Health Benefits of Eggplant

While many fruits and vegetables are important for good health, eggplant appears to play a special role in the treatment and prevention of a number of very serious conditions. This article describes ways in which eggplant can be used to improve both the length and quality of your life.

1. Weight Loss

As stated above, eggplant contains high amounts of fiber, making it a great food in the fight against cancer. But, the fiber found in eggplant has other uses–namely, its ability to be a useful tool for people who are trying to lose weight. Fiber is a relatively “bulky” food, meaning that is takes up a lot of room in the stomach. Therefore, by eating eggplant in a salad or appetizer before a meal, dieters are likely to have a greater feeling of satiety, and generally eat fewer calories (thereby achieving a substantial weight loss with time). In addition, fiber is slow digesting, and takes a long time to move from the stomach to the digestive tract. Because of this, the eggplant keeps dieters feeling full for a longer period of time–and therefore, they won’t be as tempted to snack between meals, which will again aid in weight loss.

2. Better Skin Tone

Finally, eggplant contains a high amount of water–and similarly, aside from fat and bone, our bodies are composed of almost primarily water. Water has important roles in a variety of pathways through the body, but has been found to be especially important in the maintenance of healthy skin and hair. Individuals who are dehydrated are more likely to exhibit hair that is thin, dry and has split ends, along with skin that appears to be flaky, dry, with a greater number of lines and wrinkles. Consuming adequate amount of water through either water itself or through food items such as eggplant can not only improve the quality of your hair and skin, but also the general performance of your body. For best results, eat the eggplant raw–research has found that cooking it removes some of the water that is so beneficial.

Ingredeint for baanjan bourani food:

2 large eggplants
2 sliced tomatoes
1 sliced green bell pepper
6 tbsp. oil

Tomato Sauce:
1/2 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground coriander seeds
Yogurt Sauce: Chakah
1/2 cup plain thick yogurt - water may be removed
1/4 teaspoon crushed garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt Granish
1 teaspoon crushed dry mint leaves
Mix the yogurt sauce ingredients and keep aside

Direction:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Peel eggplant and slice into 1/2-inch round pieces.
Add 4 tbsp.oil in a large frying pan and brown eggplant over medium heat.
Season a large baking dish with the rest of the oil, and layer with eggplant, sliced tomatoes and green pepper.
Mix together all ingredients for tomato sauce. Pour sauce on top of eggplant in baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.
Mix together all ingredients and bring it out on the plate then pour the yoghurt sauce on the top of baanjan bourani and decorate it well with some mint. Here we go the baanjan bourani dish is ready to serve wow.

Middle Eastern food recipe ( Afghan Sabzi or Spinach)

09 09 2012 15:22:51 +0000

Food in afghanistan "sabzi":

Sabzi is an Afghan spinach. It is not very special but it can't be missed. Afghan food sabzi is a simple and very flavorful vegetarian dish that you can eat with challaw (white rice), or nan - flat bread and yogurt. In fact, I had sabzi with yogurt and pita for dinner last night. It's a great source of iron and other nutrients. Afghans love to eat Afghan food sabzi with lamb but in this post I will share a meatless version for my vegetarian friends.

Health benifits of spinach:

Here are reasons why spinach should find its way into your grocery bag.

Immunity

One cup of spinach contains over 337% of the RDA of vitamin A that not only protects and strengthens "entry points" into the human body, such as mucous membranes, respiratory, urinary and intestinal tracts, but is also a key component of lymphocytes (or white blood cells) that fight infection.

Skin

The high amount of vitamin A in spinach also promotes healthy skin by allowing for proper moisture retention in the epidermis, thus fighting psoriasis, keratinization, acne and even wrinkles.

Ingredients

6 oz green onions (use entire onion, white and green parts, chopped
1 tsp. ground fenugreek (optional)
2 lbs. frozen, chopped spinach, not defrosted
1 tbsp. dried dill
2 tsp. ground coriander
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. lemon or lime juice

Afghanistan food recipes sabzi:

In a large deep pan heat the oil on medium- high and saute the onions until tender, about 7 minutes. Add the fenugreek and cook for another minute. Add the frozen spinach and cook on medium heat, stirring regularly, until it defrost and the liquid comes to a boil (about 15 minutes). If the defrosted spinach does not produce any liquid, add a few tablespoon of water to the pan. Once the spinach boils, add the remaining ingredients. Stir thoroughly and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the liquid has decreased. Keep an eye on pot so it doesnt dry out. If it does, just add little water. And the afghan food sabzi is ready to eat.

