The Middle Eastern Vegetarian Cookbook by Salma Hage - Hardcover Hardcover – Illustrated, 25 April 2016

Felt in love with this book!!!

I love this book.Tried some receipes and it was very tasty. Some needed modification of amount of ingredients.Eggplant with tomatoes and rice - Easy and very tasty, repeating this dishMsa'aa - this is my another favourite. But 200ml vegetable broth instead 100ml. Used Garam Masala + Cinnamon + Fenugreek when I didn't have Lebanese 7-spice, it worked.These were also very nice dishes,Quinoa stuffed peppersZucchini quinoa with halloumiHalloumi with Sumac and mintRoasted cauliflower with garlic-tahini dip (the amount of dip is too small for the amount of cauliflower)Lebanese vegan mousaka (too tomato taste, I reduced them a bit)Avocado tahini dip - 1 tsp honey is too sweetVegetarian koftas

Bought this as a vegan and there are so many great ideas and when a recipe isnt vegan Salma almost always offers up a great tip on how to change it to suit a plant based diet! Top marks!

This is a really nice recipe book packed with recipes that use a variety of vegetables, grains, beans, herbs and spices to suit your tastes. I often find that when I make a recipe it needs tweaking at the end, adding salt, extra salad dressing, or more spices, but nearly every one of these recipes are perfect from the first time I make them, no adjusting necessary! I'm not vegan but I noticed that lots of recipes are vegan and substitutions are suggested when the recipe isn't vegan, which is a nice touch.

Beautiful book and amazing recipes, I can't wait to try them all. I love that the measurements are given in grams also and not just cups. Many of the recipes are either vegan or can be easily veganized.

Beautiful book. I've only made a few of the recipes so far but they've all turned out really well and I'm looking forward to working my way through the book - and I'm not even a vegetarian.
