THE STORY

Hope and Greed
Caliph Haroon Rashid desired that any one who had seen the Holy Prophet (SAW) in his lifetime be brought before him. After some time a very old woman was brought before the Caliph. The Caliph asked the old woman, "Did you see the Prophet yourself?" She said, "Yes! Oh Sir." The Caliph then asked her if she remembered any narration from him. She said yes and said, "When old age comes two things become young, one is hope and the other is greed." The Caliph thanked her and gave her one hundred dinars. The woman thanked the Caliph and she was taken back.

Half the way some thought passed through her mind and she desired to be brought before the Caliph once more. When she was shown in, the Caliph asked, "Well, why have you come back?" She said. "I just came to inquire whether the monies you gave me were once for all or is it to continue every year?"

The Caliph thought. "How true is the Prophet's word?" she has hope of life even now and she has greed for money too. The Caliph said, "Don't worry; you will be paid every year." She was taken back but on the way she breathed her last.

RECIPE

DURBAN ROTI
A type of pancake filled with curry, or used as bread to mop up all the curry juices
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INGREDIANTS
3 cups flour - 1 t salt - 3 T oil - enough water to form a soft dough - 1 cup soft butter or margarine oil for frying.

METHOD
Mix the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl and add the oil. Rub in until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add water and mix to a fairly soft dough. Roll out on a floured surface and roll to the size of a 23 x 32cm rectangle. Spread the dough with softened butter and roll it up like a Swiss roll. Cover with a tea towel and leave for 30 minutes. Break off pieces of dough and form into balls the size of tennis balls. Roll out each ball into a disc the size of a dinner plate. Fry in hot oil for 2 minutes on each side. Serve immediately with a curry filling, or on the side.

 
HEALTH TIP

According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
