    Lunch 2020

    Falafel, lacouch bread, tahini, yogurt, schug, pickles, tomatoes. I'm not a huge fan of "falafel sandwich" (where the falafel is placed in a bread with the veggies and sauces). It's OK, but I much prefer my falafel served as a side dish / appetizer (or only dish, as I did today).

    Dinner 2020

    Thanks! I was inspired by a dish I once had where eggs were pouched shakshuka style in a sauce of cream and thin bachamel, with plenty of mushrooms. Poaching the eggs allows them to be cooled before topping with the sauce and broiling, so that they are cooked to the desired doneness.

    Lunch 2020

    Dinner 2020

    Baked sambusak filled with feta, boiled eggs, tomatoes, chickpeas, zaatar, fresh chili, onion. Served with pickles, schug and tahini. Baked two of those, they are a bit over sized.
  17. I always try and minimize the amount of leftover rice, but my way of reheating it works quite well, IMO. Sprinkle the rice with water (maybe a tsp per cup of cooked rice), then cover and microwave until it's boiling hot. Let it chill a little (covered) until cool enough to eat.

    Dinner 2020

    Thanks! The egg salad is made Japanese by using Japanese mayo Best used for making Japanese egg salad sandwich with some fluffy white bread.

    Dinner 2020

    Thanks! The egg salad is super basic - don't over boil the eggs, mash the yolks with Japanese mayo until smooth and fluffy (regular mayo will still be good), add a little rice/cider vinegar (to taste), salt, pepper, maybe a little chili. Then mix in the chopped whites. I'll try to remember and post the challah recpie later.

    Shakshuka sandwich. Some of the sauce of I froze a few weeks ago. Scrambled eggs a-la menemen (the usual runny sauce-poached egg would require a different type of bread). Tahini sauce and a little extra schug.

    Breakfast 2020!

    I love this pairing as well. One of my favorite snacks / light breakfasts is cornflakes with bananas, milk and peanut butter.

    Dinner 2020

    Thanks! The mix is sirene, mozzarella, cottage, egg and milk. Salt, pepper, a bit of tarragon and coriander seeds. The dough is a pasta dough, but a little more hydrated. Traditional recipes calls for boiling the dough sheets, but the wetter mixture made this unnecessary.
