Roasted Eggplant with Tehina - Aubergine Biladi

Here’s a must-have Israeli appetizer - smoky eggplant with tehina. It’s traditionally prepared over an open flame which gives it that very characteristic taste. We love it with a bit of tomato, plenty of tehina and cilantro. The result is melt-in-your-mouth and creamy. If you think you don’t like eggplant, give it a chance with this recipe!

Egg Salad - Kosher English-Style

I discovered this egg salad in London, where the English traditionally eat it in sandwiches. I absolutely love this salad - it’s more flavorful than our classic egg-mayo thanks to the addition of green onions and mustard. I also add a finely minced shallot, and it’s always devoured in moments, even by the kids. You can enjoy it on bread, challah, or use it to fill appetizer bites.
