It is a story of discomfort. Of calm, ruthless violence. A drag-your-hands-down-to-uncover-your-eyes gaze at the oblivion we practice not only during Eid holidays, but on any regular day in Bangladesh. 

With Eid ul Azha knocking at our door, it is mandatory to assume that our kitchen will go through a tornado of bloody mess. Both scenarios require different post-cleaning procedures, from handling raw meat to cooking them. Things can and will get pretty crazy and sometimes, it just is not possible to get the dishes and kitchen space cleaned immediately.

Cooking various dishes of meat is a time-tested culture of the Eid-ul-Azha festival. Every family has their favourite recipes, and Eid day traditions of Qurbani activities. Nothing quite brings out the foodie side of people like the festival of sacrifice.

Eid-ul-Azha is just around the corner, and that usually means a refrigerator full of meat for you to cook up a storm. And here are the perfect recipes to accompany you in said cooking adventure.

Much before Eid-ul-Azha actually arrives, home chefs everywhere start preparing for the food-centred activities as soon as they can. It is no surprise though, as most meat dishes need elaborate prep, and also quite a few ingredients. Here are some you can try this Eid for yourself.

Eid-ul-Azha is around the corner, and food buffs who enjoy the festival have no doubt already chosen their traditional favourites to experiment when the meat comes in. However, people nowadays have had so much exposure to different cuisines that the meat loving heart can no longer restrict itself to only biryani and beef rezala, even during Qurbani.

Eid-ul-Azha is one of the biggest celebrations of the year which comes with an abundance of food. Be it mutton or beef, we are already looking up the latest recipes to try out alongside the traditional ones. However, as fun as it all sounds, the constant presence of meat on the table can start to become unappetising after a while. If you want to add a touch of uniqueness in your Eid feast, grab a loaf of bread and keep reading because these recipes are just for you!

Mozzarella cheese is not only delicious to taste but has several health advantages too. Mozzarella contains a powerhouse of minerals that are highly beneficial for the body, is a rich source of protein, and is great for bone health.

This dish is for those who relish mildly spiced preparations. Perfected at the Mughal kitchen, it is still highly regarded as a celebration food.

The spirituality and holiness you feel while reciting the “talbiyah” along with the congregation is a powerful feeling. The sacredness and religiousness gives you a sensation of purity, it connects you to the almighty and you surrender yourself totally. 

The holy Eid-ul-Azha, one of the biggest religious festivals of the Muslims, will be celebrated across the country on September 2 as the moon of Zilhaj is sighted in Bangladesh.
