Cook with Me MAFROUM | Day in the Life DITL | Passover Yom Tov & Shabbat Prep | Orthodox Jewish Mom

- Опубликовано: 4 апр 2021
- Let's get ready for Shabbat and Yom tov! Its still Passover, and I am preparing for the final days of Passover (called yom tov), as well as Shabbat, because it overlaps with the yom tov. I'll be taking you through my day, giving you a garden update, talking about our week of Passover / Pesach fun, and taking you along as I make Mafroum! Mafroum is a traditional North African dish made of meat and potatoes. This is one of my favorite Sephardi dishes. So delicious!
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

What’s your specialty dish that you like to make?
I like making bean burritos
I really love making a Brazilian fish stew w/ halibut, heart of palm, coconut milk, etc, during winter months. Love to make leek keftes and lamb tagine too. My husband also enjoys any pasta dish because he loves cheese... a lot. I call him The Mouse. 😂
@@Voronochka262 delicious! That’s one of my son’s favorites!
@@legony1 the mouse! That’s so cute! Love it! I’ve never heard of the fish stew, I’ll be looking that up later! Sounds delicious! Lamb tagine is one of my all time favorite dishes (but I’ve never made it myself 🤣)
Fry bread and chili!
There is something so calming and reassuring about your voice and your videos! Even my 9 year old son commented on it this morning as he was watching over my shoulder he said, ‘this lady seems like a really nice mom. I really like her voice.’ And I said, ‘I agree!’
Awwww That is the BEST compliment :) Thank you so much for sharing that with me! You made my day :) Please tell your son thank you also :)
Enjoy your family, food and fellowship!
Thank you so much!

Kourabiedes known as Greek wedding cookie are a type of shortbread made with ground almonds rolled in icing sugar Served at weddings and special occasions Easily made gluten free So very good A tasty treat
Channah all your videos are wonderful. Be well..
Thank you so much!
I’m making this for my husband this week!! He’s half Moroccan and Algerian, but raised in Paris. We live in Maryland. Cheers from the East Coast. 🙂
Ohhhh enjoy! Eat it in good health!!! 💜
Oooh nice I’ll be moving this year to Maryland because of my husband job, how do you like Maryland so far? I’ve visited but never lived there.
@@rosieq.8713 It depends on where you will be living! I live in Montgomery County and I enjoy it, but the cost of living is high for some!
@@legony1 ahh ok from the places we’ve seen we like Severn and another town.
I've been binging your channel. I really appreciate your content. I am not a practicing Jew but I do have Jewish ancestry and I want to start celebrating some of the beautiful holidays and traditions. I have learned so much about my family and our past through you. Thank you.
Oh wow thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to tell me that! I’m so glad to hear my channel has been so meaningful and helpful to you! 💜
Before I went vegetarian mafroum and majbous used to be my favourite dishes. They are the best. It brings me lots of good memories ❤
So glad that could bring back some memories for you 💜
A tip for you - if you put your damp dish cloth under your cutting board, it won't move around on you!
Thanks Christena :)
I'm on spring break at the moment and should be revising for exams... I go onto RUclips to find some study music and see you've uploaded a video, so now I just HAVE to watch it and then get back to studying LOL - thanks for making your videos, they're just amazing!
Happy to give you a little break in your day 😊 Best of luck on your exams!!!! Enjoy your spring break!!!
Another lovely video Chana! I enjoyed watching you meal prep 😃
Thank you! 🤗
Hi I made this today. It is so very good. I didn’t have chicken broth so I used beef broth. It turned out yummy. I’ll make it again.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Oh this looks wonderful! VERY YUMMY Thank you
You are so welcome!
Oh that sounds so good.
It’s delicious!
Looks so yummy! I am going to try to make soon
Let me know how you like it!
I want to make this. Yum!!! Thank you for sharing 💕🍽
Hope you enjoy! Let me know how you like it :)
Definitely making this!
Let me know how you like it please 💜
Great video love the recipe!!
Thank you so much Cheryl!
I work in a commercial kitchen, and let me tell you, my boss would prefer “slow and safe” than “fast and dangerous.” You’re even slower if your dealing with a bad cut than if you are just steady.
I also have to say, you are one of my absolute favorite you tubers. You feel so homey, and sweet and are just the best thing to listen to while I unpack and put away the food deliveries.
