Yup, for the first on the list we have ketupat, food lovers. Ketupat is really
famous in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. It is a diamond-shaped rice cake. The rice is cooked,
compressed, and wrapped in woven coconut leaves. Ketupat is a perfect substitute for rice
when you are eating Chicken Opor, Sambal Goreng, Satay or rendang. Preparing ketupat
may take some time given that you would have to weave the ketupat before filling it with rice.
However, if you have the time, you could prepare the ketupat together with your family,
food lovers. If not, you could easily get it online! Make sure to place your orders early!
Eid al-Fitr celebration is definitely not complete if we don’t eat Ketupat!

Haleem Food lovers,
among the classic Eid al-Fitr recipes from South Asia, you’ll find variations of this spiced, thick
stew. Haleem is made by soaking grains like wheat and barley overnight, then boiling and mixing them
with a meat gravy to create a paste-like texture. Haleem is commonly served in Pakistan, India, and
Bangladesh, and regional variations may contain dried fruits and nuts. It can also be topped with
lime, onions, and fresh coriander. Haleem is an ancient tradition thought to have originated from
the dish known as harees, which is recorded in a cookbook dating from the 10th century.
All Buttery Cookies The one that is so much popular,
it's all about cookies, food lovers. Many cultures throughout the Muslim world prepare cookies to
mark the end of Ramadan. While there are dozens of varieties (even within the same cuisines),
they all share a similar characteristic: a rich, buttery dough that just melts in your mouth.
In Syria and Lebanon, they’re known as maamoul and filled with walnuts or date paste. Further
south in Palestine, locals wax poetic about ghraybeh, which features pine nuts or almonds.
Iraqi Muslims nibble on klaicha during Eid al-Fitr, while Egyptians relish their
honey-filled kahk. Of course, you can’t choose just one variety to love, food lovers. Trust me!
Baklava Next, Baklava
has taken the spot, food lovers. This dessert is often associated with Greek cuisine in the U.S.,
but its origins are said to lie in the Ottoman Empire, which was based in modern-day Turkey.
Regardless of where you believe baklava originated, the contemporary version is
enjoyed throughout the Levant, Middle East and Balkans. Thin layers of pastry called
phyllo in Greek and yufka in Turkish are layered with butter, nuts, syrup and sometimes honey.
The resulting pastry is crisp, crunchy, rich and oozing with sweetness.
Lapis Legit It’s fact that Indonesia
has the largest Muslim population in the world, food lovers. The nation’s diverse ethnic groups
and cultural influences have all contributed to Indonesian cuisine. One distinctive dessert from
the archipelago is the elaborate treat known as lapis legit, or spekkoek. This
cake is one legacy of the Dutch colonial period with ingredients and a flavor profile
that have evolved over the years. This eye-catching dessert is time-consuming to make,
requiring at least eighteen layers, not to mention lots of butter, sugar, egg yolks,
and a spice blend of cardamom, cinnamon, clove, and more. There’s a reason it’s saved for special
occasions like Eid al-Fitr! So, you want to serve it one during the celebration day, right?