About Afghani food, Ashak

20 07 2012 14:10:29 +0000

Ashak:
Ashak is a very famous and delicious food of Afghanistan. And it is a kind of food which is good for vegetarian people.
Things needed for Ashak are:
1 lb flour
4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 egg
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb. finely chopped leeks
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
16 ounces Greek fat-free yogurt
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, finely chopped
1 lb. ground lamb
1/2 cup tomato juice
Kosher salt and black pepper

Instruction about how to make Ashak:
First sift the flour and 1 spoon tea salt into the bowl. Make a well in the center and add egg and 1 tablespoon olive oil, slowly add ½ cup of water then knead thoroughly to form smooth dough. Then keep the dough for half and hour. After that divide the dough into two balls, cover with a damp cloth and let sit for 1 hour. Now make ready the stew for it till 1 hour finishes, heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in the wok. Add the onions and cook until golden, about 5 minutes then add the meat. Cook until the meat is brown; add the tomato juice, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the sauce is thick and oily. This should be between half and one hour. Meanwhile, make the filling; combine the leeks, 1 teaspoon salt and the cayenne. Knead until the leeks begin to soften and add tablespoon oil. Roll out one of the dough balls on a lightly floured surface to 1/16" or as close as you can get. (The author warns that thicker dough will be tough; I did not find this to be the case, even though my dough was far from perfectly thin.) Using the pint glass (or biscuit cutter, if you have such a thing), cut rounds of the dough out. Put 1 - 2 teaspoons of the leeks on one half of the round, then fold the other half on top of it and pinch closed.
Repeat until you've used up all the dough. I will advise against re-rolling the scraps more than once; that does make the dough tough. Is your pasta water boiling? Good. Add the vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and pasta to the pot and boil 8 – 10 minutes, meanwhile, mix the yogurt with the garlic and the last teaspoon of salt. Spread half the yogurt onto the bottom of your serving vessel.
When the ravioli are done, use the slotted spoon to remove them and put them on top of the yogurt, top with the rest of the yogurt and sprinkle with the ground coriander. Use the slotted spoon to evacuate the meat to the top of the yogurt. Serve and enjoy!

A shepherd boy who lied

20 05 2012 01:49:58 +0000

Once a upon a time in a small village in Turkey there was a shepherd and his name was Ahmad .He had a flock of sheep and he used to take the sheep to the hill near to his village every day to eat the grass. The shepherd used to make fools of the village people every day by shouting : “The wolf is attacking us and has eaten my sheep . “ But when the poor people of the village were going to rescue him, he started laughing and said: “I am making fools of you “
However, one day the wolf suddenly attacked. He killed and ate some of the sheep. When Ahmad started shouting for help, the people in the village turned a deaf ear towards him and said to each other: “The shepherd is trying to make fools of us again”. And everybody went back to their work. When Ahmad returned back to the village without his flock of sheep and told the story, the people of the village became sad and advised him not to tell lies again. They said: “Never try to make fools of us again and done tell lies. If something really happens people will not come to help you and they will never believe you. “
After that Ahmad never told a lie again and they all lived happily ever after.

Semara is a girl and she got her education in very difficult. She is only five when she left for Pakistan and migrated. However she was very small but very keen to get good education, so she is started to finding out a good Afghani school in Pakistan but unfortunately she couldn't. finally she join in Pakistani school and try very hard to study and learn her lessons even though she didn't know their language but she always did her homework on time , and never missed the lesson , she made a good schedule for her studding . She was soon getting the top grades in every subject and her teachers were very happy with her. Her parents were also proud of her.

After she finish her school, she came back to her own homeland in Afghanistan and joined in the university. Beside of her University she heard about the Film Annex and she is very interested to join them and if possible make some money to support her education.

Now she is very happy with her education and also happy for Film Annex because it’s a very good and easy way for Afghan girls to join them by setting at home and making some money.
