RAMADAN FROM AROUND THE WORLD EP 8 - PALESTINE 🇵🇸 Welcome to Ramadan from around the world! My brand new series exploring the different food and traditions during the holy month. This is the series finale and today were taking a trip to Palestine to make some Maqluba 🇵🇸 Eid Mubarak everyone 🫶🏽 Ingredients (serves 6-8) 8 chicken drumsticks seasoned with salt and pepper 2 eggplants/aubergine 2 potatoes sliced 1 cauliflower sliced 1 cinnamon stick 2 dried limes 2 cloves 3 green cardamon pods 4 bay leaves 600ml chicken stock 2 medium tomatoes 2 cups washed basmati rice Step (1) Slice and sprinkle your eggplants generously with salt, then leave uncovered for 30/60mins. Then pat dry with kitchen towel. Now fry your eggplants, cauliflower and potatoes until golden & crispy. Set aside Step (2) Add some ghee to a large stew pot, then add the cinnamon, cloves, cardamon and bay leaves. Allow to infuse for a few minutes on a medium heat. Then add the chicken drumsticks and cook for 1/2 minutes, until brown all over. Pour in the chicken stock, cover and simmer for 25 minutes. 
Step (3) Remove the chicken drumsticks and then drain, while reserving the broth. Now in a large stew pot, layer the tomatoes on the bottom, followed by the eggplant around the side. Then go in with the cauliflower, potatoes, chicken and washed basmati rice. Pour in the remaining broth. I removed about a cup of the broth to ensure my rice wasn’t too soggy. You want there to be about an inch between your finger and the level of the rice in the pan. Cover and cook on the lowest heat for 25 minutes. Then take off the heat and let sit for a further 25 minutes. Flip and enjoy :) #ramadanrecipes #maqluba #tiktokfood #series #fyp
