Umm Ali (Egyptian Dessert)
#post15 - This is a traditional Egyptian dessert that is very popular in all Middle Eastern countries, especially during Ramadan. It is made of puff pastry / croissant and is almost similar to bread pudding, but without any eggs. It is very simple to prepare where all you need is to pour thickened milk over some shredded croissant, followed by some cream, coconut and chopped nuts. It is then baked till done. Can be enjoyed hot or cold. I prefer the latter one. So here is my version where I added some khoya and flavoured it with cardamom powder and some rose water instead of the usual vanilla essence that is used. #goldenapron

Kahk (Egyptian Dessert) Kahk (Egyptian Dessert)
I learned this recipe from my Egyptian friend's grandmother, who is a great cook.Since the dough is not very sweet, it's better to sprinkle on a lot of powdered sugar.Kahk without any filling tastes great also.Ghee is a butter that is made from milk fat from water-buffalo. I bought it at a wholesale market in Tokyo. Since cardamom has a strong smell, it's best to use it in moderation. Recipe by pumpkinpot

Bengali Restaurant Style Falooda/Falooda (Dessert) Recipe 🍜 Bengali Restaurant Style Falooda/Falooda (Dessert) Recipe 🍜
#bcamFalooda/falooda is a very popular cold and sweet beverage/ dessert dish for summer and great for Iftar during Ramadan in my Country Bangladesh.Falooda is very refreshing. Traditionally it is made with lots ingredients. here I have tried to make it simple and easy for homemade version to keep it original flavour.You can use or add fruit by your choice, just pick sweet one. Rose essence goes well with this recipe, though you can use Rooh Afza which will give you a royal flavour and colour together.If you don’t have any of these liquid to use just boil milk with 1 cardamom pod. However, it's my most favorite dessert. Am sure you will also enjoy it . Take LOVE from BANGLADESH. 💙
