Showing: A Vegetable Stew - Tabakh Rohoo - Bechamel Chicken Pasta

A Vegetable Stew - Tabakh Rohoo

Submitted by: Almalou
Home Town: Saint Helena, California, USA
Living In: Amman, Amman, Jordan
This is an Arabic vegetable stew made in layers and served with steamed rice or bulgur. My Damascene sister in law recently showed me how to make this. It is delicious. The addition of ghee or rendered butter at the end of the cooking is a traditional Damascene style of cooking; however, these days these dishes are made without the extra fat.

This traditional favorite comes from the northern mountain towns of Algeria. A humble, unleavened semolina flatbread compliments a zesty, roasted red-pepper sauce. The combination is fresh, simple and satisfying. 

Apple and Honey Sorbet

Submitted by: MALKALEVADOM
This is the sorbet I served on Rosh Hashana meal between first and main course. It is white flecked with bright green, tangy from the green apples, and sweet with honey. Fresh and fabulous. Shana Tova! I recommend eucalyptus blossom honey, easily found in Israel.

Authentic Middle Eastern Hummus (Chummus)

Submitted by: Simone
Home Town: Silver Spring, Maryland, USA
Living In: Tel Aviv, Mehoz Tel-Aviv, Israel
Authentic chummus is very different and SO much tastier than it's American counterpart. This chummus is creamy and delicate in taste rather than overpowered with garlic or thick and pasty. It is eaten warm, fresh, and as a whole meal spread out in a dish and drizzled with fresh olive oil. It is scooped up with pita, raw onion slices, or just a fork. Do NOT use canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans)! 

Baba Ghanoush

Submitted by: Paige
We think that parties and pita bread were made for this eggplant - based dip. Baked, peeled and cooled eggplants are mated with lemon juice, yogurt, tahini, olive oil ...and a few other ingredients. A stint in the frig and it 's ready to dip into.
