Amira loves cholent and is eager to share her Nona's recipe in the "Best Cholent Competition Down Under." Amira and Nona throw garlic and ginger into their pot. "This is not a cholent," someone says. Everyone gasps when Nona takes out a needle and thread and stitches the stuffed chicken, and adds eggs to the stew. "This is not a cholent!" the crowd says. Amira holds Nona's hand and shuts her eyes when the judges come. "This is not a cholent," the judges say..."but it's delicious. What is it?" "This is a cholent," Amira says. "It's an Iraqi stew that Nona and I make every Friday." Everyone agrees it is the best.
