Blessed Posted October 3, 2007 This is how we make ours, my Mum says that the ghee gives it a richer taste. 1. Heat some ghee ( about a table spoon) in a pan, add a bag of vermicelli. 2. Turn over until brown. 3. Gradually add about a mug full of water boiled in hail and some sugar. 4. Stir until soft. Serve with surbiyaan / biriyaani. Delightful. My family only make it at casuumads but I've some relatives that make it every eid. I'll try Dahias' white version, I love the coconut flavour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salma Posted October 3, 2007 ^^^^ yummy yummy, OMG, cadriyad with biryaani and I can touch the sky LOOL. Ok ppl, both cooking methods of the Cadriyad that zenobia and Kahina said are correct. And its very normal to have differences in foods (from North to South). My experience with cambuulo: I remember when I attended an engagement party and food was served. The place was quite, ladies were calm. Suddenly, I heard ladies shouting and saying " wow, wow , cambuulo, cambuulo. Something Like LONG LIFE cambuulo LOOL. I said what r they talking about? what is cambuulo?. And guess what, one spoon and I felt dizzy, it was too oily and full of sugar. cambuulo and cadriyad. I think they match each others very well In UAE, the local ppl eat it as a breakfast dish in the morning. It's called "Balaleet" but it contains egg.

sheherazade Posted October 3, 2007 ^where have u been!!!?? Zenobia, I tasted your mother's cadriyad recently. It rocked. My mother uses butter. Indians also make sweet dishes out of vermicelli. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STOIC Posted October 3, 2007 Brown, Lol with the Mandazi.... I had an incident with my girlfreind where I couldn't say the word Mandazi in Somali.I think our Somali people call it Quurac or Buur depending on where you came from south or north. What is kiibiista ya mayai called in Somali? I have hard time with naming the Somali food in Somali. And Why is it that caathriyata is served only during Ramathan and Xuuska?

No clue lol,Somalis dont have that,me thinks. I mean,most of their delicatsens are courtesy of rer xamars with out of this world names like Shushumow,macsharo & my favorite of all, I-cun :confused: Dahia? Labda?!

Ms DD Posted October 4, 2007 This cadriyad..I am confused. Is it sweets? if it is, why eat it with biryani? Cant I eat alone as a dessert? anyhow, There are many versions of it mentioned here. For a newbie like me, which one shall start with? and How does it really taste? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malika Posted October 4, 2007 ^^Now I have to drive few miles to go get my fav Indian sweets,Pera,Baafi,Jalebi..alla dareerka! Yes Cadriyad is sweet,yes you can eat it alone as a dessert,but some prefer the sweet an sour taste hence eating it with biryani ,pilau.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-Lily- Posted October 4, 2007 Cooking Farax's are terribly attractive aren't they Ghanima? Mind you, FB said he was finding out for someone so he can't really reap the credit for this... Dahia, Indian sweets look pretty but they are hard to stomach, like Xalwo... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
