• Baba Ghanoush, sourced from Lebanon. Charred whole over a bare flame until the skin blisters black, then bound smooth with tahini. vegan.
• Batata Harra, sourced from Lebanon. The garlic and coriander go in off the heat, after the potatoes are already crisp. vegan.
• Falafel, sourced from Lebanon. The chickpeas are soaked raw and never cooked before grinding, which is the one rule that cannot be broken. vegan.
• Fatayer, sourced from Lebanon. Folded into a three-cornered pyramid and sealed on three seams, so it is closed where the open pie is not. vegan.
• Fatteh, sourced from Lebanon. Three layers built in the dish and never stirred together, so each spoonful goes down through all of them. vegetarian.
• Makdous, sourced from Lebanon. Boiled first, then salted and left upside down overnight to drain, because any water left in them will spoil the jar. vegan.
• Malfouf Salad, sourced from Lebanon. The cabbage is shredded hair-fine and salted so it softens without ever being cooked. vegan.
• Manakish, sourced from Lebanon. The za'atar is slaked with oil into a spreadable paste first, never scattered on dry. vegan.
• Mfarakeh, sourced from Lebanon. The egg is broken up through the crisp potatoes rather than set around them, which is what the name means. Egg, vegetarian.
• Msabbaha, sourced from Lebanon. The chickpeas are left whole and warm, swimming in the tahini rather than mashed into it. vegetarian.
• Mujaddara, sourced from Lebanon. The onions are fried until they are almost burnt, and half of them go in while half stay on top. vegetarian.
• Raheb, sourced from Lebanon. No tahini goes in at all, and the aubergine is torn into pieces rather than mashed — it is a salad, not a dip. vegan.
• Tabbouleh, sourced from Lebanon. A parsley salad with bulgur in it, not a bulgur salad with parsley on top — the proportion is the dish. vegan.
