting at first but I hope by now I’ve got you well acquainted with handling different types of pizza’s. Be it: my The Perfect pizza dough recipe used to make not just this beautiful Baby Chicken Bread but also these cute little Mini Pizza Cups. Or this super easy and frugal recipe for Pizza Paratha. And how can we forget, my all-time favorite, the soft puffy Pizza Rolls …O’so good!

Cute little Veggie Pizza Cups in Oven

It’s one of my favorite finger food. It’s amazing that just a few basic ingredients can come together into something so delicious. For topping, I decided to use mixed veggies (corn, carrot, capsicum, green onion) and mushrooms in these because they’re my favorites veggies, but you could easily mix it up and use any toppings you like. I really do recommend making it as listed though, because these were just perfect. It tastes just like you’re eating a slice of pizza! Don’t skip out on the Italian Seasoning either – I think it adds a lot of flavor.

They tasted delicious and impressed my family without making a mess. I will definitely be making them again this holiday season.

These Veggie Pizza Cups can be used for appetizers, party snacks, a light lunch, the first course of a dinner. Perfect party for picky eaters.

Mini Pizza Cups Recipe

Pizza is always a crowd pleaser, but making your own can be a bit of a headache. This bite-sized alternative is easy to make and healthy (just 150 calories each!) and as much fun to make as they are to eat.

Mini Pizza Cups

Mini Pizza Cups

I’m sure you’ve all heard of or made Pizza Cupcakes or Pizza Muffins before. But as simple or obvious as this recipe seems, sometimes we need a good reminder of the un-fussy classics. Sometimes you don’t have time or the right ingredients to make an elaborate meal. When this happens, it’s good to have something simple and inexpensive to fall back on.

Healthy, Budget Friendly Mini Pizza Cups? Yes, Yes, and Yes!

Mini Pizza Cups

If you’re crazy about pizza like me, but can’t justify eating it as much as you’d like, this is a great recipe for you. I used leftover pizza dough, chicken, lots of fresh vegetables, and a tablespoon or so of cheese on each mini pizza. Considering each pizza cup base 60 calories, the shredded chicken & cheese about 40 calories, and the rest of the ingredients were vegetables, I’m guessing each pizza had about 150 calories. This is not scientific, but it’s my best guess.

Mini Pizza Cups

An interesting and fun way to present your pizzas. These cute little pizza cups will delight anyone, especially kids. Have your children create their own pizzas, and get creative with the toppings. Perfectly shaped and easy to handle, they make for a great addition to lunch boxes or for picnics and road trips.

Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat) Recipe

Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

I think it’s time that I take a quick break from the highly caloric Iftar snacks I’ve been posting about recently, and share a favorite healthy recipe. This Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat) is a traditional Pakistani Iftar Staple. We love munching on it throughout the year, but it’s especially nice in the summer after a long day of fasting. Known as a salad in the West and a savory snack or “Chaat” in the East. This low-fat dish has traveled a long way from Pakistan to make its way onto Iftar tables in South Asia and lunch/dinner tables across the rest of the world.

Spicy Chickpea Salad (Chana Chaat)

The acidic and tart flavors of tamarind chutney, the sweetness of the apricot chutney and the cooling taste of mint chutney balances the palette out immaculately. A well made Spicy Chickpea Salad (or Chana Chaat) will enable you to taste all these flavors independently with each spoonful.

Playing around with food textures is also an important part of cooking, and creating this dish gives you that freedom with the crunchy onions, juicy tomatoes and soft chickpeas. Explore the art of South Asian cooking with this simple, low fat yet palette-exciting recipe.
