1912. Raw Date Cinnamon Roll

I'm the kind who heel-pivots 180 degrees at the mention of trendy diet food, but sometimes I am intrigued. This recipe for raw date cinnamon rolls is apparently sold in an expensive New York cafe and was supposed to taste exactly like a glazed cinnamon roll.

1911. Individual Iroog Mosul

I do have an Iroog Mosul on MCW, but it is the family version made in a casserole dish. These are individually sized making them something of a cross between iroog Mosul and kubba Mosul.

1910. Artichokes with Hollandaise Sauce

We used to have artichokes quite often in my childhood. It's quite sad how much recent generations are missing out on.

1909. Rice Aubergine Casserole

Where there is courgette, aubergine is not far behind. It was a matter of course to try out the rice courgette casserole in aubergine format.

1908. Digestive Lemon Bars

Taking a shortcut by making these lemon bars from digestive biscuits, they quickly come together for a minimum effort flavorful treat. 

1907. Rice Courgette Casserole

The all-in-one marketing of this dish is admittedly a bit deceptive, as you will need two pots to prepare it in addition to the oven dish, so set your expectations.

1906. Peach Upsidedown Cheesecake

The funny thing about trends is that they fall into three categories: must-try, must-avoid, and a very dangerous why-not. This silly upside down cheesecake trend was a let's-try-it-once, and once is all I'm going to do. 

1905. Sujuk Paratha Rolls

A very simple two ingredients pastry that  packs a lot of flavor due to the heavily spiced sujuk. 

1904. Lemon Feta Shrimp Orzo

This is a quick and flavorful meal that is inspired by Greek flavors and delivers a wholesome nutritional profile. Done from start to finish in under 20 minutes, the same dressing that the pasta is coated in is used to flavor the shrimp. 

1903. Baked Apricot Kofta

My first impulse when asked what's my favorite fruit is, why choose when Allah has given us all? Then, I think of a perfectly ripe yet still firm apricot in season, and it just might be my favorite.