Oh wow thank you so much Elizabeth! You really made my night with that comment! Thank you :)
I was on RUclips. I came upon your videos. I love them. Can you post your recipes? My husband is from Morocco and sometimes I would cook Moroccan food.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here! Any recipe that I’ve posted is on this playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLqxZU_RTv3pvi2bToQjOCGzXQ5vMjtVQ5 More to be added in the future!
What a great recipe! I’m going to try to make it. Thank you 😊
Enjoy it Orly! Please let me know how you like it!
Looks really good😋
And I see you're finally enjoying your new tea cup 👍😃
Definitely enjoyed it! Now it’s time to pack it up for neck to year :)
What a pretty cup and saucer!
Thank you!
Now this recipe looks very yummy. I will be trying my skills on it 😀
Let me know how you like it!
Hi Chana! I enjoy your videos so so much! I struggle with insomnia, and when I can't sleep, I come to your channel and watch your great videos. They are so calming and nice. The recipe you made in this video looks awesome! Thanks so much for always making such great videos. Hugs, Bethany
Thank you so much!!! You are so kind Bethany!
Oh YUMMM!! They look so incredible. Definitely have to make this soon. Thanks for the recipe.
My pleasure! And thank you for the tip about the cake meal!!!
@@jaroffireflies you got it
I love your chopping skills. Because it is real and not perfect and relatable. Thank you for sharing real life ❤️ learning and growing and so nice to see others in the arena. Not just the perfect highlights of their life. (Side note: I am not a multitasker in the kitchen so I am slow for other reasons 😂
Thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate you!
@@jaroffireflies I sent a mssg to ur fb before I realized I have a gmail. Goodness! We are also on some of the same homeschooling Jewish pages. I relate so much to you. You are such an encouragement and have already traveled much road my family has been on. I am grateful for you.
Also before Pesach you had said u might have kashrutted ur dishwasher? What would that have entailed for you? Do u use it for dairy or meat or? U would kashrut it just for chametz?
@@kindrawade2730 so glad these videos are helpful for you! I don’t do Facebook so if you want to reach me, you can send me an email. You can find it in the about section on my channel page :) As for the dishwasher, my husband took care of it but I honestly have no clue how 🤣
Your voice is so calming🙌🏼Honestly,do you ever yell?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Of course I do!!! But not often thankfully :)
This recipe looks delicious. I think I’ll try it. Thank you. I would like to suggest placing a damp dish towel under your cutting board to keep board in place while you cut items. So much safer. Appreciate your videos.
Thank you :) Enjoy!
I am reading all the responses you took the time to answer! Please forgive me for inundating you with comments and questions. I told you I was catching up but you are so kind and thanks again for answering my silly questions. But you are just a lovely woman and so happy I found your channel! Have a great day Chana:)
Thank you my friend :) your comments always put a smile on my face! Have. Wonderful day 💜
You have such beautiful tea cups. Nice to see your garden progressing, living in New England we have a few more months before we can plant,still to cold. Your recipe looks amazing and I will have to try it. Does it freeze well?
Thank you so much for your kind words :) I haven’t tried to freeze the recipe, but I imagine it would freeze well :) other meat and potato recipes I’ve done like this do.
You are an inspiring cook!!! I have celiac as well, and I have learned all about new techniques and ingredients from your recipes! Do you have a written recipe for this? I am also eagerly awaiting your braided gf challah!! Blessings to you! 🩷
Hello Barbara! Thank you so much for your kind words! To answer your question, if I did not write it in the description, then I don’t have it written down. For the holiday, though, I’m not sure when I’m going to be able to get to that video, so let me go ahead and tell you now. What you want to do is only put in three eggs and then let the dough sit for like an hour. That is much easier to shape into a braid. It’s still not gonna act like traditional dough, but you are able to form it into a braid.
that looks really good. if i had the patience, i would make it.
It’s worth the time and it makes fabulous leftovers :)
I can see why that is a treat and not made every day. It is a process isn't it? Could you cook it in the oven at the end instead of on top of the stove? I saw your new cup...beautiful!! You are going to have quite a collection.:) Loved seeing your garden.....it is so nice that spring seems to be here.
Spring has definitely sprung!!!! I imagine it could be baked no problem, that’s just not how I learned it lol I’m going to have to try that though!!!
That dish looks delicious. Do you need to use a specific potato? You may have guessed I'm loving your channel and have been binge watching during my days off. :) x
Hi Zoe! ❤️ I prefer golden potatoes but I’ve seen it made with russet potatoes too so I imagine any would work 💐 Enjoy!
