1870. Arabian Courgette Casserole

This courgette casserole is a total mish mash of the best element from yogurt stuffed courgettes and lasagne.

1869. Sweet Chilli Wings {Airfryer}

These sticky-sweet-savory-spicy chicken wings are cooked in the airfryer until crispy then tossed in an irresistible sticky sauce with burst of tang and a hint of sweetness.

1868. Candied Walnut Salad

We had this salad on repeat during Ramadan; it was that good. The candied walnuts with the sharpness of the onion combined with the earthiness of the beetroot on a bed of mixed lettuce or peppery rocket leaves could not be beat. 

1867. Nectarine Preserves

When I see a jam or preserves recipe that has added pectin, I think that they didn't add this hundreds of years ago, so why should we now? The reality is, fruit naturally contains pectin, the component that helps a jam to gel up. Different fruit have different concentration, and hence need various simmering times. 

1866. Fava Mince Meat Rice

This is a comforting way in Arabian cuisine to present "fast food": a rice dish featuring some kind of vegetable (fava in this case, but peas, carrot, and pulses are also  common), a protein (minced meat in this case, but shredded chicken or shrimp also work), and a chockful of fried nuts (cashews here, but think: almonds, pinenuts, etc). 

1865. Turkish Chicken Carrot Soup

I love learning new recipes from the oddest of places and people; I consider it a blessing. This Turkish carrot chicken soup is apparently very common in Turkiye, and is mostly that healing chicken soup for when people get sick.

1864. Fruity Yogurt Drink

Why buy fruity yogurt drinks with tons of sugar and additives when it's so much quicker and easier to make right at home?

1863. Triple Chocolate Brownies

These triple chocolate brownies are fudgy and decadent, containing all of cocoa powder, melted chocolate, and chocolate chunks. 

1862. Shrimp Fettuccini

Shrimp pasta is something we would order outside and rarely make home. No need when it is this simple and tasty to make. 

1861. Wheetabix Overnight Yogurt

This is a healthy and nutritious way to start the day whether breakfast of suhur: layers of whole grain soaked in milk, topped with protein-rich greek yogurt, and a final touch of fruit cooked down and thickened with chia seeds and sweetened with honey. 

1860. Tallow Roast Potato

I have many potato recipes on this blog, and the reason is that this humble tuber is so versatile that there is no way to get bored of it.

1859. Fresh Coriander Paste Caprese Toast

Everyone knows a classic caprese is made of fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil. I switched things up a bit and made a fresh and vibrant coriander paste instead of traditional basil pesto for this toast. Excellent decision.

1858. Almond and Date Cookies (2 Ingredients)

These ultra simple and ultra healthy cookies are made with almonds and dates only, since salt and water barely count as ingredients. 

1857. Easy Vanilla Frosted Cake

I wanted a simple yet delicious cake to take to the beach picnic, and I found just the one. 

1856. Pumpkin Seeds and Prune Balls

These pumpkin seed and prune balls are marketed to cleanse your intestines naturally with a powerful mix of ingredients, designed to support digestion and help remove unwanted parasites. Pumpkin seeds are especially effective, as they contain compounds that can help paralyze and eliminate parasites from your body.

1855. Twice Baked Potato Gratin

It's always irritating and frankly embarrassing to serve a potato gratin that's been cooking for hours and still have a bite to it when it's supposed to be thoroughly tender. Baked sliced potato with a cup of water in the same dish they will be fully cooked in allows them to steam before adding the cream and other ingredients. 

1854. Oregano Oil Remedy

I probably should have posted this a while ago but I wanted to see if it works, and glory be to Allah, does it work! Oregano oil turned out to be this miraculous anti-viral, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory natural powerful remedy few people know of. 

1853. Mushroom Garlic Steak Bites

A perfectly seared steak is always a pleasure, but somehow there is a pressure associated with it that is completely dissolved when making steak bites. These steak bites are a cubed ribeye seared in a pan with garlic, thyme, and mushroom. 

1852. Cornflakes Brittle

This is a fun candy to make with kids. I honestly thought it would turn out better than it did, but it was enjoyable while it lasted. 

1851. Eggnog

Eggnog is a famous winter drink that is hyped up during the end of year holidays. Turns out, all this drink is, is a diluted egg custard flavored with nutmeg. 

1850. Airfried Olives and Haloomi

Somehow, the options for favorite cuisines seem to be limited to French or Italian. I seriously disagree. Arab cuisine has to be the most varied and delicious one. Maybe I am just biased. This simple mix of haloomi cheese, olives, and a few other Arab pantry staples is a fantastic example of how nutritious and delicious Arab cuisine may be. 

1849. Smeagol Eggs

I made a promise to my niece to call this recipe Smeagol Eggs. If you know, you know. But if you don't know, well, Smeagol from LOTR would sneak up on bird nests and drink the eggs. Not the most delicious analogy, but I can promise that these runny eggs are a family favorite.
