YAY it worked..took awhile though geeeeez.

#1. Anjero is a staple food in back home and it’s the most common breakfast food. Everyone would eat an average of three anjeros with a cup of tea. The anjero would be sprinkled with some sugar and drizzled with a little sesame oil or melted ghee. It's also occasionally incorporated into lunch and served with various types of stews.
#2: Lamb or Goat Broth, it isn't a standalone dish but very popular, especially with the older crowd. Often eaten on cold-weather days or when sick with cold ( though definitely not a prerequisite for eating it)
#3: Pilaf Rice, often topped with raisins, thinly sliced potatoes, green peppers and onions. Eaten with an especially made "hot sauce" for those who enjoy kicking up the spice!

OH, and of course I've practically uttered blasphemy so far some of my people would be concerned by forgetting the following LOL
