It is a salad that surprises you so pleasantly that you are completely amazed. So I like salads of cooked vegetables. My son often laughs at me about it. Mom, you call this a salad? The answer is: yes. This is also a salad. And a fantastic one.

Zucchini, it’s a great vegetable but can be so boring. Just average. Close to nothing. And in this dish you turn weakness into strength. You let it boil down for so long until it is so incredibly tasty that you will never say zucchini is ‘mwa’ again. The creamy garlic puree makes it a whole. The pul biber slightly spicy. And the substance of the zucchini is close to perfection.

Kibbeh is so versatile. This is a great variation. With sweet potato and sun-dried tomato. It’s a smooth dish. Together with a salad you have a delicious meal that has everything in it. And it also looks spectacular.

I like to layer. That always makes a dish more interesting. And you can be a little more daring with pronounced flavors because it is balanced by another layer. It’s the same with this dish. Exciting.