Definitely saving this recipe! Its one of the more ethnic recipes I've seen that doesn't have cilantro OR cumin in it. I don't know why, but I'm one of those people who just can't eat cilantro because it tastes like I got hairspray in my mouth...and cumin has a little bit of that bitterness to me too. I always get so disappointed with a lot Israeli, Moroccan, or Persian recipes because they tend to contain one or both of these spices. So obviously, was super excited that this recipe had neither! Can't wait to try it!
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that about the cilantro! It’s one of my favorite things to eat! But yay that you can enjoy this scrumptious recipe :)
Yum
Very 😋
Wow, the mafroum looks delicious! Have you ever tried freezing it? I'd love to make a whole batch of it and portion it out. Thank you for the amazing content :)
Thank you so much! I’ve never had enough leftover to freeze, but based on the ingredients I think it would be just fine :) Please let me know if you try it! Enjoy!
Well, I made it and it was a success :) thank you so much for sharing this. I only substituted the cabbage with kale because it was what I had on hand and it was delicious. I froze it for two weeks and it reheated beautifully: the only thing I would suggest is to add a little bit of water and to be very gentle when stirring as a few of my mafroums disassembled during reheating. Anyway, really awesome dish Chana, thank you again from my family :)
I love okra roasted with garlic olive oil touch of whatever spice mix with cooked tomato or tomato paste
That sounds super yum!
I’m definitely making the potato hamburger meat meal! Yum. I cook in my roaster pan all the time but only in the oven. It works okay on the stove top? Also how do you spell your first name? I’ve seen it written many ways. I really enjoy your videos, thank you.
Yes it works just fine on the stove top :) I spell my name Chana :) Let me know how the recipe turns out for you!
wow - that dish looks delicious. i will definitely try it. do you season the sauce with salt and spices as well?
Just a little salt :) and anything else I did in the video. The meat is full of spices 😁
Hello Chana, this meal looks absolutely amazing. How many roast potato burger ball dumplings (all the favourite foods in the UK!) do you serve per person? I am very hungry now, but it's 11pm in England and I'm in bed 🤣
I just set them out and people take what they want :) Usually two or three for grownups and 1 or two for kids :) Thank you!
@@jaroffireflies thank you so much! Also, are they spicy (like blow your head off/make you sweat heat), or just .... flavourful? If that makes sense 😁 I'm going to try them one day!
@@littlemisshappy2002 flavorful :) Not spicy at all!
@jaroffireflies I want u to knownI rewatch all your videos all.the time. I find your videos and voice very calming. Keep making videos .please..BTW what is the machinery on counter called carnivore
Thank you so much for your kind words! The machine is a meat grinder
Thank you so much for an amazing looking recipe. Will try it.
I really appreciate your videos :)
Please let me know how you like it! It’s a family favorite here :) thanks so much for watching 💜
@@jaroffireflies Yes, will try. I would love seeing more cooking. The Sephardic dishes all sound exciting. :) Yashir koach
@@sarahmiles449 thank you! I’m planning to do our Moroccan fish recipe in a video now that Pesach is over :)
I love this video! The food looks amazing! I’m definitely going to try this. I also really love your dress! May I ask where you got it from?
Thank you! I can’t remember where I got the dress from, but I’m going to figure it out so I can include a shop name in a future video where I go through my wardrobe
@@jaroffireflies oh, that would be so great!!!
@@charissaengland1862 awesome!
Greetings, Chana! I'm not religious yet I am so enthralled by your heartfelt programs. You may already know this but here is a suggestion, if I may: to keep the cutting board from sliding about when working with a knife, place a damp cloth underneath it. It'll remain stationery. All the best to you and to your lovely family.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, I usually place a towel under the cutting board, just not today :)
Wow, that looks so good! I wonder how it would work with vegan mince? I am growing potatoes this year and you have given me an idea! ❤️
If you try it please let me know how it turns out! I’m sure it would work great with something like the Beyond Beef ground “beef” 😋
@sandra wondering the same. Did you try it?
@@lisaruttenberg5886 Not yet! My potatoes aren’t quite ready but I’ve saved the recipe for when I start harvesting. 😊
Mafroum looks absolutely delicious! I have just discovered that my family was Sephardi before a marriage took place and shifted to Ashkenazi. Now I am so torn between which of the two customs to follow.
You can always enjoy the food no matter what tradition you follow :)
@@jaroffireflies Absolutely! I am definitely going to give it a go.
