Grilled Vegetables with Kofta .

Hello again.

Lunch now!!!!
I took out some kofta from freezer last night, it was an extra amount from last time, so it won’t be enough for all, needs something extra to go with it.
  A quick solution , took out all veggies in fridge to grill them plus a big bowl of salad!

Ingredients and method:
* all sorts of veggies cut to large slices or chunks.
* green onion, garlic, lemon juice and oregano.
* butter and olive oil.
* salt and pepper.

* in a thick cast iron pan (preferably one that’s lined) heat some butter and oil.
* add veggies in turns till tender and stripes show on them.
* mix lemon juice, chopped onion and garlic with oregano, salt and pepper.
*sprinkle all over veggies then leave to simmer for 20-30 minutes on low heat.
* serve with any kind of meat or chicken.
* I made a delicious rocca, mushroom, cherry tomato, walnuts salad with vinaigrette dressing.

Enjoy ♡♥♡♥

PIZZA.

Hello everybody.

I’m pretty sure all kids won’t say no to pizza.specially if coming right from the oven and topped with each member’s taste

To solve this problem and save time at the same time.I bought large rectangular oven trays,I spread the dough and make 3 kinds of pizza toppings .all will be happy and eat it hot at the same time.

One can find many recipies for pizza dough, I usually stick to this one.
You will need:
*1 big spoon instant yeast.
*1 small spoon sugar.
*1 big spoon powdered milk.
*1 cup flour.
*1 cup warm water.
Mix all together till creamy.cover and leave for 10-15 min or till bubbles are formed.then add:
*1/2 cup vegetable oil.
*1/2 cup olive oil.
*5 cups flour.
*1 spoon salt.
*1-1/2 cup warm water.
Knead well for 10 min.leave in a warm place to rise.
This dough is called the 10 minutes dough، cause it does rise quickly and it’s very easy to handle.

As for pizza sauce. I usually mix canned tomatoes, tomato paste, clove of garlic, oregano, basil..then leave to simmer.cool and use.
Toppings are various according to your family’s choices. Today I have mushrooms.black olives.courgettes.I will make 2 small ones..one with za’tar , the other with labaneh, rocca leaves and tomato slices.
Bake the pizza in a well heated oven.add the cheese when it’s almost done not before.then drizzle a bit of olive oil on top before roasting.makes it extra crispy.

Crunchy Chicken!!!

Sunny warm day……..went out this morning to do some errands with mom.. having no clue what to cook…I took out chicken breasts to defrost. .will think of what to do with them when I come back.
I dropped mom home..went to supermarket …bought 3 kinds of potato chips….can u guess why????

Well I got this recipe from my mother in law’s adorable friend Auntie Amira….very very quick and easy….
You simply grind the potato chips in food processer…cut the breasts to slices. .then coat them with the chips ..drizzle with a bit olive oil…then in the oven for half ab hour or till crispy… that’s it!!!
