Happy Muslim Mama: Iftar At My Favourite Uncles Place.

As I had managed to avoid fried food for the week, I thought I would treat my family to a traditional Pakistani Ramadan fry-up today (samosa’s, pakora’s, spring-rolls etc). My favourite uncle went one better and invited us to share iftar with him.All the traditional favourites were there: both vegetable and meat samosa’s, lovely soft pakora’s, chicken sheesh kebabs, fruit chaat and dhai bhalle.

After the maghrib prayer we were treated to pilau rice and chicken curry and I was pleased that the kids ate well mash’Allah despite two cases of painful ear-infection (now receding) and Gorgeous’s nasty cough which is making him grumpy (thankfully he has now conked out in my lap and I can go pray taraweeh).