@@michaelurvoy enjoy! Eat them in good health :)
follow both like we did...we went to askenazi school but the foods were from both cultures
I find this really interesting im not jewish but i like to learn, i will say this tho, slip a wet towel or paper towl under your chopping board to secure it i was scared for your fingers at some moments lol :) have a peaceful day.
Thanks for the tip!
Do you have a video of your cholent recipe?
At this time no. We haven’t made it in a while but I plan to film it next time I do :)
what makes salt kosher or non-kosher?
I'm sure you've answered this question a million times but what's the significance of the water over your hands and the prayer? Is it everyday or just during holidays?
It’s ok! Yes, both are every day. Here is a video that explains the handwashing: ruclips.net/video/8pzYkrZHtzU/видео.html and here is a video that explains the prayer: ruclips.net/video/iOeUnm-KkFs/видео.html Enjoy and let me know if you have questions 💜
Is this a Jewish dish? Looks amazing.
It’s a North African dish that is made by Sephardic Jews :) There have been Jews in North Africa for centuries as it was a place many settled during the Spanish Inquisition.
Candy 🍠 🍠
why just egg whites and not beaten whole eggs?
Isn't that mixing dairy (egg whites) with meat? I am confused!
Great question! Eggs are not considered dairy or meat. We call them parve (which means not meat or dairy). I’m so fascinated to hear how many people consider eggs to be dairy! I never thought that even before I became Jewish!
@@jaroffireflies Thanks for the explanation! I guess because in supermarkets they always have the eggs in the "dairy" section. :-)
@@islandbaby4704 that makes sense :)
Your cutting board is moving and that is dangerous. Put a wet paper towel underneath or that rubber grippy stuff that you use as drawer liners to secure the board so you don't hurt yourself.
Even a clean dish towel underneath your cutting board will keep it from slipping. Love all of your videos, and your pleasant personality.
Can the dish me made different a different type of meat? I was just wondering that all
I’m sure it could be. I’ve only made it with ground beef, but I bet it could be delicious with ground lamb or a combination 😋
@@jaroffireflies ahh ok I was just wondering since my husband doesn’t like beef but likes lamb. Thanks for the suggestion 🙂
@@rosieq.8713 please let me know how it turns out with lamb! Now I want to try it that way :) Lamb is my favorite red meat :)
@@jaroffireflies i will I’ll tag you on Instagram it would be my first time making it. I hope I don’t burn it lol
@@rosieq.8713 that’s perfect! I’m sure it’ll turn out fantastic:)
BTW: get yourself a hand potato/apple peeler from Amazon. It will change your life…
I’ll check it out
Help, just starting to try kosher. I know nothing, not a jew yet either.
Hello! Are you in the conversion process? If so, your rabbi or mentor would be able to help you a lot
@@jaroffireflies no...I'm so new to alot of stuff. I just found your videos yesterday. I loved your coffee cup that said, ACTUALLY I CAN... that spoke to me, because I don't know if I can actually do anything I need to do. I know you are busy. But if we could talk somewhere in private. If not, I'm wondering if I can possibly convert. You seemed to just jump in and obey stuff. I don't understand the hair coverings and lots of stuff. I left christianity aboutv13 years ago, but I only found out jesus and the new testament was part of the pagen lies. I'm all alone. Like hubby kids family, don't even care about God. I've loved my creator since I first learned about him. I just watch RUclips rabbis and order books. But bottom line I'm clueless. I'm not like you, I'm not jumping into all the changes, because ivstill am not sure if I'm crazy or not. But gods commands, his sabbath are eternal..I know that. It makes me sick that people I love still go into a church..help!!!! Lol
@@jaroffireflies wow, thanks for responding so fast
@@jaroffireflies I think I replied in the wrong place, in my comment to you...I'm kinda old, lol
Dont you cover your kitchen on pasover..
We completely re-kasher it
Wow I have to cover the kitchen in Israel it's hard to kasher the stone work tops .my family loves your videos thank you
@@peterdalyy3542 here we have granite which is easy to kasher. I do cover the shelving etc. I have a video where I kasher the kitchen for Passover here: ruclips.net/video/uwRJkjbYGKE/видео.html I am so glad you are all enjoying my videos :) thank you!
Love you channel but right now you are driving me crazy! Dampen a towel & put it under your cutting board. You are a accident waiting to happen. One of the first things I learned when I started cooking. The other is always have sharp knives (less injuries).
