Rich eggplant and tomato moussaka, light and lemony cauliflower, and juicy seasoned chicken make up this decadent and garlicky Lebanese feast
Try making these healthy, flavourful Lebanese recipes for dinner tonight
I love trying foods from different cultures and Lebanese food is right up there on my list of favourites. I wanted a little inspiration so I took a few Lebanese cookbooks out from the library and had dinner at Nuba, an amazing Lebanese restaurant with four locations in Vancouver.
Najib’s Special is one of my favourite dishes at Nuba. It’s a roasted cauliflower dish with lemon, sea salt and tahini that I tried to copy for this meal.
We also had an amazing kebab plate called the Chicken Tawook, with succulent chunks of white meat seasoned in paprika, thyme, lemon and garlic. For this meal I found a slightly different chicken kebab recipe in The Lebanese Cookbook that was also delicious.
The eggplant tomato recipe in The Lebanese Cookbook really caught my eye, and even though it took a little extra work and caused my dirty dish pile to be a little higher when all was said and done, it was totally worth it – I swooned at every bite.
