Re: Preparing Afur
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
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
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

Re: Preparing Afur
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.

Re: Preparing Afur
