Arabesque: A Taste of Morocco, Turkey and Lebanon

Claudia Roden

‘Arabesque’ is a tribute to the culinary histories and contemporary food of these fascinating countries, from the mezze dishes of Turkey and the sweet pastries of Lebanon to the unmistakable flavours and spices of Morocco.

Inside you will find carefully curated histories, anecdotes and – most importantly – delicious recipes:

from Morocco. . . tomatoes stuffed with roast peppers, tuna, capers and olives, lamb tagine with potatoes, and peas and walnut pastries in honey syrup.

From Turkey. . . creamy filo spinach pie, roast chicken with pine nuts and raisin pilaf, and pistachio cake.

From Lebanon. . . traditional tabbouleh, pan-fried red mullet with tahini sauce, and almond puff pastry pies.

In her inimitable style, in ‘Arabesque’ Claudia Roden has created a passionate, evocative book full of stories, memories and delicious food.
