Atayef

Atayeeeef! Only eaten through the month of Ramadan, it’s probably the most staple dessert of fasting Palestinians and their neighbours!

Tabbouleh

Tabbouleh! I'm sure you've been to Arabic, or more specifically Lebanese restaurants and ordered it, but trust me when I say it's nothing like the homemade stuff! Perfect as a side at dinner during the summer, and perfect for taking to impress at a barbecue, it’s so refreshing and light!

Ka’k/ Ma2roo6ah/ Date Cookies

Walking into the house and being hit with the smell of spices! Anis seeds, Nigella seeds, Cinnamon. Fresh hot pastries sitting of the counter top whilst another batch is in the oven. Then seeing mama at the table rolling the dough, amazing!

Balsamic Quinoa Salad

This Salad is absolutely delicious and so simple to make. As the weather gets warmer and the stovetop becomes less appealing, chilled meals are a life saver. I love to have this sitting in the fridge ready for lunch or dinner for whenever i’m hungry or too busy to prepare anything. 

Coconut & Cinnamon popcorn

It's definitely one of my favorite snacks that can be whipped up in 5 minutes, and that's no exaggeration. Just a few ingredients and you're good to go! Sweet, crispy and good for you too.

Hot Chocolate

Just a quick wintery recipe! My hot chocolate is something I have almost everyday in the winter. It's warming, comforting and possibly might become your best friend in the even colder months to come. Depending on my mood I'll add cinnamon, or ginger, which just take it to the most festive level you can imagine...

Wholesome Brownies

These brownies...are so...good. I urge you to try them! They're moist, chocolately, sweet, chewy and incredibly satisfying. It's everything you want in a brownie really. If you want to have a dessert or chocolatey snack which isn't going to land you in a sugar coma, this is the perfect treat. 

Kidney Bean Mtabbal

I can eat this with a spoon. Need I say more?

Recently i've really come to appreciate Palestinian food. I must admit i've taken it for granted most of my life, but never seen it's full beauty until now...
