It’s not Ramadan without kobeba at our house☪️ I have to admit that I utterly failed at making those pretty golden balls, so this year I went for the pan version and subbed chicken for beef.

⭐️Chicken Kobeba Pan⭐️

1 kilo minced chicken, divided
2 cups bulgur, soaked and drained
2 medium onions, minced
1 TB fresh parsley, finely minced
1 TB allspice (Egyptian or Lebanese)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp dried mint
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 TB pomegranate molasses
Salt
Black pepper
1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 cup pine nuts (optional)
Olive oil

⭐️Recipe⭐️
Sauté one minced onion in a large pan in a little olive oil until translucent. Add 500 grams of minced chicken and sauté for a few minutes. Add half of the salt, pepper, allspice, cinnamon, and all the mint and oregano.

Add parsley, chopped walnuts, raisins & pine nuts (if you like)

Sauté chicken mince until cooked through then add pomegranate molasses and remove from heat.

In a large food processor bowl, add the rest of the raw chicken and bulgur (make sure you squeeze out all the water it was soaked in). Add second onion, salt, pepper, and the rest of the allspice and cinnamon.

Process to a fine paste. Refrigerate for an hour.

Preheat oven to 200 c and lightly oil a 28 cm round pan (I used Pyrex) well.

Press half the mixture of raw chicken mince into the bottom of the pan.

Add a layer of cooked chicken mince on top of the raw layer.

For the top layer, make a ball and put it between two sheets of plastic wrap.

Use a rolling pin to make a round, pan sized circle of chicken “dough” (pretend you’re making a pizza.

Remove top parchment and gently top the kobeba pan with the “circle” like you would with a pice crust.

Gently smooth the top layer to cover the middle one well. You can use lightly oiled fingers to press gently.

Bake for 45 minute to an hour or until the top layer is lightly browned.

Serve with a side of cucumber yogurt dip.

It’s almost the season for the holy month of fas

It’s almost the season for the holy month of fasting for Ramadan.

Fasting has historically been practiced as a way to temporarily abstain from life’s pleasures to get into a mindset of humbleness and gain a spiritual connection with God.

While there has been a fierce debate over the risks and benefits of fasting, what we know so far is that short fasts for healthy individuals are relatively safe and could provide some health benefits.

What we need to talk about is that WHY we fast matters a lot in how “healthy” it is for each one of us.

If you’re fasting to:
❌Starve your body for as long as possible
❌Lose a lot of weight in record time
❌Punish yourself for eating “too much”
❌Deprive yourself of food you love

Then fasting isn’t serving your body or soul.

Fasting for spiritual reasons should be a deeper experience than just abstaining from food.

Fasting for other reasons is something you should ask your health provider about so you can make the best and safest decision for yourself.

And even then, if you find yourself feeling restricted or unhappy, then fasting may not be the healthiest tool for you.
