My beloved Tunisian dish

27 Jun

Tajine cattedWhat Tunisians refer to as a “tajine” is very different from the more well-known Moroccan dish.
Tunisian tajine is more like an Italian frittata. First, a simple ragout of meat cut into very small pieces, cooked with onions and various spices, such as a blend of dried rosebuds and ground cinnamon known as bharat, or a robust combination of ground coriander and caraway seeds, is called tabil.
Then something starchy is added to thicken the juices – common thickeners include cannellini beans, chickpeas, breadcrumbs or cubed potatoes.
When the meat is tender, it is combined with whatever ingredient has been chosen to be the dominant flavoring.
Tajine
Examples include but are not limited to fresh parsley, dried mint, saffron, sundried tomatoes, cooked vegetables, or even stewed calf’s brains. Next, the stew is enriched with cheese and eggs. Finally, this egg & stew is baked in a deep pie dish, either on the stove or in the oven until both top and bottom are crisply cooked and the eggs are just set. When the tajine is ready, it is turned out onto a plate and sliced into squares, accompanied by wedges of lemon. Tunisian tajines can be made with seafood, or as a completely vegetarian dish.
In rural parts of Tunisia, home cooks place a shallow earthenware dish over glowing olive wood, fill it, cover it with a flat earthen pan, and then pile hot coals on top. The resulting tajine is crusty on top and bottom, moist within, and is infused with a subtle smoky fragrance.

Replace a string in the field of SQL table

Using the UPDATE instruction we can change the value of a field in SQL table easily but when it come to change a word in the field with out changing it all here is the problem. The following instruction solves the problem:
the table is “emp” containing a field “destination” and we need to change the word Sales with Marketing for all the occurrences.
[code="sql"]
UPDATE emp set designation=replace(designation, 'Sales', 'Marketing') where 1
