Description


Bid now to share a detailed Arabic cooking lesson with Salma Abu Ayyash on a weekend evening or afternoon . She will bring all ingredients and spices needed to create your culinary masterpiece. This would take place in your kitchen. You will be working with Salma for approx. 4-5 hours during which time you will make enough for two people. You will prepare two appetizers, a soup and two main dishes with all of their accouterments, and a dessert. The meals can be frozen to save them for a future meal.  Here are some suggestions:


 


Appetizers: Tabbouleh (the right way), spicy fried tomatoes, bean dip (foul mudammas), fried eggplant salad, roasted zucchini with special yoghurt sauce.


Soup: Freekeh (a hearty soup of green roasted wheat and either meat balls or chicken), simple vegetable soup, lentil soup, chicken soup


Main dishes: mloukhieh (Green Mallow with chicken), Okra with meat,  green fava beans (seasonal), lamb chops Arabic style, Maftoul (Arabic couscous) with chicken, stuffed cabbage or grape leaves, Fatteh (thin bread in broth over rice) with chicken, Mujaddarah, stuffed fried Zucchini in a yoghurt sauce. 


 


Salma can make 'almost' everything vegetarian and can discuss food allergies, HOWEVER, you can't say "I don't like garlic or onions "…


Salma is a Palestinian American, born in Jordan, who came to the US to further her education and ended up staying and making a new home for herself in Cambridge MA. She is currently on the faculty of Roxbury Community College, teaching Math and Engineering courses.
