Example text

Take musakhan, for instance. While popular in both Palestine and Jordan, ask a Palestinian and they will swear it’s their own culinary treasure. Middle Eastern food has also been influenced by visiting cultures, as peoples from both East and West have danced and mingled on Middle Eastern soil, each leaving behind a footprint from its own tradition without troubling the fundamental flavours. For example, Persian, Iraqi and Gulf cuisines share many similarities and, while they also show traces of Mediterranean influences, they are, in particular, more abundant in meat, overflowing with rice dishes, and have taken much of their use of spices from India.

Serve immediately or at room temperature with a Yogurt, Cucumber and Mint Salad and warm Arabic Bread. Venison & Sour Cherry Nests I’ve strayed from tradition here, as kebab karaz, as it’s known in Syria, is usually made with veal or lamb served on Arabic bread. The sour cherry native to the Middle Eastern region is small and dark crimson-red, and its kernels are ground to make an aromatic powder, known as mahlab, which is used to flavour breads and sweets. I’ve made the sauce with morello cherries, although you can use fresh sour cherries when in season, or dried sour cherries soaked in water overnight.

Listen to the bubbling liquid, look at the vibrant colours, feel the texture but, above all, smell the aromas and taste your dish as you cook – you can’t taste too much. Only then will you be able to see if your meal needs more nurturing or if it just wants to be left alone. Whether you are cooking for your immediate family or a crowd of friends, the objective is to create an enjoyable meal that evokes comfort and happiness. As you’ve heard many others say, cooking is meant to be fun, not serious.
