Back to Basics: Stop cooking your Naan’s the regular way and try this way instead. I promise you will never do it any other way again! Ingredients: 3 cups Pembe Home Baking Flour 1 tsp yeast 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp salt 3 tbsp oil ½ cup natural yoghurt ¾ cup – 1 cup warm milk, or as needed Method: Mix Pembe Home Baking flour, salt, yeast and sugar and then add oil, yoghurt and warm milk and knead into a soft dough. Cover and let it rise until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour. Divide the dough into smaller pieces and roll each into a thin large circle. Wet one side with water and stick the wet side onto the pan. Once you see bubbles form, flip the pan over an open flame until cooked. Spread butter and serve hot! #Ramadan2024 #TikTokCookBook #fyp

Hot & sour chicken soup with leftover chapati noodles? Here’s how you can make it. Method: Slice your left over chapati in thin strips and deep fry until crispy and set aside. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pot and add 1 tbsp chopped garlic and 1 tsp green chillies (optional). Toss and then add 1 sliced chicken breast and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes and then add ½ cup each of shredded cabbage, carrots and bell peppers and stir. Add 3-4 tbsp of dark soy sauce and toss on a high flame for 3 to 4 minutes. Add 4-5 cups of water and let it come to a boil. In a separate bowl, mix 4 tbsp of corn starch with water and stir until dissolved. Pour the corn starch slurry into the boiling soup a little at a time until you achieve the desired thickness. Once you are happy with the thickness, add 1 tbsp of vinegar, stir and take it off the heat. Serve your soup with the crispy fried chapati noodles. ##TikTokCookBook #Ramadan2024

I found this genius idea on the menu of Pizza Hut at the Mumbai airport during my recent travels and had to recreate it. For the pizza dough: Mix 3 ½ cups of Pembe Home Baking Flour with 2 tsp each of yeast, sugar, and salt. Add 1 cup of lukewarm water and 3 tbsp olive oil and mix to form a dough. Knead for 3 to 4 minutes and then set aside to rise until double in size. For the kebab mixture: Mix 500gms of minced meat with 1 small finely chopped onion, 1 egg, coriander leaves, 1 tsp cumin powder, salt to taste and 3 tbsp ginger water. Fill up a piping bag, cut the tip, and set it aside. For the pizza sauce: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil and throw in 2 tbsp chopped garlic and 1 tsp mixed dried herbs. Cook for a minute and then add blended tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 6-10 minutes and set aside. To assemble: Roll out a portion of the pizza dough, large enough to cover your pizza tray and go over the edge. Pipe the kebab mixture along the edge and then fold the dough over it. Pour pizza sauce over the base and then grate mozzarella cheese over it. Add any other toppings if you’d like to. Otherwise, drizzle some olive oil and pop into the oven at 220°C for 20 minutes. Slice and enjoy. #fyp #Ramadan2024 #food

If you’re buying fresh cow’s milk, you have no excuse. Once you make butter at home, there’s no going back. If you make a whole batch, you can separate it into different containers and freeze it, otherwise the fresh butter will last you 2 to 3 weeks in the refrigerator. #tiktok #fyp #food
