Hello everybody.
Cold rainy day,the kind that says a soup is extremely a must.
We had a late breakfast so a light lunch was efficient, though my hubby made Shakshouka but I only ate soup,heartwarming and tasty in this weather.
Found this recipe on Pinterest, simple tomato soup with cream and some basil but with a twist, you use a bun as a bowl, remove pulb then add a slice of Gouda cheese, roast a bit in the oven then add your soup.
Hello everybody.
Full eventful day, orders and lunch. Mom and my nephews came by as well, we all had a nice cup of tea with some hot from the oven suborek, filled with cheese. So yummy,we even felt we’re in a Turkish series.
Order included mini kibbeh and in pan, Egyptian cookies and baked Zaynab fingers.
Enjoy your weekend everyone, stay warm seems it’ll be cold and rainy.

Dessert was Apple Strudel, same recipe I did last year, always a success, did one for us as well.A small addition was some custard sauce with it but not the one with egg yolks and cream cause I didn’t have time so I just make simple custard with cream but a bit loose with vanilla and a bit of cinnamon.

our lunch !
Hello everybody.
Tried a new recipe today, loved its name “Broockies ” meaning it’s a mix of both brownies and chocolate chip cookies.
Recipe needed some adjustments specially the chocolates chip dough, it was so soft and flattened when baked, good thing I did one as test first.
End result was really good after adding more flour, I may decrease butter amount next time.
Ingredients and method :
Brownies dough :
Chocolate chip cookie dough.
Make a small ball of each dough then press them gently together to form a cookie shape then line on baking sheet or parchment paper.
Bake in a medium heated oven for 8-10 minutes.
leave to cool then store in a well closed jar.
