Here are some recipes to prepare for your Eid al-Fitr 2024 feast.
Sebai Care
Sevai kheer is a sweet milk-based dessert that is a must-have for Eid in Indian households. Here’s how to make it: Stir-fry vermicelli noodles with ghee. When it turns golden brown, lower the heat and pour in the milk. Add the cardamom and saffron to the milk and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil the seva kheer until the milk is reduced by half. Add chopped dry fruits such as dates, almonds, cashews, pistachios, and raisins. It tastes best when served chilled.
Mutton biryani
Marinate the mutton in curd and oil with basic spices and ginger and garlic paste for at least 4 hours. In a heavy-bottomed pot, sauté the sliced onions and whole spices. Now add the marinated mutton, green chillies, mint and coriander leaves to the pan. Cook for 10 minutes or until meat is tender. In a separate pot, boil water with jeera, bay leaves, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon and salt. Add rice to it and cook until al dente. Once the mutton is cooked, add the tofu. Next, layer the biryani with rice, mint and coriander leaves, fried onions, ghee, and mutton. Repeat the application at least twice. Pour the saffron milk over it, cover with foil and put a lid on the pot. Simmer for another 15 minutes on low heat.
Buna Gosht
Bhuna Gosht is a flavorful mutton delicacy that is a popular dish in North Indian and Pakistani cuisine. Mix mutton pieces with ginger-garlic paste, salt, turmeric, lemon juice and oil. Let stand for 40-45 minutes. Slowly roast the marinated lamb in a heavy pot until tender. Add onions and tomato puree to the roast and cook until a thick gravy forms. Add coriander powder, red chili powder and ginger garlic paste. Simmer until the flavors meld.
