Ramadan pide, is one of the Ramadan staples here in Turkey. It's a traditional soft-leavened Turkish bread. Round or oval and rather flat in form, and having a weave-like patterned crust, Ramazan pidesi is made of wheat flour with yeast and topped with egg glaze and sesame and or nigella sativa seeds.
It is traditionally served for the iftar and sahur meals during the holy month of Ramadan.

With Ramadan starting, everyone is waiting for the moment they get a hot Ramadan pide for iftar (fast-breaking meal) and put butter on it or dip into a hot soup (çorba). Enjoying the enchanting smell before eating the whole piece in a second. 

And seeing a long queue in front of fırın/ public bakery before iftar time to get this delicious flatbread fresh from the oven is a common view. But since the COVID-19 pandemic, people hesitate to go out and no crowd being allowed.
Most public bakery already produces this pide bread before 6 PM and are already wrapped up waiting for people to buy or they will distribute to the neighborhood. 

Baking bread at home has also become more popular these days. During the pandemic, people tend to cook or make anything at home including baking bread.
But for me, baking bread it's not about a trend. I love baking my own bread cause my husband loves to eat homemade bread.

You may remember my previous post of baking No-Knead version of Ramazan pidesi a couple years ago, it becomes my popular post. Check how to make that no-knead version for quick and fail-proof Turkish Ramadan pide here.
For another version, you can check my other recipe here.

We are enjoying the month Ramadan in Muslim world right now. So, we are cooking and baking Ramadan recipes at home. For Turkish, the dinner table (iftar safrası) in Ramadan should always be special. More special than the daily table.
We start the iftar dinner with hurma (date) as our sunnah. Then soup ( turkçe; çorba) as our appetizer. Then we will have an entreé complete with salad as a side dish. Then dessert (tatlı) is served most probably a few minutes after iftar (break the fast) together with tea time sometimes.

Since we had our iftar (break the fasting) full flavors, we serve them in small portions or as a personal preference. And we want our dessert is light.
Just like what I am going to share today. It's a light, creamy yet delish Turkish milk pudding called süt helvası. Süt in Turkish means milk. Helvası from the word "helva" means halvah or sweet/ dessert. This dessert is famous from Bursa, the city I!m living in now.
This dessert is one of a repeatable menu in my house, I made this many times since it's my husband's fave. You can check my previous Süt Helvası here.

Still in Ramazan spirit, wish you my Muslim friends Ramadan Mubarek 🙏
During Ramadan, Muslim households will fast till dusk falls and break the fast with an iftar meal.
In Indonesia mostly we make or buy snacks to enjoy during iftar, we call it Ta'jil (read; taqjeel). Ta'jil itself comes from Arabic language means to fast-breaking, so it has nothing to do with the food. But in Indonesia, the term ta'jil is becoming commonly used as an expression of usually sweet iftar appetizers. Prophet Muhammad s.a.w gave the example of eating dates as the beginning of iftar.

And I hope my post meets you in good, happy, and healthy condition. Please keep yourself and your families safe in this pandemic situation around the globe. Be patient and be safe 💟

First, Ramadhan Kareem to all my Muslim friends around the world. May the spirit of Ramadhan stay in our hearts and illuminate our souls from within.

We are happy can meet Ramadan again this year, but a little sad since this Ramadan we are in an unfortunate situation that makes us stay at home to isolate ourselves from the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Generally, we would have wonderful iftar together with families and friends. We invite each other to have an iftar dinner where beautiful and happy moments are shared.

Iftar, also known as fatoor, is the evening meal with which Muslims end their daily Ramadan fast at sunset. They break their fast at the time of the call to prayer for the evening prayer.

I hope this condition will end up soon and we can have a peaceful life back.

Today I will share our favorite, it calls Beğendili Köfte. Köfte is a traditional Turkish meatball (kofta) made from mincemeat mix with "baharat" or spices. The meat is used commonly beef or lamb or mixes both of them. Köfte is very popular here and everybody's favorite.

Beğendili from the word beğendil, it's an ember-roasted aubergine, finely minced then mixed in a creamy cheesy sauce similar to the bechamel sauce. This dish it's not only widely popular as a restaurant meal but also homemade versions are rich and served at home.

İt's been a long time I didn't post any snack recipe. In fact, I am a "snacking" person. I do love enjoying my afternoon tea /coffee with something that keeps me full until dinner.
And today I will share one of my fave ever, called "Karipap Pusing"

Similar to a Pasty, Karipap is another hugely popular snack in South East Asia. In Indonesia, it is called Pastel with its own twists. It is a snack of Southeast Asian origin. It is a small pie consisting of curry with chicken and potatoes in a deep-fried or baked pastry shell. The curry is quite thick to prevent it from oozing out of the snack.

Karipap Ayam is one of the most popular street snacks across South East Asia. They are truly delicious snacks. Crisp flaky pastry shells filled with a mild chicken and vegetables (potato and carrot mostly) curry.

Roti Canai / Paratha / Roti Maryam, "flying flat bread"

Roti canai (pronunciation tʃanai) or roti cane (pronunciation tʃane) is a type of Indian-influenced flatbread found in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore. It is often sold in Mamak stalls in Malaysia; also in Malay, Minangkabau and Aceh restaurants in Indonesia. It is known as roti prata in Southern Malaysia and Singapore and is similar to the Indian Kerala porotta. It is also found throughout Thailand, where it is called "Ro Tee" and is typically sold by Muslims, most often with street carts, and is usually Halal.

In English and in Chinese, roti canai is sometimes referred to as "flying bread" (飞饼 fēibǐng), a term that evokes the process of tossing and spinning by which it is made. In Chinese, Roti canai is originally called 印度煎饼 "yìn dù jiān bǐng", which means Indian pancake.

Traditionally roti canai is served with dhal (lentil curry) or any type of curries, such as mutton or chicken curry. However, the versatility of roti canai as the staple lends itself to many variations, either savory or sweet, with a variety of toppings and fillings, which includes eggs, banana, sardines, and onion. In Thailand, it is usually served sweet - typical fillings include condensed milk, peanut butter, jam, and nutella, without the curry.

Roti canai commonly is consumed with curries, as a dipping sauce or poured upon the roti. Variations of curries include lentil, vegetables, mutton, beef to chicken curry. However, as a staple food, the versatility of roti canai has enabled the cook to create some new recipes and derivatives with variations of toppings and fillings, either savory or sweet. One of the characteristics of roti canai and its derivatives is that it can be eaten with the hands, without the need for utensils. This makes it a convenient dish to consume while being filling. This characteristic makes it a dish of choice as breakfast or as late-night supper.

In Indonesia, roti canai is often called as "roti cane", "roti konde" or "roti maryam". and usually served with Kari Kambing (mutton curry). It is derived from Indian cuisine and came into Indonesia via the influx of Muslim Indian migration to Aceh Sultanate in Northern parts of Sumatra circa 17th century, and later to the rest of Dutch East Indies in early 19th century. Roti canai is more prevalent in Sumatra, especially in Aceh, North and West Sumatra. Roti cane has been adopted within Malay cuisine of Sumatra, Aceh cuisine, and Minangkabau cuisine. Consequently, there are Malay, Aceh, and Minangkabau restaurants that serve roti canai with mutton curry in Indonesia that are operated by ethnic groups other than Indians. This Indian-origin dish has been well-integrated into Aceh cuisine that it has been considered as theirs.
