In the Middle East, cooking is a truly intuitive art form… There is a saying that if you run with your senses, especially your sense of smell, that you will find inspiration. It is never about exact measurements, and always about instinct. The Jewelled Kitchen takes you on an unforgettable adventure of Middle Eastern and North African cuisines. We are all familiar with a few mezze favourites – hummus, falafel, tabbouleh and stuffed vine leaves – but Bethany Kehdy offers up a whole host of other treasures. From Tuna Tartare with Chermoula and Sumac-Scented Chicken Parcels, to Cardamom-Scented Profiteroles and Ma'amoul Shortbread Cookies, here are mouth-watering dishes for you to try. Bethany's recipes stem from her childhood, as she mixes traditional country fare with cosmopolitan feasts, and adds contemporary twists. In this book she unveils a culinary heritage that is as rich as it is diverse.

    WHITE CABBAGE SALAD
    This salad is a wonderful accompaniment to mujadarah— a comforting Mess of Pottage (see page 169), among other dishes. You can substitute the lemon juice with apple cider vinegar for an equally delightful dressing.
    Serves 4
    Preparation time: 15 minutes
    1¼ pounds white cabbage, cut into long thin slivers
    2 tomatoes, finely chopped
    juice of 1 lemon
    1 garlic clove, finely chopped
    4 tablespoons olive oil
    sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
    1 Toss all the ingredients together. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Leave to stand 5 minutes before serving.
  • Maria Ignatovahat Zitat gemachtvor 9 Jahren
    Cooking time: 45 minutes
    3 to 6 tablespoons sunflower oil
    1 recipe quantity Parboiled Rice (see left)
    4 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat until the oil is sizzling. Using a spoon, sprinkle 4 or 5 tablespoons of the parboiled rice across the bottom of the pan. Continue sprinkling the remaining rice, building it up into a dome shape. (Tipping it all in at once will compress the rice, and the end result will not be a light and fluffy dish.)
    2 Use the handle of a wooden spoon to make three holes in the rice to the bottom of the pan. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then pour over the rice.
    3 Wrap the saucepan lid in a clean dish towel and tie it into a tight knot at the handle, then cover the saucepan with the lid as tightly as you can so any steam does not escape. (The dish towel prevents the moisture from dripping into the rice and making it soggy.)
    4 Reduce the heat to low and cook the rice, covered, 20 to 40 minutes longer. If you cook for just 20 minutes, the rice will be light and fluffy and the tahdeeg will be golden, although very loose; if you cook for the full 40 minutes, the rice will remain tender and fluffy, but the tahdeeg will be firmer and darker, which is how it would be eaten in the Middle East. The choice is yours.
    5 When the rice is cooked, place the saucepan in 2 inches cold water in the kitchen sink and leave 1 to 2 minutes. This helps to “shock” the rice and loosen the tahdeeg.
    6 Gently spoon the rice out (making sure not to disturb the tahdeeg) and sprinkle it lightly onto a dish, shaping it into a dome. Alternatively, gently tip the pan out onto the dish, allowing the rice to spill out into a mound.
    7 Remove the tahdeeg by inverting the saucepan onto a plate, using a spatula to loosen it, if necessary. Serve the tahdeeg separately on a plate or on top of the rice.
