One such dish is "cholent" or "chamin, " a slow-cooked stew of meat, potatoes, beans and barley (although there are many other variations). The ingredients are placed in a pot and put up to boil before lighting the candles on Friday night. • A prominent feature of Shabbat cookery is the preparation of twists of bread, known as "challahs“
