I can never eat enough spinach. In every variation, this is my all-time favorite vegetable. In this pie, spinach doesn’t attract all the attention, but more than enough to please me. The caramelized onion and walnuts make it a festive little dish. It’s a winner. Delicious as an appetizer, snack or side dish.

If you love garlic, and have a little bit of patience, this is totally your recipe. You can serve this as a dip, or use it with vegetables, for example. It is a very classic Lebanese dip/sauce that is often standard on the table. Just for the sake of it. Simply because it cannot be missed.

Sometimes you think that lentils can no longer surprise you. That you now know them from all sides. And believe me, I like lentils so much that I put them on the table very often. This is a new variant. And one that we had two days in a row, we liked it that much.

I’m not a bread eater. I don’t really like bread. With the exception of a warm crispy ‘kaak’ and this bulgur bread. This is really exactly what I’m looking for in a loaf of bread. My eyes widened, my head nodded approvingly, I was in my own delicious world full of taste sensation for a few minutes before I realised again that I was sitting at the table with others. That kind of bread.
