Canadian-born California chef, Heba Safey Eldeen, has released a new cookbook that brings a taste of Egypt to home kitchens across the country. In an interview with Fox News, Eldeen shared her favorite childhood recipe from the book, a dish called “Koshary.”
Koshary is a popular Egyptian street food dish made with a hearty combination of rice, lentils, and pasta, topped with a spicy tomato sauce and fried onions. Eldeen recalls enjoying this dish with her family while growing up in Egypt, and she hopes to share a bit of her heritage with readers through her cookbook.
The chef, who moved to California with her family at a young age, has always been passionate about cooking and preserving the flavors of her homeland. In her cookbook, she offers a variety of traditional Egyptian recipes, as well as modern twists on classic dishes.
Eldeen’s cookbook not only provides delicious recipes but also offers a glimpse into the rich culinary history of Egypt. She hopes to educate readers about the diverse flavors and ingredients that make Egyptian cuisine unique.
For Eldeen, cooking is not just about the food but also about the memories and connections made around the dinner table. She believes that sharing a meal with loved ones is one of the most meaningful experiences in life.
With her new cookbook, Heba Safey Eldeen invites readers to explore the vibrant and delicious world of Egyptian cuisine from the comfort of their own homes. Whether you are an experienced cook or just starting out in the kitchen, her recipes are sure to inspire and delight.
