Ashura
Hello friends,
for the first time this year ashura I did it was quite tiring but a nice experience. Of course, my right arm was caught in the evening for mixing it so that it wouldn't catch the bottom :) But we got the reward of our effort. It was quite good both visually and in terms of taste. By the way, many thanks to my Pervincik's Anushka, who gave me many tips on this subject. The trick of Ashura well-done legumes boiled separately. Especially when it is boiled in a slow fire, yes, it is daunting in this respect, but when it is finished, you see that it was worth the trouble.
I did last year my recipe for ashura Peace be upon you again, what I did this year ashuraI prepared it using twice the ingredients below. Ashura I changed the photo with a new one and updated it by adding a few materials…
Ingredients for Ashura Recipe
- 250 grams of wheat
- 200 grams chickpeas
- 200 grams of dried beans
- 200 grams of raisins
- 100 grams of dried figs
- 100 grams of dried apricots
- 100 grams of peanuts
- 3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon
- 15 – 20 glasses of water
For decoration:
- Currants, Chopped Walnuts, Grapes, Walnuts, Almonds, Cinnamon, Pomegranate Seeds, Coconut, Netted Pistachio, Candied Cherry
How to Make Ashura Recipe?
- Wash the wheat, beans, chickpeas and grapes and soak them overnight in separate containers. The next day, strain the wheat and put it in a large steel pot.
- Add 15 glasses of water and bring to a boil. Take the foam that accumulates on it with a colander, close the lid of the pot and boil it until the wheat bursts and becomes soft (if you put 2 cinnamon sticks in it, the smell is perfect).
- Drain the beans and chickpeas and boil them in separate bowls (I recommend that you start boiling all three at the same time, including wheat).
- Add the chickpeas and dried beans when the wheat broth is about to reach the consistency of flour soup. Boil well until it starts to thicken.
- Then add peanuts, raisins, finely chopped dried apricots and grated orange peels and mix. Bring a few boils to a boil.
- Finally, add the sugar and boil for 5-10 minutes, then add the figs, bring to a boil and remove from the fire.
- If you want to keep the consistency thick, dissolve a little wheat starch, which you take with the tip of a teaspoon, in 2 tablespoons of rose water and add it to the asurea. Boil for another 1-2 minutes.
- After the ashura is cooked, pour it into bowls while it is hot. When it cools down, garnish it with walnuts, pistachios, currants, cinnamon and pomegranate seeds and serve.
Note 1: Always keep hot water in the kettle or teapot because you may need to add extra water as it thickens.
Note 2: If you try to decorate it while it is hot, the material will collapse in because the ashure does not hold a crust.
Ms. Nilay,
How many servings does your recipe make? If you can let me know, I would be very happy.

Thank you very, very much..
Hello Ms. Nilay,
How many bowls does this recipe make on average? I will be glad if you help.
Hello Gonca, I remember that this recipe makes 15-16 cups. 30 servings of this recipe that I prepared last time. You can find the link here http://mutfaksirlari.com/asure-3.html
Hello.. I have been using this recipe of yours for 2 years. I hear very nice compliments from those who eat it with its decorations and taste :) Thank you very much for the recipe. However, while I'm boiling the bulgur, I add 5-6 cloves to it along with the cinnamon. It also gives an excellent taste in the orange peel. Good luck again :)
I am very pleased with the recipe you have given, thank you.
I like and follow your recipes, I want to make aşureyi, but the measurements will be difficult as there are no cups or spoons ………..
I made a soup for the first time today. It was delicious. Thank you very much for your recipe.
I would appreciate it if you could let me know how many people will come out of the recipe on average.
How many bowls will this recipe make?
We dfeineilty need more smart people like you around.
Your hands look very nice and your decoration is great. By the way, I would like to give you a trick, wash the wheat in the evening, put it in the pot, add plenty of water and boil it for 5 minutes, then turn off the fire, cover the pot as if making yogurt and leave it until morning. When you get up in the morning, you will see that all the wheat is cooked.
I made a soup, it was very sweet, what can I do?
It looks so beautiful. I can't explain how it would hurt :) I'm in London right now. Even though I ate it. I never tried to make it myself. My mother always made it when I was at home.
I love your recipes and explanations.. I discovered you with the flour halva recipe, it was super.. keep it up
If you boil the wheat in the evening before going to bed with 15 glasses of water and turn off the stove, you will see that the wheat is cooked to its full consistency when you wake up in the morning. If you buy a can of chickpeas and beans ready-boiled and use them, what's easier than making ashura :) I do it this way, even because my wife doesn't like chickpeas and beans, I put the wheat in a blender and make it into a pudding consistency, then add apricots, currants, orange zest, cloves. I add etc. I advise.
My dear Nilay, I just ate my ashura :) I multiplied the recipe with 3 because I made it for the crowd and the result was great, thank you very much :))) I used canned beans and chickpeas, they melted as I threw them at the time you wrote :)) But there was no problem in appearance and taste : ) You gave a very practical recipe :) Well done!
it looks great and delicious
I live in Konya. It is prepared from this soup on the day of Ashura in Kırşehir. The whole neighborhood enjoyed it. While the person who prepared the soup was distributing it, it was distributed to everyone, without any discrimination of foreigners.
When I told my friends in Konya, they laughed a lot. They said that ashura is sweet, not soup. Thanks to Oktay USTAM, everyone learns that ashura is in their soup and they don't miss out on this delicious taste.
I think it's good food but there must be more dazzling things :)
Ohhh, it was wonderful, my eyes were opened, my dear NilaY :) Well done..
My nilaycim, your hands look delicious. I couldn't taste your ashura this year, but I still have the taste of last year :) I'll try your recipe and I hope it will be as good as yours, thank you for your work...
Thank you honey, our ashuras are out again, but I promise I'll bring it to you next time. love..
Hello Nurhayat,
You add the cinnamon sticks to the pot in the second boiling of the wheat and just before adding the other ingredients.
It certainly does not give bitterness or turbidity. It adds a very pleasant aroma.
asure is my favorite dessert, they say I've made it well. I'll try your recipe as soon as possible.
Thanks for your reply, I'll try it this week :)))
Hello,
One-time boiling: The material you put on the stove with a pot or coffee pot is boiled once and taken from the stove.
Yours.
mehrab,
I had a question for you, what exactly does it mean to boil a stone? Thank you.
My friend Ashuren was amazing, well done to my girlfriends who came from work on Sunday, I was blessed with this Ashure, my dear, may God give your home a thousand blessings, may you always be in peace, yours is as sweet as Aşüren, but it doesn't need to be so complicated :D
my dear… they all look delicious, we also had our lunch; but the more I look at this site, the more my appetite is whetted :) the site is great, it's very heartwarming, people wonder what's on the other side. I hope you get plenty of recipes, I hope you get clicked every day;) by the way, they will think that Anushka is a name too :) Anushka is my mothermmmmmm: )Let this be a footnote;)I hope you improve the site even more…I will come again.
even though it was your first ashura experience, it really tasted great. Even though I'm more interested in the eating part, the decorations of the top picture belong to me :) everyone enjoyed the taste. Good luck to your hands..
