I have never eaten a stuffed mushroom that I liked… up until I tasted these!
I didn’t know what stuffing should I use and my sister suggested a simple cilantro, garlic and cheese stuffing and this is exactly what I did
Ingredients:
Another recipe for Ramadan.
Ingredients:
Some say egg rolls, some say spring rolls. Based on research, rice based sheets are called spring rolls and the flour based sheets that I’m using for this recipe are called egg rolls. I used Americana’s spring roll sheets… it’s flour based so I’m confused heh.. let’s just say it’s a roll and leave it at that :)
OK, let’s start!
those egg rolls are sauteed with less than 1 tbs of olive oil and the rest of the ingredients are fat free, then its brushed with olive oil and baked in the oven until it’s crispy and delicious. To retain some of the moisture, we are serving them with two different types of sauces.

Having a decent chili oil in the kitchen comes very handy sometimes. It revives most meals.. just imagine adding this oil to a plain pasta with Garlic and basil, or sauteing veggies with it or even drizzling it over labnah. yumm! excellent with meals and as dipping oil as well.
Ingredients:
Directions:
There are two ways to make this oil. You can either heat the oil and add crushed chili peppers along with everything else I mentioned then pour it in the bottle, or soak chili and spices with olive oil for 2 weeks without any type of heat.
This time, I used fresh chili, whole garlic and chopped garlic, sea salt, dried parsley, and paprika. it smells great! it’s the first time I ever use fresh chili peppers, so I don’t really know the shelf life of it. but I’ll let you know if it gets spoiled or not.
Can’t wait to use it :)
One very important tip: when dealing with fresh chili, USE GLOVES. The oil and juice gets stuck in your hands and burn them.
Bon Appetit!

I’ve tried this dish about 5 or 6 years ago. An old friend of the family brought the tiniest, softest, most delicious stuffed eggplants ever. Tasted like stuffed vine leafs ورق عنب. She left the country before we were able to get the recipe from her. This is my way of imitating it.. I kinda miss her!

I do not like eating bell peppers in any dish, unless they’re roasted.. they become all soft, glossy and sugary. Just amazing!

Here’s how you start,

I tried something new today. with yes… Mascarpone cheese again ;)
Ingredients:
I have a pound of Mascarpone cheese laying around in the fridge. Whenever I have an ingredient that’s as versatile as Mascarpone cheese, I will never stop thinking about it until I consume it all with cooking :), so I thought of many recipes, and this pizza is one of them.
