Middle Eastern food draws on the exotic taste of various styles of cooking and combines them in a blend of unusual yet simple tastes for mouthwatering dishes. Middle Eastern food is easy to prepare, wonderful to look at and offers an amazing variety of healthy dishes, making it the ideal cooking style for the health-conscious. In "Zamman Middle Eastern Cookbook", you will discover the rich, aromatic flavours of countries where food is an intrinsic part of the culture and the sharing of meals with family and guests is a feature of daily life.  Many people associate the word ‘gourmet’ with cholesterol-laden and not particularly healthy dishes served in expensive restaurants. It’s very tasty, but only to be eaten on special occasions. No more. The book presents a new concept in the Middle Eastern cuisine, which is known as very healthy. A cuisine with a rich variety of tastes, fine dishes that are easy to prepare, and the freedom to enjoy an excellent meal every day – and stay healthy. Middle Eastern cuisine is based on the following principles: Fresh and top quality ingredients, which can be purchased in any local store and market. Avoidance of deep-frying. Avoiding the use of ingredients that are high in saturated fats (red meat, cream, butter etc.) Simple preparation processes, cooking with equipment available in every home, and quick cooking. In this book you will find dozens of recipes and suggestions for including the recipes in gourmet home meals to serve to guests, on the holidays, as fast meals prepared after the day’s work, and for children.
