November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

 BismEm



Hey guys, back to some eats after a long time.  This hot & spicy main dish is one of my favorite Pak foods.  Really love it.  It' said to be a "mughlai" dish .. meaning a somewhat rich and dry curry-like recipe that tastes pretty tangy because of the mixture of fragrant spices.  It's generally eaten with nan (Pak flatbread), but goes just as well with fried veggie rice or even lentil rice known as kitchery in Pakistan.  In fact I like it best with kitchery.



Here's how you get started ..

Ingredients

1 kg lamb cut into pieces (can also use chicken if you like)
1 cup beaten plain yogurt
Garlic and ginger paste 2 tbsp
3 to 4 tbsp vegetable oil (canola or corn)
Tomatoes 3 cut into pieces
Onion 1 large chopped coarsely or simply sliced into rounds

If you find the spice mix for Karahi meat in Pak grocery stores, which you might, and if you like it, use that.  Otherwise simply use the following spices:

Allspice powder or Garam masala as called in Pak, 2 tsp
Salt to taste
Chilli powser 1 level tsp (or less if you're scared of it Smiley )
Cumin powder 2 tsp
Corriander powder 2 tsp


Preparation

Mix the meat cubes with the yogurt, garlic paste, garam masala and salt.  Cover and allow to marinate for 2 hours.

Heat the oil in a thick based cooking container on medium flame.  Add marinated meat mixture and fry, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes.

Then add the onions, tomatoes, chilli, corainder and cumin powder and mix well.  Sprinkle some water over the meat, cover, simmer the flame and cook till the meat is tender.  Should take approximately 2 hours.  Keep checking every 15 minutes or so and add more water if needed to prevent sticking and burning. Ideally this dish has a minimal amount of thick gravy.
 
Turn off fire, garnish with chopped ginger and coriander leaves and serve with hot flatbread or rice.

Some people also like adding potatoes (each potato peeled and cut into 3 or 4 large cubes) with this meat dish.  That too tastes nice.  If you wanna add potatoes, put it with the meat about 40 minutes before it's done.

Now enjoy!  Tongue

Hmmmm, this is one delicious dish.  But I generally don't use onion, or just a few rings, otherwise it makes the food somewhat sweet.
