Read MoreMY COOKBOOK - Palestine On A Plate
Hi Everyone.
Some FANTASTIC news. I have now been able to say that i am releasing my first cookbook in 2016. It will be called the same as my Instagram account "Palestine On A Plate". It is through the wonderful work of my agent Heather Holden Brown and my Publisher Jacqui Small that this amazing beauty has come to life.
I have to say that even though it is my book, it is absolutely gorgeous. I have thoroughly enjoyed writing it, doing the recipes. having to do some research on Palestine and getting very inquisitive with my family about their history.
This book will be filled with so many classics from Palestine and National dishes but most importantly many many vegetarian dishes. It is colourful and vibrant and full of flavour.

I started this app/blog with the intention to bring a voice to Palestinian Food, Culture and history. I have loved receiving all types of messages and connecting with people from all over who have shown support and some whose eyes have been opened.
