Bajre Ke Aate Ki Kebab – The Non Veg Vada Pav

Vada Pav is a very famous snack for Mumbaikers. It has a Vada, which is made of potato, sandwiched between Pav. A great veg snack like by everyone.

At our home, instead of the Vada, we place Mutton Kebab made of mutton mince and bajre ka aata. Add a slice of onion, green chutney, and a few drops of lemon, and it becomes the perfect snack for a great rainy evening. You can have these kebabs without the pav as well.

A very common dish in the Memonese cuisine, it is, I believe, easy to make and very yummy to eat.

Here is the picture of the kebab for your eyes.

Street Food At Home

During the month of Ramadan, the streets of Mumbai turn into food vending machines. Mostly street food, the delicacies are usually either deep fried, tawa fried or grilled.

One of the most liked food during this time is Rolls. Available in various variations of Mutton and Chicken filling, this dish is shallow fried on a big tawa, and goes well with green chutney.

We tried this at home, and it turned out to be amazing. Better than the one that we have on the streets.

Here is a click of the just made Chicken Rolls.

Roll Out The Chicken Spring Rolls

Today, it was a day full of rains. Completely drenched, I visited the famous Bohri Mohalla to buy some stuff for iftaari. During the time of Ramadan, this place is buzzing with people, stalls, and food stuffs.

Somehow I managed to fight and buy my share, and reached home just in time for iftaari. At home, we had Chicken Spring Roll and the normal Onion (kanda) Bhajiyas. It was a good second day of this holy month.

Here is a picture for you guys.

Ramadan – A month to f(e)ast?

Today, 19th June, 2015, we start with our holy month of Ramadan. During this month, Muslims around the world keep fast (roza), give charity, learn to control their nerves, pray namaz and Quran, and lead a simple life. However, over the years, this month has become a synonym for different kinds of food during the iftaari (breaking the fast) and sehri (starting the fast) time.

Every household starts preparing for this month well im advance; and durinf the month, you will get to see various food dishes being prepared at their houses. For the iftaari, we too cook dishes, which are high on calories and very high on taste.

I am very inactive on this blog. My friends told me to keep posting food pictures during Ramadan, and I thought it is a good idea to keep the blog alive. So, here I am, uploading the food pictures. Will try to post it on regular basis.
