If you want to bake the ataif, you can bake it at 450 for 20 minutes, and yes use butter spray or brush them with melted butter. If you want a more authentic filling check out my written recipe on my site for the original ashta filling :)
Happy COo…
HI Patty,
I'm so glad you like my recipes and find them to be familiar :)
Honestly, I know a couple of lentil soup recipes, but I don't know this one, BUT I will ask my mom about it, I'm sure she knows it and I'll get back to you soon :)
Happy COO…
HI Ave,
THank you so much for your support. YES, I will definitely have my website manager look into getting the captions for the videos. Wonderful idea!
Happy Cooking

Well, I'm not sure that honey mustard and ranch is Mediterranean, but it could be a type of gallaba, which is Middle Eastern stir fry with a tomato sauce. I will be making this soon, but in the mean time you can just cook some some chicken olive oil…
HI VIcki,
It is 2 teaspoons, I apologize, I did mis-speak in the video. The written recipes are always correct :)
I hope the dinner is wonderful, I'm sure it will be!

HI Cindi, it's the same recipe, it's just when you soak the chick peas and fava beans they double in size. If you don't have fava beans you can just use chick peas as well. If you want to bake them then just preheat the oven to 450 degrees and spray…
I think you may be thinking of halawet el jibn, that is a wonderful string cheese dessert, it can be served alone in string pieces or rolled with a custard ashta filling. Check out the recipe on my site and let me know.

Hi Ladies, wonderful tips! Leanne, your method is exactly like my recipe, and yes, letting the dough rise a 2nd time is very important, you can even let it rise a 3rd time after you roll out the pitas as well to ensure it puffs up :)
Dede
Also if your blender or processor gets hot warm or hot it will separate
I think basboosa is similar to namoura, check out my namoura recipe :)
You are so welcome, thanks for the great commentary on the sandwich, I am glad you approve. It is so much cheaper to make it at home and you can eat as many as you want :)
Happy Cooking!
Dede :)
HI Diana,
Shanklish is pretty much labne but it is dried longer in the cheese cloth and rolled in thyme, mint and oregano then set on a plate to dry for a day in the refrigerator. I will be making a shanklish video really soon, I promise :)

HI Faheem
I think spring roll sheets may be too thick, but you can definitely give it a try and let me know how it turns out. You can try to use 2 sheets of puff pastry if you can't find phyllo dough, use one layer for the bottom, add the nuts and…
Yes, chick peas are the same as garbonzo beans so yes you can use them. It will taste great.
I hope you enjoy the recipe :)
Dede :)
You should use the same shawarma marinade that is in my recipe on the site. THe garlic sauce recipe is on my site as well...as for garlic cheese sauce, I'm not sure what that is, is it Mediterranean or Middle Eastern?
check out the written recipe on my site, it works out great :)

I feel like I know you so well...which just makes me love this sight even more. I am always sharing your website with others and probably checking your website like everyday to see new recipes or comments or ideas etc. I am just so happy for you and not that this has anything to do with cooking but you and your hubby look so cute together aw... :) but back to shawarma on the base.. what an excellent idea! I wish you the best and congrats again and just thanks for everything. Im so happy for you! Take care.

- LOL thanks! That makes me feel SO good especially coming from you! I do not cook that much food on a daily basis that was for a large party and it took me two days to be prepared for that, but you helped me so THANK YOU! I do cook daily for my husband but not that much food (lol) and I have you to thank for really teaching me Arabic food, you are a staple in my kitchen.
You have no idea how long I have been looking for an English speaking Arabic cook, recipes, something – anything. I stumbled upon you by accident off Google and thank God I did because you have made sense of all these Arabic recipes I have had for years and all the spices from over seas. Seriously you have no idea what a life saver you are and you make everything so simple, tasty, beautiful, and more.
I wish you nothing but the best and I can't wait to see you on TV and to buy a recipe book. I share your website with everyone that asks me how to make something, I even have friends and family from over seas that come here and ask me how to make a dish which I learned from you, and I send them to your site. I and my friends and family are some of your biggest fans so you have support from Oklahoma, Texas, Syria and Lebanon. Thanks again.
BTW: I love your pilot, the new hummus with meat video, the new kitchen, and the new look - all is awesome!

Love your site and that's why I decided to become a member. I love your style and I think you could be very successful in presenting on TV like Rachel Ray.

Dawn Nazha said… - Hello dede: I am sure you have heard this so many times, but your videos are really helpful and informative. I have really learned so much from you. I, of course was taught the basics by my husband, but he is not a syrian wife, so I am trying to learn everything I can from your videos. You can not know what a blessing it is for me to be able to make the foods from my husband's country. This makes my husband not miss home or his mother so much. THANK YOU!
