Cooking from Jehanne’s Mini Cook Books

As the evening sky turned colorful, my home was full of excitement. Delicious smells of food filled the air because it was almost Iftar time. It is the time during Ramadan when people end their day-long fast. We are busy hosting a small get-together with our nearest friends and family to enjoy Iftar together.

In the busy kitchen, my mom was in charge of cooking the main dish. She was using her cooking skills to make a meal full of different flavors that everyone would enjoy. At the same time, my aunt was preparing small appetizers, to start off the big meal we were going to have.

And there I was, thinking about what sweet dish to choose to end the meal. We often have the same desserts at our celebrations: kheer, carrot halwa, gulab jamuns or kesari. But that night, I wanted my dessert to be new, simple yet surprising and delightful for our Iftaar party.

Thanks to the mini cookbooks from Dr. Jehanne Ali, a gem amongst my friends and a pillar of inspiration. Her multifaceted life as a skilled cardiac doctor, linguist, and now a cookbook author is nothing short of remarkable. Her latest ventures, four elegant mini cookbooks — are a testament to her unending passion for heart-healthy and tempting recipes.
