This is a fantastic book full of interesting facts as well as wonderful recipes. I have used many of these recipes and found them clear and easy to follow. Nice to find a beautiful and interesting "coffee table" type cookbook that is also a practical and useful recipe book.

A brilliant book if you like Middle Eastern food (or just want a change) - or are interested in the history and culture(s). Delicious food, mostly easy to cook, as well as more challenging dishes and fascinating background. I particularly like Mutabbal (an Aubergine dip).

Some excellent vegetarian recipes as well.
