Guest Post: Sausage Karhai

We have yet another yummy recipe from a regular contributor in Karachi, Rabeea - and thistime it's a spicy dish that works great as a midnight snack, or even as quick dish for dinner/lunch:

Ingredients:

  • 1 packet of chicken sausages (cut into slices)
  • 250 gms tomatoes (chopped)
  • 4-5 green chilis (chopped)
  • 1/2 tsp red chili powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 2-3 tbsp shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 tbsp cooking oil


Heat the oil in a wok and add all the ingredients apart from the cheese. Cook uncovered on a medium flame until the tomatoes form a paste. Now add the cheese and cook for another 2-3 mins or until the oil rises to the top. If the sause is too sticky, adding a bit of milk helps.

For garnish, sprinkle chopped coriander leaves and ground garam masala and serve.

She writes: "I was browsing through your recipes and just remembered the existence of sausages! Here's something Dad and I used to make back when we were in Dubai. I haven't made this in about 7-8 years as sausages aren't easily available out here. And even if I did get them to my place no one would know what they are! I only WISH i could have a bite of this yummy dish again."

Guest Post: Cold Cake

Here's to not only our first guest post, but also our first dessert post, by Rabeea in Karachi, Pakistan:

Cold Cake

Ingredients:
  • 1 packet of Marie Biscuits- crushed but not ground
  • 1/2 cup of finely chopped almonds and hazelnuts
  • 1 tin of condensed milk (approx. 400g)
  • 2 tbs of fresh cream- whipped
  • 1/2 cup of cocoa powder
This is easy and very yummy. Mix together the condensed milk and the cream in a bowl, using a wooden spoon. Slowly add the cocoa powder and stir until smooth. Now add in the crushed biscuits and the chopped nuts and mix well - once the mixture is ready, you'll see more biscuit than chocolate. Roll this mixture up in aluminum foil and freeze. Once it's frozen, remove the foil, slice and serve. Enjoy!
