Salted Cacao Hazelnut Refrigerator Fudge

I love a little sweet after dinner or late night. This is perfect to nourish that craving! Don’t get confused between cacao powder and cocoa powder. Cacao powder is the RAW, UNROASTED natural version of cocoa powder. It is full of magnesium and is a super food.

Sides & Salads

Freekeh and Herb Salad with Yellow Beet and Labneh

Freekeh is a wheat that has been harvested early, while the grains are still tender and green. Look for fresh freekeh that has a greenish hue. You can find it in most specialty or Middle Eastern shops. Feel free to replace it with quinoa or another grain, but use only 1 cup if you are swapping it for another grain.

Fish

Greek Island Roasted Fish with Feta

I first tasted this dish in Greece and have been making it ever since. Sometimes you will see this dish made with ouzo, I use fennel to get that hint of liquorice; its signature taste. If fennel is not your thing, just leave it out. It is super easy to make as a week night meal served with a good chunk of crusty bread or rice it also works well as part of a larger buffet or mezzes meal. Try to use a cast iron pan to make this dish, it tastes so much better.

Fish

Whole Fish with Za’atar with Charred and Grated Tomato

Baking a fish whole is the best way to keep the flavour and moisture in. However, for this recipe it is easiest to have the fishmonger butterfly the fish. The head and tail is left on but the backbone is removed, leaving the fish looking like a whole fish but eliminating the boning at the end.
