Lebanese Cuisine

Winner of the Gourmand Cookbook Award

Lebanon offers a unique variety of fragrant and refined dishes, enriched over centuries by new flavours and spices brought by traders from across the Mediterranean. Appreciated the world over, Lebanese cuisine is renowned for its savoury and sweet specialities: from falafel, tabbouleh, spicy grills and simmered stews, to succulent rose and pistachio pastries.

Andree Maalouf and Karim Hadar (Comptoir Libanais) share this rich culinary heritage through more than one hundred easy-to-follow recipes, along with an explanation of key ingredients and their place in Lebanese cooking. Traditional recipes have been subtly re-interpreted with a modern twist, which will delight lovers of Lebanese cuisine of all generations.

This is authentic Mediterranean food at its best perfect for everyday eating and entertaining alike.
