Re: Eat the right food during Ramadan
Be aware of your cooking methods
RAMADAN is often the time when women like to display and share their cooking abilities. Although special recipes are an important part of family tradition, many of them are too high in fat content. You do not have to give up those old favorites - but convert them to healthy ones by following these tips:
Always trim off all excess fat from like removing poultry skin. Choose light meat (breast) instead of dark meat (leg, wing).
Choose low fat foods
Use non-stick frying pans and non-stick sprays rather than oil
Bake, grill or roast foods rather than frying
Cook roasted meat or poultry on a wire rack so that the fat can drip off
Vegetables should be steamed or boiled with as little cream or margarine as possible
When preparing rice, noodles and other grains, season with herbs, spices and broths rather than added fat
Use herbs and spices to add flavour and zest to low-fat cooking. Herbs, such as basil, bay leaf, oregano, or rosemary give distinctive flavours and colours to meat and vegetables. Spices, like cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg enhance the sweet taste of foods, and seasoning blends, such as chili powder, curry powder provide a complex array of flavours.
Avoid taking in too much salt
Use garlic, dry mustard, pepper, onions, mushrooms and tomatoes to add flavour to meat and vegetables.
Add sliced lemon or lemon juice to white meats and fish. (box ends)
"It is also important to follow good time management procedures for Ibada (prayer and other religious activities), sleep, studies, work, and physical activities or exercise. A good balance in the amount of time attributed for each activity will lead to a healthier body and mind in Ramadan," the experts stress.
