Ta’jil literally means hasten in Arabic. In the context of Ramadan, the word itself means to hasten to break the fast. But there has been a shift in the meaning, Indonesian used the word “takjil” in a reference to drinks, snacks and desserts that we consumed to break the fast during Ramadan.

The holy month of Ramadan is highly anticipated, not only by Muslims but also by food lovers. This is the right time for the foodies to savour their favourite Indonesian delicacies. No fast-breaking meal can be considered complete without traditional desserts like kolak or bubur candil, fritters or gorengan is another favorite bite for iftar.

This is also the time when the kitchen is busiest in Indonesian household. Devoted mom and housewife spent countless hours to prepare food for iftar and suhoor. We spend way too much time for preparing food, doing grocery shopping and not to mention hunting new clothes for Idul Fitri. We don’t even realize that we almost lose the real essence of Ramadan.
