This marinade for the steak is A-mazing! The papaya paste really tenderizes the meat and all the flavors works so well together. I decided to pair it with the viral TikTok ramen and boy was this a delicious meal. I did end up putting my own spin on the ramen by reducing the amount of…

Bihari Kabob
Bihari kabob will always be associated in my mind with my sisters wedding. It was one of the dishes my mom made for her mehndi and I knew I had to recreate. I loved how easy this was, where you just marinate it and then bake it ….that’s it! It’s even easier if you buy…
Tteokguk (Korean Rice Cake Soup)
Korean rice cake soup that’s traditionally eaten on Seollal, the Korean new year. It lands on the first day of the Lunar calendar and it usually coincides with the Chinese new year. I never tried it or heard of it until Moudi introduced me to it. We came across this recipe on maangchi.com while we were…
Easy Instapot Haleem
This is by far one of my favorite recipes ever. There’s something comforting about a hearty bowl of haleem. If you’ve never had it…you’re missing out! Growing up my mom would only make this for Eid ul Fitr (a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan). So I’ve always associated it with a special…
Wagyu beef pretzel bun sliders
I was looking on Pinterest for a burger recipe and came across the Chunky Chef’s coffee rubbed burgers with a Dr Pepper BBQ sauce and was instantly intrigued. I decided to adapt it by using a a dry rub with coffee and harissa and using store bought BBQ sauce to make things easier. And it…
Korean Beef Samosas
Now this is totally a Korean/Pakistani fusion recipe. I decided to make this Korean hoisin beef filling and place it into a samosa and the result was fantastic! A new twist to the regular schmegular Pakistani samosas. I mean, nothing against the regular potato or beef samosas but sometimes you want a little something different…
Hawaiian Burgers
Now I’m one of those people who loves pineapples…like so much so that I absolutely LOVE it on pizza and burgers and boy does this not disappoint! It has these caramelized pineapple rings as well as caramelized red onions on top of a juicy burger….if you’re a fan of pineapples as much as I am…
Korean BBQ
One of our favorite dinner ideas to make is Korean BBQ at home. I put everything on this large lazy Susan with all the accompaniments and it’s super fun and delicious to eat. I love adding a side of mixed glazed vegetables, some fried rice, these super yummy potatoes called gamja-bokkeum, fresh lettuce cups and…
Asian Glazed Lamb Chops
I can’t say enough good things about these Asian glazed lamb chops! They are great for a BBQ or even on a random Tuesday night dinner. They are my holy grail..go to…delectable lamb chops. We love having them as one of our meats for our Korean BBQ nights, and let me tell you…they are always…
Jamaican beef patties
I absolutely love Jamaican beef patties. The first time I had them was at an Al Maghrib event and I couldn’t stop thinking about them. I knew right then and there that I wanted to try and make them at home. I found this recipe by Chef Andre Fowles and adapted it to the ingredients…
