Diwali Countdown - Gobi Mussallam 【莫卧儿烤全花椰菜】

 

Gobi Musallam is a derivation from the very famous Mughlai dish Chicken Musallam, the chicken is marinated and stuffed with eggs and can be served dry or with gravy. 'Musallam' means whole in Hindi, therefore, just as a whole chicken is cooked in Chicken Musallam, so is the Gobi Musallam. 

The gobi will first be roasted and topped with creamy gravy before baking again, it is a very appealing and tasty dish. Good for party and celebrations!

莫卧儿烤花菜【Gobi Musallam】 源于一道著名的莫卧儿王朝菜，【莫卧儿烤全鸡】- Chicken Musallam，这道烤全鸡是把鸡肉用香料腌制后进行烤制，非常的美味，有的食谱还会在鸡肚里塞上几颗水煮蛋一起烤制，也很美味。 

“Musallam”在印地语里是“整”的意思。所以这道菜做成素食的话，用了整头的花菜代替鸡肉烹制，烤花菜的成品卖相好，看起来非常大气，是个适合聚餐和节庆的美食！

Sweets are part of celebration in Indian culture, we used to buy sweets from "Methai Shop", you could choose different kind of sweets and they charge by the weight, the last few years I have made it a point to make at least 1-2 types of sweets at home for the celebration.

Diwali Count Down -- Kaju Katli (Cashew Burfi) 【印度腰果片】

It will be Diwali in less than 10 days, and I have been thinking of doing a Indian sweets series in celebration of this Diwali.

This is the first sweet in my list -- Kaju Katli, I have no met a person who doesn't like the taste of this sweets, even with my not so sweet Chinese taste buds, this charming sweet's nutty flavour won me over the very first time I tasted it!

再过一个星期就是印度的大节Diwali（灯节）了，传统上是要做很多的小甜点送亲朋戚友的。往年我们都是买点意思意思。今年碰巧老公在灯节前两天要换到他一直很希望进入的公司上班，我工作也相对的比较空闲了。

就计划着做几款小甜点庆祝庆祝。

这是第一款，也是我老公最喜爱的甜点，叫做Kaju Katli，是用腰果（Cashew Nuts）做的，很香甜，有着浓浓的腰果香，很是好吃。

关于灯节的一些说明，Wikipedia上抄来的：

屠妖節（梵文：दीपावली、Dīpāvali；印地语：दिवाली、Diwali；泰米尔文：தீபாவளி、Deepavali）直譯排灯节，也稱萬燈節或印度燈節，是耆那教、印度教與錫克教慶祝「以光明驅走黑暗，以善良戰勝邪惡」的節日，於每年印度曆八月（天蝎宫）裏的第15個滿月日（即公曆10月下旬或11月上旬）舉行^[1][2]。一些佛教信徒也慶祝這個節日。
