Continue ReadingThe versatility of European butter makes it the easiest way to add flavors to your dishes. I made this flavored butter in the colors of the UAE flag to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this great nation. Although it looks very impressive, it is actually very easy to make as French butter has a creaminess and a natural purity that allows flavors to shine through.

The technique of baking the chilled cookie discs in the cupcake tins restricts the cookies from expanding hence resulting in crispy edges and tender centers. Absolutely heavenly! Try them with vanilla ice-cream.

Continue ReadingChopped salad, simply. Sometimes the simplest things in life are the best! Like this salad, adapted from @bakedbymelissa’s Mediterranean salad, I just added cabbage. Make sure to chop all your veggies in the same size and shape- and quite a small dice. I used firm tomatoes, Lebanese cucumbers, white cabbage, a small red onion and some pitted black olives. For the dressing, lemon juice from freshly squeezed lemons and their double in extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and enjoy!

I love preparing big batches and having them in the friends ready to eat. They can be a snack or a main course, served with lemon, pomegranate molasses, olive oil and fresh herbs. Eat it using lettuce leaves.

Continue ReadingDates, peanut butter and chocolate. These little bites are the equivalent of healthy snicker bars! No kidding. They are the easiest and most delicious snack to have on the fridge.Make sure to use a softer variety of dates such as medjool or the smaller khalas dates.I like chunky peanut butter, you can use smooth, as long as it’s a top quality no oil added one. As for the chocolate, you can use all dark or a mix of both dark and milk, just make sure it’s a good quality one.
