2023. Iraqi Potato Omelette

This Iraqi potato omelette is as simple as it can get and an old family favorite. The hardest part is making sure the potatoes are fully cooked through before cracking in the eggs.

2022. Tuna and White Bean Salad

Besides making the dressing, this tuna and white bean salad is little more than an assembly job.

2021. Asparagus Butter Pasta

I have used the butter pasta recipe so much since Ramadan as it is a quick and delicious and easy dish to make any time.

2020. Pickle Juice Chicken Bites

Pickle juice chicken bites are bite-sized pieces of chicken breast marinated in dill pickle brine to keep them incredibly tender and juicy, then breaded and cooked to golden perfection.

2019. Bakewell Tart

This Bristish classic is an almond tart that first has a layer of tangy raspberry jam before adding the frangipane in a crispy shortcrust pastry shell.

2018. Garlic Butter Broiled Shrimp with Cream Sauce

I saw an alcoholic version of this that looked so good I had to replicate it, but halal-ified.

2017. Cabbage Miso Pasta

While scrolling Instagram, I found four different versions of this recipe in a row, so I figured it must be worth trying with all those rave reviews. I was seriously disappointed.

2016. Garlic Butter Steak Bites

These garlic butter steak bites are my favorite for a quick meal with some pasta or a salad.

2015. Jarcuterie

At first, this seemed to me like one big American mess. Leave it to the Americans to take a refined concept (charcuterie board) and downgrade it to a common item (jarcuterie).

2014. Pomegranate Chicken Liver

Yes, this is a recipe for pomegranate molasses chicken liver, but it is also a technique for zankha-free chicken livers.

2013. Chicken, Cranberry, and Quinoa Salad

This salad is fresh, crunchy, and actually fills you up, it's not just a side salad that's there for decoration.

2012. Crispy Chicken Parmesan Smash Tacos

Since the smash kaftas of yesteryear, the concept of smash anything makes the world your oyster.

Let's support Algeria! Algeria makes this amazing hazelnut butter spread, think: kinder bueno filling.

2009. Steak & Balsamic Onion Sandwich

Juicy steak cooked to perfection, finished with sweet balsamic shallots and a punchy garlic mayo, all packed into golden toasted ciabatta.

2008. Easy Breezy Lettuce Salad

An absolutely ridiculous "trendy" recipe was nagging at me on social media. Everywhere I would turn, it's there, taunting me. They call this "viral" recipe "Life Changing Lettuce" which is what is so ridiculous to me.

2007. Chicken Puffs

Chicken mince with breadcrumbs and fried spring onion, and little cubes of cheese, all wrapped up in puff pastry that can be prepped ahead and frozen.

2006. Merguez Toast Appetizers

I'm on something of a merguez kick of late, and have zero regrets.
