This cookbook is a fascinating and mouth-watering celebration of Saudi Arabia's astonishing culinary diversity and traditions. Madeeha Qureshi presents over 100 easy, generous and heartfelt recipes, which are authentic and modern at the same time. More than this, The Red Sea Cookbook is a daughter's moving tribute to the redemptive power of cooking and to her father's memories. Through incredibly delicious condiments, small plates, salads, mains, cakes and bakes, desserts and drinks, explore the historic voyage of ingredients and how food passes through generations. Each recipe brings to life the generosity of the beautiful land and people of Saudi Arabia. This is a one-of-a-kind treasure trove of flavours and aromas.
