Seafood near Ajman Beach

Ajman city  Raw fresh Seafood Buffet The food was delicious and I love the appetizers that come on the side, hummus, Baba Ganoush, Pickled vegetables, arugala and whole tomatoes. Just fresh and healthy start to a delicious meal. I wanted to have fresh seafood and my brother suggested this beautiful small place right across from the beach, in Ajman city. We chose fresh seafood pieces from a buffet style table. The drive there was beautiful and i was amazed by the architecture of this city that reflected the persian style and boats added a mystical charm. I recommend to give this city a try whenever you visit UAE. Sides that are usual in any arabic restaurant Garlic chile mussels, prawns and calamari Grilled garlic lemon fish Sunset at the beach So close :) View from Seafood

Brown Lentils aka Kaali Daal (Pakistani way)

In Pakistan, dal is a main dish and the sides for this hearty dish include steaming hot basmati rice, fresh off the stove phulka (light roti), tandoori naan and paapar (crispy crackers). The condiments include achaar, chutney and pickled onion salad. Pakistani way of cooking this daal makes it creamy and goes very well with spicy BBQ meat. Note: I soak my dry lentils for minimum of 2 hours. Ingredients: 1.5 cups of Brown Dal then soak it 1/3 cup chopped red onions 1 tsp garlic/ginger paste 1 tsp cayenne powder 2 tsp of salt 0.5 tsp turmeric powder Tempering ingredients: 1/4 cup butter 1 tbsp cumin seeds 10 black peppercorns 3 garlic cloves Method: I used my instapot to cook the daal. I added daal, onions, cayenne, salt, turmeric, ginger/garlic paste and 3.5 cups of water. I used the pressure cook option for 15 mins and then let it rest for 5-7 mins before I pressurized the pot. In  a different pot I added butter and ...
