Louise Hendon | June 3

I feel like the weekend always zooms past, and even though I seem to spend a large portion of it cooking, I’m always left scratching my head as to what I should eat! This Sunday morning, after lugging back a bunch of groceries, I found myself hungry but yet bereft of any quick and easy foods. So, after perusing through my refrigerator, I reached the decision that a quick scramble with some eggs and veggies would be a good (and more importantly, QUICK) solution. Also, I had just picked up some fresh berries so they would be perfect as “dessert.”

I pulled out the veggies from my fridge – 4 baby bella mushrooms, a 1/4 cup red bell peppers I had left over from a previous cooking session and a handful of spinach leaves. I also spotted some left over deli ham. So, I chopped everything up, dropped a knob of butter into the frying pan and started sautéing it all.

Meanwhile, I quickly whisked 3 eggs and dumped them into a different frying pan with some butter. The trick for great tasting eggs is NOT TO OVERCOOK THEM!

To prevent overcooking, but also to have them be cooked in a reasonably quick time, I set the heat on medium, and kept on stirring, making sure the eggs were stirred up as soon as some got stuck to the bottom of the pan. It’s a bit labor intensive, but it makes for much better scrambled eggs.

After scrambling was complete, I turned off the heat, seasoned the eggs with a bit of salt and pepper and stirred in the sautéed veggies and deli ham.

Eggs Poached in a Spiced Tomato Sauce with Ghee

Eggs Poached in a Spiced Tomato Sauce with Ghee [Shakshouka]

Shakshouka kind of looks like an egg pizza, doesn’t it? The combination of eggs and fresh ripe tomatoes is refreshingly awesome. Roby and I eat this popular middle eastern dish all the time because it’s easy to make (one-pan meal) and it’s super tasty.

Shakshouka is made by poaching eggs in a spiced tomato sauce. It’s the perfect any time meal.

When you make this dish, start by cooking onions until they turn golden and then add garlic, serrano pepper and red bell pepper. Once that’s nice and soft, add tomatoes and simmer until the sauce is nice and thick. Spice that sauce and gently crack eggs into your skillet. If you’re trying to make the dish look fancy, crack your eggs in a bowl and then gently slide them into the skillet. This way if you’re clumsy and break a yolk, you can just use another egg (and eat the broken egg yolk egg separately). Cover your skillet until the eggs are cooked to your liking, sprinkle with a little cilantro and devour.

That’s all yolks!

Cooking the lamb

Take a deep sauce pan and add water into it. When water will start boiling add the lamb into it and boil lamb with salt, turmeric and a pinch of little bezar spice for next 45 minutes. Remove lamb from the stock and keep apart. Reserve the stock for preparing the rice.

In order to prepare gravy, heat milkio’s ghee in a large saucepan, and start sautéing onions until the onions become golden brown. Now add garlic, ginger, and green chilies and sauté them until the ingredients get tender and a little brown in color. Now add bezar spice, turmeric, crushed cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves and continue sautéing the mix on low heat for 3-4 minutes. Add tomato paste, curry leaves and half of the chopped fresh coriander. Now continue cooking on low heat for further a minute. Add lamb to it and season with salt.

To prepare rice, boil rice in large saucepan with 2.5 liters of water until all the water is absorbed. Then add the already prepared lamb stock and cook until all the stock gets absorbed in the rice. Spoon Milkio’s ghee over and keep aside.

Now spoon lamb and gravy on top of the rice and garnish with the remaining coriander. Cover the lid and cook for 10 minutes on low heat. Remove from heat and set rice aside. Garnish with sautéed split peas and bezar spice. Remove from heat, sprinkle with rose water and saffron. Serve hot and enjoy the delicacy.

AL Harees Using Oatmeal and Ghee

Al Harees Using Oatmeal and Milkio’s Ghee

“HAREES” is a delicious meat based non-veg dish, highly popular in UAE during Ramadan. However, this Ramadan staple can be cooked anytime. It’s healthy, tasty, and extremely easy to cook, a porridge, which also works as a filler food. By adding oatmeal in it, you can increase its health benefits in a natural savory way. One of the great advantages of cooking Harees is your liberty to choose the meat: you can cook Harees with lamb, mutton, beef, as well as with chicken.

Ingredients

Oatmeal: 3 cups
1 small onion: finely chopped
Cinnamon: 1 small stick
Water: 1.5 liters (6 cups approximately)
Salt: as needed
Black pepper: 1/4^th teaspoon
Cinnamon powder: 1/2^nd teaspoons
Milkio’s Traditional Ghee: 4 tablespoons.
Meat: chicken/lamb/beef (as opted)

Instructions for cooking

In a large pot, add the meat of your choice, and then add sliced onion, cinnamon stick, and water. Bring the mix to boil and cook continuously until it becomes tender. This is the stock you have prepared, and once prepared, keep it aside.

Remove meat/chicken from the broth and finely chop the meat/chicken.

Now using a strainer, you need to drain the prepared stock into a large pot. Add some ghee in the pot, let it be heated till it becomes completely translucent. It’s time to add shredded meat/chicken, the 3 cups of Quaker oats, salt, pepper, and cinnamon in the melted ghee. Keep on stirring using a whisk. Add more water if necessary but in slow process, not at a time. Bring the broth to boil and keep on stirring in every 5 to 10 minutes. You may add more boiling water if necessary. You need to cook for about 40-45 minutes. Now you can add 1-2 spoonful Milkio’s Ghee, stir, and then serve the dish.

(Note: Be attentive while cooking Harees. You need to stir the item in every few minutes so that it cannot get stuck to the pot and get overcooked. The oatmeal content in Harees is prone to get overcooked easily, so you have to be extra careful.
