Pickled cauliflower, butterbean purée, charred lettuce, and za'atar flatbread - #nom! I wouldn't have understood this at all a few years ago, but these flavours are fabulous. Inspired by Bubala restaurant I guess. #vegetarian #kitchendiary

We made rumaniyya again - this delicious sour aubergine & lentil stew from Gaza. Thank you! https://hostux.social/@nomnomdan/112627770693059769 #nom #vegan #gaza #kitchendiary

Bank holiday baking: Italian cantucci biscuits :) #nom #kitchendiary #italian #baking

Kuku sabzi - love this Iranian omelette with such delicate flavours of herbs, walnut, cranberry and sumac! #nom #vegetarian #kitchendiary

Kodo millet congee - this pure-tasting millet porridge is a great background on which to paint sharp flavours. Spring onions, garlic, curry leaf, chilli. #kitchendiary #millet #vegan

Some nice dishes we cooked recently: aubergine lemon tagine, BBQ jackfruit, moussaka, baked halloumi with black seed honey glaze, African peanut stew (maafe), shepherd's pie, butterbean gratin, kuku sabzi, mushroom cobbler, jacket potato! #vegetarian #kitchendiary #happymemories

#kitchendiary: Haggis flatbread (still working on my technique for this!) served with beetroot borani (a lively middle Eastern dip). #nom #vegan

BBQ-style jackfruit and cashews, with coleslaw and flatbreads. #nom #vegetarian #kitchendiary

Baked feta is amazing. Too easy for such a taste! (210C 10mins. That's the recipe.) Tonight we had it with roast sweet potato, chickpeas, & parsley = #nom. #vegetarian #kitchendiary #feta

Recipe development: Haggis flatbread... Been keen to try this for a while. First attempt was unanimously declared "not bad"! #vegetarian #haggis #kitchendiary

Made "full medames" for the first time, the famous bean dish of Egypt. (Made the Gaza version, from the v interesting Gaza Kitchen cookbook I mentioned before). Good filling food! But I need some expert tips on how to make it fab. #kitchendiary #vegan #levantine

Easiest quick flatbread recipe: http://mcld.co.uk/blog/2024/easiest-quick-flatbread-recipe.html I discovered, in an "emergency", that you can make #flatbread with an absolutely minimal #recipe that's short enough to memorise. Been practising it ever since. #kitchendiary

Another crazy idea for the centerpiece of a vegetarian roast dinner! And yummy, too. Feta, roast squash, parsley, strawberry, lemon juice, sumac. The citrussy dressing brings those summer flavours out. #vegetarian #kitchendiary #roastdinner #nom

Another naive #millet experiment: kodo millet #congee (20g millet, 270g water, 30 minutes). It absorbs SO much water! Hard to believe it will absorb 12--15 times its own weight - you'll think the measurements are wrong, but no!
Tasting notes: plain #kodo really tastes to me like pudding rice. Against tamarind, it highlights its sweetness. Against kimchi it's just bland/tasteless. Against sweet chilli sauce, it's nutty! #kitchendiary #iym2023
