lmaooo @ how hungry everyone is. This Ramadhan I'm not making any afur. My mother and father have gone away and no one can force me to do ish :stylin:
Plus I'm like a guest at my aunts so everything is made for me and her cooking is like heaven on earth masha'Allah :blessed:

I can smell from the kitchen right now sambusa, bajiyo, home made donuts, malawax, something smells nice from the oven don't know what but I'm guessing it's lasagne or something. YAAAA SALAAAAMMMM :blessed:

I usually prepare afur on weekends or whenever I'm not fasting. Our staple foods for afur are shurbad, sambuuse, quraac/khamiir, and timir. After afur, I don't eat till saxuur. Saxuur changes w/ my mood; some nights I have oatmeal, others (like today) I'll have beer w/ roti, other times I'll have pancakes. As for casho, it's usually bariis. My fam hardly eats baasto during Ramadan. And lastly, there's always fruits, like shamaam, xabxab, honey dew iyo canab for dessert, along w/ custard.

beer/liver never turns out right for me.. That distinct gamey aroma is very difficult for me to get rid of, but somehow when someone else cooks its perfect.. do u marinade it first?

Nope. Don't you cook it w/ vegetables? (onions, bell peppers, jalapenos)
