Muslims across the UK are halfway through the holy month of Ramadan, which is observed with fasting from just before dawn until sunset.
This means keeping themselves healthy and full with the pre-dawn meal suhoor and evening meal iftar is essential.
From quick and easy masala fish pakoras that can be made in under 30 minutes, to budget-friendly spinach and feta borek at 80p per serving, I’ve come up with six recipes in partnership with Asda to keep you full from sunrise to sunset.
Ramadan favourite: Adana kebab
Nothing completes my Ramadan spread like the mouth-watering Adana kebab – bursting with authentic flavours from Turkey. It sure impresses my family!
Cook time: 1hr 5mins
Serves: 6
Price: £1.87 per serving
Ingredients:
1kg lamb mince
2 onions
1 red bell pepper
4-5 cloves garlic
20g parsley
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp black pepper powder
2 tsp sumac
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp paprika powder
1 tsp chilli powder
2 jalapeño chillies
Method:
1. In a bowl, add the mince along with salt, black pepper, sumac, cumin powder, coriander powder, paprika and chilli powder. Mix everything together and set it aside.
2. In a chopper add the sliced bell pepper, onions, jalapeños and garlic, grind the mixture coarsely and remove its excess moisture by putting in a muslin cloth. Add this mixture to the mince.
3. Next, add finely chopped parsley (alternatively you can use coriander), and make sure there is no excess moisture in the herbs.
4. Mix with your hands for a good 2-3 minutes until everything is combined well.
5. Cover and leave in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, ideally, but at least 30 minutes.
6. Put the kebab meat on the skewers. Dip your hands in water to prevent the kebab meat from sticking to your hands.
7. Put the skewers on a charcoal grill and cook for around 15-20 minutes. Alternatively use the oven at 180C or cook on the stove over a skillet. While grilling, don’t forget to flip each side of the kebab, to keep the juice of the ingredients in the meat.
1. Start by blitzing the biscuits in a processor or crushing them inside a sealed bag with a rolling pin into fine crumbs; transfer them to a bowl.
