Hereβs my recipe for the most refreshing perfect summer salad.
Itβs inspired by a dish I had whilst in turkey last year.
The hydrating, refreshing chunks of watermelon and cucumber pair so perfectly with the fatty creamy feta cheese, and pops of zesty mint and lemon

1. In a large bowl add 1 cup of cubed watermelon, 1 cup of cubed Turkish cucumbers and 1 cup of cubed feta cheese
2. Add a small handful of finely chopped fresh mint leaves
3. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, the juice of half a lemon and 1.5 tsp honey
4. Add 3/4 tsp dried mint, 1/4 tsp salt and 1 tsp finely ground black pepper
5. Mix together well and refrigerate for minimum 2 hours
6. Serve cold and enjoy!

Made by cooking a delicious spiced yakhni full of meaty goodness which is then absorbed into the rice with a load of fried onions.
The delicious bone broth yakhni coats every single grain of rice.
I made this one with lamb, but I have the chicken yakhni pulao recipe up on my feedπ₯°

Hiiiii everyoneπ Alhamdulillah Iβve been getting a lot of love on my desi recipe reels, so I decided to share with you all how I make my mamaβs delicious Pakistani yakhni pulao.
I honestly prefer this to biryani- a homemade delicious chicken yakhni (broth) which is infused into glistening grains of basmati riceβ¦
MY RECIPE:
1. Soak 2 large glasses of basmati rice and set aside
2. To make the yakhni/stock place 1 tbsp whole coriander seeds (sabat dhania), 1 tbsp whole cumin (sabat zeera), 1 tsp fennel seeds (saunf), 1 1/2 tbsp whole black peppercorns (sabat kali mirch), 1/2 tsp mixed spice, 4 cloves (laung), 1 stick of cinnamon (dalchini) 3 bay leaves (tez pat), 2 black cardamoms (bari elaichi) and around 10 green cardamoms (elaichi) in a large pot
3. Add in 1 whole bulb of grated garlic (lehsan) and 2 inches of grated ginger (adrak)
4. Add in 4 glasses of water, 4 tsp salt (namak) and a whole cut up chicken
5. Place on the stove, bring to a boil, simmer for 15-20 mins. The chicken should not be too soft
6. Strain the yakhni through a sieve into a bowl. Remove the chicken and set aside for later
7. Taste the yakhni- it should be slightly on the salty side because it needs to flavour the rice
8. In a large pot place 1/3 cup ghee and add in 2 large chopped onions (pyaz)
9. Brown the onions until they are dark like in the reel (will give the pulao a lovely colour)
10. Add in the chicken, 1/2 tsp zeera and a little stock and brown it for a few mins
11. Add around 3 glasses of the yakhni
12. Add 2 glasses of soaked basmati rice
13. Let the pulao come to a rolling boil - until the rice is visible on the surface and small bubbles are in the middle
14. At this point place the lid on and steam on the lowest heat for 20 mins
15. Remove the lid and enjoy!

I hadnβt done any sugar cookie art in a while, so I felt like being creativeπ₯ I used my favourite sugar cookie recipe, made a paper stencil, baked the cookie and drew the outline roughly with food colouring and a toothpick. I then made royal icing, coloured it and spent about an hour creating this πππ very laborious, but also fun to ice all the little details π€ͺ
