LivingHalal Cooking: An Energy Efficient Way

One aspect of LivingHalal is to appreciate Allah's provisions and not to waste.

This is taken from http://www.etheco.com/

If you cook regularly, you can save money by implementing some of these tips:
· Use the kettle to boil water for cooking, instead of heating a pan on the stove. Not only will this be more efficient, but it generally takes less time too
· Covering cooking pans while cooking to prevent heat loss
· Covering the cooker hob with the pan base, if you can see some hob, you're wasting energy
· Use less liquid, things cook quicker that way
· Reheating left-overs in the microwave or on a hob, not in the oven
· Use a pressure cooker if you have one
· Cook 'one pot' meals like stews or soups

HalalRecipe: The Ultimate Green Massage

This is a recipe from Grassroot Organic Restaurant.

Here is a great organic and raw recipe that our customers love and it is
very good for you. We call it "the ultimate green massage."

• Cut the vein out of a head of Lacinato Kale
• Cut the kale horizontally in thin slices and place in a bowl
• Drizzle extra virign olive oil on top, just enough to lightly coat the kale
• Add a pinch of celtic sea salt and massage the kale until it wilts...about two minutes should be enough
• Add the juice of half a lime up to about 1 lime, to taste
• Add about 1-2 table spoons of raw agave nectar and mix again lightly
