Fasting Month and Eid Celebrations (Raya)

For all Muslim, fasting month is coming soon and before we know it Raya would be uppon us. I'm sure there are many preparations that needs to be done for the Eid Celebrations (Raya). I would like to share a very simple recipe if you would like to prepare something for your guests.

Chocolate Mixed Nuts- all you need is some nuts, chocolates (dark and white or normal and white chocolate).

1. Chop up  your chosen nuts and set them aside.
2. Melt your chocolate at 2mins/ 50 degrees/ speed 3. (May vary depending on amount of chocolate). 
3. Once melted, put in the chopped nuts and stir.
4. Spoon them using your tablespoon and shape into oval.
5. Next, melt the white chocolate and while it is still in liquid form, use a teaspoon and just decorate in a wave design on the slightly cooled mixed nuts chocolate.

This is just a very basic recipe. feel free to alter any as you see fit. If you don't like nuts, maybe you want to mix in cornflakes or raisins.

If anyone has any interesting recipes for the Eid Celebrations (Raya), feel free to email them to me and I will post it up.
