1174. Qamr Aldeen Rice Pudding

This dish is the essence of Ramadan in the form of dessert. It is no secret how much we love rice puddings in the Arabian Gulf, which is admittedly a strange thing to say since nary a culture doesn't.

1173. Latte Refrigerator Cake

The kinds of desserts favored in the current Arabian popular culture is a bit strange to my taste. They for the most part fall under two categories: fried and soaked in sugar syrup, or originating from a variety of cans and packaged preserved ingredients. That's not to say they're not delicious; they are! Just not my everyday style is all.

1172. Layered Saffron Chicken and Rice

I tend to avoid recipes with a ton of ingredients, but this one looked so good I thought I would give it a go. Be aware that there are multiple steps and multiple pots and pans to wash later.

1171. Oat Crackers with Lebna Dip

Snacking has developed into a multi billion dollar industry, and we all know what that means. It means that the competition of tasty, addictive, and cheap options is on. This in turn makes us opt of a packet of once-you-pop-you-can't-stop chips over some homemade dip and crackers.

1170. Saffron Flan Cake

Two wonders about this cake should be discussed. Firstly, the type of cake is a small miracle on its own. A standard flour cake batter is spread over the base of a prepared bundt tin. This is the topped with a creme caramel mixture, and popped in the oven to bake.

1169. Whole Fish Rice Turnover

We most certainly do not eat enough fish. When we do, it tends to be a quick something or another that makes us feel virtuous for about an hour and then forget all about incorporating more fish in our diet until next month or so.

1168. Mortadella Cheese Puff

Of course making your own puff pastry is optional when you can easily buy ready made, but when its so easy to whip up a batch, why not make your own? This is a quick comfort food that can be insanely and endlessly customized to what you may have on hand or cravings.

1167. Sushi Sandwiches

A fun and new way to present sushi, giving you three varieties at one go. This can easily be adapted into classic sushi rolls using the same ingredients instead of sandwiches.
