Hello everybody.
Had a big dinner yesterday so I have too much food left.
A small side dish was the same eggplant salad I did once before but I added some Ricotta Cheese from the ones my cousin brought me from Rome on top, yummy yummy.
I also did fresh mushroom soup from the pack of dried ones, again yummy.

Hello everybody.
Too hot to cook today and nobody gave me any answers about what they want so I did what I found.
End result was some okra in olive oil with garlic, onions and tomato and no meat, vegetarian style. Then I decided to do some stuffed mushrooms with garlic, coriander, cheese, breadcrumbs salt pepper and chili, and since I have some courgette flowers that I intended to fry I stuffed them same as mushrooms and all together in the oven.
Result was super, all gone in minutes
light nice lunch.

Long hot day,had to go to Roya TV again on such very short notice so I hadn’t enough time to cook.
A quick resolution, passed by the butcher on my way home and got fresh ground meat,then to the bakery for fresh pitta bread.Mixed meat with grated onion,tomatoe,chili pepper, garlic, some burgul,salt and spices.
Stuffed it in pittas,brushed with olive oil and into the oven till crispy.Loveliest 3arayes ever.
Excellent choice in this weather specially with some yogurt.
yummy yummy.

Hello everybody.
Had no clue what to cook though we do have some leftovers but not much.
Went out for some shopping for tomorrow’s lunch at Mom’s,idea struck me when I saw the neat clean wings in chicken fridge, Rania’s wings recipe, she posted them few weeks ago so it’s a good day to try them specially that they’re my youngest favorite and I got some sausages and sauteed them with onions, garlic and olive oil.
Ah almost forgot, did some carrot soup on the side, good in this cold day.
Wings recipe is very easy, here’s its steps :
# marinate wings in lemon and spices.
# dust them all over with equal amounts of flour and semolina.
# keep in freezer for 30 minutes.
# deep fry afterwards.
# melt 3/4 cup of butter with one Tabasco bottle and /or BBQ sauce then dip wings when done in the sauce till all covered.
That’s it,fatty and rich as Zaid loves them but definitely delicious.
Hello again.
Lunch was a first trial, just saw this recipe on Pinterest last night and couldn’t wait till morning comes out to make it, looked so interesting and exactly that’s what it turned out.
You can find lots of versions of this dish but all have the same principle, you simply add whatever you want of veggies,meat,chicken or sausages to raw pasta ,add herbs,salt pepper,oil and water then leave to cook till done !! that’s it.
Ingredients and method:
* chopped courgettes,mushrooms,onions,garlic, cherry tomatoes,chives,basil and black olives.
* 1 pack pasta.
* salt, pepper, oregano and some olive oil.
* 4 1/2 cups water.
* Note: I added a cube of chicken stock also.
* some cream or milk if you like added when pasta is done.
* Parmesan cheese upon serving.
* Put all ingredients together in one pan then add water.
* boil then leave to simmer on low heat for 45-60 minutes or till all done.
* add cream and cheese then serve.
all ingredients.
Absolutely amazing,everyone should try it.
yummy result.
