Like so many home cooks I know, it’s clear through Bishara’s stories and recipes that her food comes from a place of love for feeding family. Summer Slow-Cooking: Slow Cooker + Outdoor Grill = True Love (http://blog.foodnetwork.com/fndish/2014/07/slow-cookeroutdoor-grill-true-love/) Log In Though the finished dishes are foreign and exotic, they ring with notes of familiarity. She builds flavors using ingredients you already know and love (and probably already have in your pantry) as the foundation, then dresses them with a Middle Eastern finish you can’t resist. Maybe that’s the elegance of well-written international cuisine: At the root of every dish you can find something fairly familiar. Eggplant, an American farmers-market favorite, takes on new life in Eggplant Salad, Eggplant Napoleon and Stuffed Eggplant in Tomato Sauce. Chickpeas prove they’re good for more than just making hummus. Try them in her Chickpea and Fava Bean Breakfast. Though, if we’re being fair, Bishara’s hummus recipes are exquisite as well. She gives readers recipes for everything from stocks and sauces to the larger dishes you’ll use them in, like the vibrant and fresh Lamb and Vegetable Soup. Ease yourself into Middle Eastern food slowly, with a recipe that feels familiar to you and your family, then build your repertoire from there. Give the Brussels Sprouts with Panko (below) a try to begin, and watch your culinary world open right up.

It worked! In fact these Brussels sprouts were so delicious that they made it onto the original Tanoreen menu and I’ve never taken them off. Pour 1/4 to 1/2 inch corn oil in a large skillet and place over a high heat until hot. To test the temperature, slip half a Brussels sprout into the pan; if it makes a popping sound, the oil is hot enough. Working in batches, fry the Brussels sprouts, turning occasionally, until they are browned all over, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sprouts to a paper towellined plate to drain.
