APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Nablus – 14 May 2019 - A Palestinian workers prepare traditional sweets known as "Karabeej Halab", traditional pancakes that are popular during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, at a market in Qalandia refugee camp near the West Bank city of Ramallah.
STORYLINE The Arab cuisine is famous for its appeal to the sweet tooth, and Eid al-Fitr, the holiday marking the end of the month-long Muslim fast, is no different.
Qatayef or Katayef is an Arab dessert commonly served during the month of Ramadan, a sort of sweet dumpling filled with cream or nuts.
Qatayef is the general name of the dessert as a whole, but more specifically, the batter. It is usually made out of flour, baking powder, water, yeast, and sometimes sugar is added. The result of the batter being poured onto a round hot plate appears similar to pancakes, except only one side is cooked, then stuffed and folded. The pastry is filled with either unsalted cheese or cream or a mixture of any of hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds, pistachios, raisins, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, roses extract and cinnamon. It is then deep-fried or, less commonly, baked and served with a hot sweet syrup or sometimes honey. Another way of serving Qatayef is by filling it with whipped cream or Qishta, fold it only half way and serve it with scented syrup without any frying or baking. This way of serving is called Assafiri Qatayef.
Muslims around the world celebrate the holy month of Ramadan by praying during the night time and abstaining from eating, drinking, and sexual acts during the period between sunrise and sunset.
