A dazzling new cookbook from food writer Yasmin Khan |
Captivating stories from those who love, live and cook with Palestine in their hearts |
Discover distinctive regional flavours of The Galilee, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip |
Recipes include herb-filled salads, quick pickles, fragrant soups, tender roasted meats and rich desserts |
" I’m an adventurous eater and curious traveller, never more at home than when in an unfamiliar food market, captivated by the bustling sounds and scents of a foreign land…
The thread running through all my work is a fundamental belief that humans, wherever we are in the world, have more to unite us than to divide us."

Middle Eastern food is a cuisine which I enjoy anyway but this book has provided some really eye opening recipes as well as beautiful extracts of the authors travels in Palestine and the history of the dishes and the people who make them. We have tried five or six recipes now and all of them have been DELICIOUS. We mostly eat vegetarian/vegan and this book caters for that brilliantly as well as offering some meaty options. Even my sister who is a pretty fussy eater and tends to enjoy plainer food has liked all of the dishes we have made - a sure sign that this book is quality! The hummus recipe is OUT OF THIS WORLD and I eat it by the spoonful. I have had to go out and buy some special ingredients such as pomegranate molasses and sumac but my gosh has it been worth it. The only recipe which did not win all out praise was the little date cookies but that was due only to the fact that they were heavily rosy which is not a flavour that we all love however, my mum who does like it, loved them and I can't wait to try out more of the sweeter dishes.
I cannot sing this books praises enough - if you are looking for some new cooking inspiration please try this book! It will liven up your dinner times and introduce you to a beautiful new world of flavours!
