A great twist on meatballs for a quick and tasty supper
A useful, no-hassle, chuck-everything-in-together dish, you don’t even need to brown the chicken (though make sure you sprinkle the skin with sea salt flakes, to help it crisp up). Find a dish that has about the right dimensions, to ensure that it works well. Don’t be afraid of assertive seasoning – rice dishes such as this need it – and don’t skip the step where you wash the rice, or it will end up sticky. A bowl of Greek yogurt is good on the side.
Super hearty, delicious and fuss-free. Imagine tender chicken and lots of creamy white beans simmered a tomatoey broth. Extra bonus? It’s ready in 30 minutes, made in one pot and requires minimal prep. Serve with rice or a side of crusty bread for a satisfying crowd-pleasing dinner.

This is just wonderful when you have friends over in summer, though not to be discounted for the rest of the year, either. There was a time I cooked it just about every two weeks, and it's an easy habit to get into! It’s simple: the chicken deeply spiced with za’atar, that wonderful Middle-Eastern spice blend comprising thyme, sesame seeds and ground sumac, itself a glorious blood-red berry with an intensely astringent lemony tang; the salad a fresh tangle of mint, parsley, cucumber, tomato and spring onions, crumbled with torn shards of toasted pitta and sprinkled, again, with sumac. To be entirely proper, you should throw in some leafy, herbal purslane, too, but unless you happen to live near a Middle-Eastern shop, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to get your hands on any, so I haven’t listed it below. The chicken, once cooked, does go an unphotogenically dark colour, but that is divinely matched by such depth of flavour. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

Now, there are those who like their Anzac biscuits crisp, and those — like me — who like them on the chewier side (I also like mine made with sprouted oats). To accommodate both tastes, I have cooked those you see in the picture in 3 different ways. On the left, the crispest biscuit, cooked with regular oats, for 12 minutes; in the middle, biscuits made with sprouted oats and cooked for 12 minutes; and on the right, my biscuits of choice, using sprouted oats and cooked for 10 minutes. However, don’t get hung up on the sprouted oat issue. A far more decisive factor is the cooking time. Those with hotter ovens than me may find the range closer to 8–10 minutes than 10–12.

You do not have to be a devout Christian to observe Pancake Day. I couldn't let the date pass without making a batch of these: it would seem a sin against tradition, nature and greed, that other holy trinity. They're not difficult to make — just your basic crepes — and you can fill them however you like. I have to have mine as I always did as a child, that's to say, sprinkled with granulated sugar and squeezed with lemon juice. But we live in a more vulgar age now, and my children like theirs spread with Nutella. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

I’m a fan of scooping up relatively dry but still succulent, gently spiced minced (ground) meat with pliable, puffy or flaky bread. Even more so if eggs are involved. When craving this sort of thing, makhlama lahm (sometimes called ‘Iraqi eggs’) hits the spot every time.
This Middle Eastern Chicken with Potatoes is oven roasted for an easy and flavorful weeknight dinner!
This is a dish you could make vegetarian or omnivore but I chose to make a chicken version of this dish. It's a Palestinian dish called makloubeh (or maklouba, maklube or maqluba) with fragrantly spiced chicken, soft cauliflower, creamy eggplant and aromatic rice all stacked in layers. Cooked upside down so that the rice steams on top of the layers of chicken and vegetables, you simply flip it upside down when ready so that the chicken sits on top and it looks like a rice cake. It is surprisingly easy and designed to impress. Traditionally it is meant to be eaten with the hands with some flat bread. I first tried it in Oman as a prawn makloubeh and it was fantastic with some yogurt dip.
