Saturday morning breakfast...

Welcome once again to the world of Yemenite cuisine, and more to the point, a very traditional and much-loved Saturday breakfast meal - Jachnun. Not in the least bit healthy, this meal guarantees to leave you patting your stomach (even after a portion much the size of the one in the picture below). But very tasty, especially with the spicy tomato side dish and a boiled egg that has been left in the same Jachnun pot overnight (Jachnun is cooked very slowly all through Friday night). I have to admit, it doesn't look that appetising, but those of us who know, know...and note the lack of cutlery - if you really want to go native, this one is hands only...
