An Egyptian Feast - Day One Recipe
Some of you have seen me include projects from my nephew and niece, Brandon and Kaela, before. Although only 7 and 6 years old respectively, these two know their way around a kitchen and have been cooking for several years now.
They are currently learning about Egyptian culture with their mum, Sam, and so decided to cook her an vegetarian Egyptian feast. And what a feast!
The menu for the evening:
Egyptian Vegetarian Feast
- Stuffed Dates
- North African Cauliflower Soup
- Cucumber-Feta Salsa with Pita Crisps
- Spicy Chickpeas
- Pistachio Couscous
- Basboosa (Honey-Lemon Semolina Cake)
- So let's get started with our Stuffed Dates:
This is an easy one for kids to make and just three ingredients.
Pitted Dates
Walnut or Pecan pieces
Dried Coconut
Open up the dates. Stuff a nut in the middle of each, and then roll in coconut.
Tomorrow, we'll watch Brandon and Kaela make their Cauliflower Soup.
