Answer 1

hope this helps (yes please provide rice because muslims eat with rice)

german onion pie

4 thick slices of lamb meat or chicken, diced (it should be bacon but muslims don't eat pork, i know beef theyd o but not all)
2 cups peeled and chopped yellow onion
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup sour cream
1 tblsp flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 9-inch pie shell, unbaked

Preheat oven to 400 degrees f

Saute bacon. Drain most of the fat from the pan. Add the onions and saute
until clear. Do not brown. Set aside to cool.

Beat the eggs and sour cream together in a medium-sized bowl. Sprinkle the
flour over the top and beat it in. Stir in the salt and pepper.

Prick the bottom of the pie shell several times with a fork. Spread the
onions and bacon over the bottom of the pie shell. Pour the sour cream
mixture over the top.

Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees f and bake for another 15
minutes or until pie is nicely browned. Serve hot!


german tomato salad

Slice the tomatoes, add some sliced onions and put it in an oil/vinegar sauce.
Add some salt and pepper.


sauerbraten / sour roasted beef (replace with lamb if she doesn't eat beef)lamb

1kg piece of beef or lamb (e.g. from the upper back hip, no usual roast beef!)
1/4 l vinegar from red whine or a mixture 50:50 red whine and vinegar
2 bay leafs
2 tblsp whole black pepper
2 big onions
1 big carrot
200g potatoes
1/4 l bouillon
2 tblsp creme fraiche (or sour cream)
salt, pepper, oil

1. Place meat in a high dish, fill with vinegar (or mixture)
until covered. Add bay leafs and pepper grains and place dish in the
refrigerator. Leave there for 2-3 days, turn meat around at least once.

2. Get meat out of marinade and dry. Spice meat with pepper all around.

3. Cut onions, carrots and potatoes in little cubes.
Heat oil, place meat in it and roast until brown from all sides.
Add onions until brown, too.

4. Salt the meat, add potatoes and carrots, then the bouillon, and, optionally,
some more red whine (esp. if you used only vinegar before).
Add also a little of the marinade (without leafs and pepper).

5. Simmer for at least 1 1/2 hours on low heat in a closed pot, turn once.

6. Get meat out of the pot and keep warm.
Puree the sauce, let reduce a little. Add creme fraiche or sour creme,
add salt and pepper to your taste.

7. Cut meat into slices, serve.

Traditional side dishes are potatoes or Kloesse (dumplings),
and some vegetable like Rotkraut (that is hot red crabbage).

In some areas of germany, they add raisins and sliced apples to the sauce
so that it gets a more sweet-and-sour taste.

Answer 2

And show complete, blatant disregard for civil liberties they are inherently entitled to? And yes it would be illegal, not to mention there would be riots across the nation before the US was even 1/4 of the way done. Surrendering Civil Rights for State Security is not Freedom nor is is Liberty and should never even be considered. Those who find it acceptable are looking at a different picture, their thoughts aren't misguided because their hearts are in the right place but the methodology is simply wrong. The Patriot Act and Espionage Act are counterproductive to the Ideals that built a Nation. Simply because someone is of a different Nationality doesn't make them any less American, hell, there are some who are even more Patriotic then people who were born in the US.

Answer 3

I don't understand the obsession (of presumably europeans/christians) in the replies to this question with pigs.

Jesus and his immediate followers did not eat pork and he was circumcised as in the traditions of Abraham. It was Paul who later abolished the rules regarding ban on eating pork and of circumcision etc. When Jesus was asked for help by a woman outside this tradition he said:

Matthew: "You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces."

Yes, he is referring to people who are uncircumcised and eat pork as "dogs".

Muslims follow the same traditions with regard to what is allowed and not allowed according to the prophets Moses, Solomon, David, Jesus and Muhammad.

To begin with, I would suggest you serve any fish and some vegetable and avoid meat unless you can find a halal/kosher source. Try things such as sauerkraut. Water is still OK to go with the meal or soft drinks if you prefer.

Answer 4

A leg of lamb cooked with lots and lots of onions and caraway seeds in water ,cook it till meat is soft and reduce the liquid to make a delicious sauce ! It is called Bollenfleisch !
By the way I am a vegetarian but cook meat for carnivores !

Answer 5

Anything you can cooking (all kind of food), only without "pork".


I´m little bit surprised here is more "ausländerfeindlichkeit" as in the German YC.

Answer 6
