This is the original Lebanese recipe which is found in the Middle East in places like Lebanon and in Lebanese restaurants. It tastes delicious and is healthy because you don't use the chicken skin. If you make it, I'd like to know what you think

Dal with cauliflower and carrots

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Dal is one of the staples of Indian cooking. Traditionally it has a sauce-like consistency, but here chunky vegetables have been added to turn it into a more substantial dish – ideal as part of a vegetarian meal. You can vary the vegetables as you wish, as long as they are cut up quite small so that they cook quickly.

This is an easy and delicious "sweet" that is a little different!

Fig rolls

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

Here's a classic – a crisp, shortbread pastry wrapped around a rich fig filling. The natural sweetness and full flavour of dried figs need little embellishment other than lemon juice to add a zesty tang.

Grilled figs with ricotta

This is a popular Pakistani rice pudding, flavoured with cardamon and rose water. Serve warm or cold.

Onion Bhajis

Recipe by: Natasha

These are rather typical onion bhajis, but I spice them up with minced chillies. Besan is ground chickpea flour; it's also known as gram flour, and you can find it at Asian shops.

Chunks of lean lamb are gently simmered with dates in a richly spiced gravy, then piled atop couscous and pistachio nuts, and sprinkled with pomegranate seeds. Serve this exotic dish for a special family meal or a make-ahead dish for entertaining, accompanied by some Arabic flat bread and a simple leafy green salad.
