As a rule, as a family, we never break fast outside the home on the 1st day of Ramzan. But this Ramzan, my 'sister from another mother' suggested we leave the city behind and head to Hub for Iftar. And what a wonderful idea it was! We just followed the sun and the sky and broke our fast accordingly.
Iftar in my house is inconceivable without
shorba and hummus. So that's what we packed for our little Hub Ladies Only Iftar Picnic. Check out the spread below:
|
Tick tock tick tock - laying the table |
|
Hummus and some really big peaches |
Each time I ask my mother to give me her hummus recipe, she gives me different ingredients! Looks like I won't be putting up this recipe anytime soon.
|
Best iftar idea so far! Bread, butter and cheese! |
Hyperstar Karachi makes great bread! Couple with butter and cheese and it makes a most satisfying, carb-rich, comfort food experience.
|
Starters complete |
Chips, hummus, bread, cheese, butter, dates and peaches. A good mix of healthy and junk!
|
Ah Shorba! The best thing about Ramzan |
Ramzan would not be Ramzan without this lentil and spagetti soup. I refuse to believe it! You'll find the recipe
here.
|
Roast chicken with potatoes |
No complicated flavors here - slow roasted chicken with onions, garlic and potatoes.
|
Another roast chicken :) |
|
Spinach and Bechamel Sauce Pasta |
I really regret not having eaten enough of this spinach, mushroom and white sauce pasta. But I was just so stuffed!
Ramzan is super prime time for a food blog but I have mostly been in a food coma or horribly sick through Ramzan. Hopefully, I'll be more regular with my blog updates from now on. Ramzan Mubarak!
