November 5: Recipes for a Feast on Muharram
Islamic culture and food is really diverse, and Islamic new year celebrations bring a wide range of dishes together to create a truly incredible feast. You can enjoy this part of Muslim culture and food styling yourself by creating these dishes from recipes, or even purchasing food from local stores.
A popular dish when celebrating is fish. To give it a Middle Eastern twist, you should cook a medium-sized fish with lemon, cloves, turmeric, coriander, olive oil, onions, and potatoes on a hot barbeque. This traditional dish is really easy to make and is bursting with flavor.
Another favorite is Fasulia, which is a beef and green bean stew. This recipe requires you to brown meat with olive oil, adding onions and garlic, as well as crushed tomatoes. With a dash of coriander, salt and cumin, and a few heaped spoons of pepper and allspice, you're nearly ready to go. Add green beans, tomato puree and water as you go, and you'll soon see the sauce thicken to create a great smelling strew that will feed plenty, and you can get all the information you need about the dish from Dishfolio!
