Libya Tonight we had Grandma for tea yum yum. But seriously folks we had Grandma to visit and she enjoyed Tabikha Bil Houmus from Libya with us. Carter would like to impart these words of wisdom. "I liked some of my dinner, potato, rice, chicken, but not those beans." Personally I thought this was an outstanding sucess and would recommend this to any one. Once again we forgot take a photo, proabaly not a bad thing as it would not do it justice. Grandma has asked us to post the recipe as she enjoyed it so much. Hey everyone if you try one of the recipes please let us know. Ingredients. This served 5 of us with a take away dinner for Grandma. 1 Tin chick peas tabs Oil 3 Potatoes 1 Onion Parsley Chicken 750 gram 2 Cinnamon sticks Salt and Pepper to taste 2 cups of Water Put everything in frying pan, bring to boil. Return to simmer for 1 hr we returned 13/4 hours later. Serve with rice. Something we did that is not totally authentic but added flavour was 1 tsp of crushed coriander seeds and 1 tsp cumin added. I also added 1 tabs of cornflour to thicken sauce.

Carter will learn to love beans - once he discovers that they're the 'magical fruit', and that 'the more you eat, the more toot'!
Well I had my take away dinner on MOnday night when I got home late from work and then a fuse blew leaving me in the dark until Uncle Bill came over with some fuse wire cos I could not find mine - and yes, I coud have fixed it myself if I had some - then didn't get started on diner until after 7:00. So it was great to heat this up, I had bought some Naan bread to go with it which was yummy. Now it is Wednesday and I am about to cook the cameroon curry with coconut cream and mangoes
