Dessert

Italian Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake with Blackberry Coulis

An Italian cheesecake is typically made with ricotta cheese. It is not overly sweet and slightly drier than a traditional cheesecake. This cake is best made the day before you want to serve it. The Blackberry Coulis really adds a nice touch. You can use frozen raspberries if you can find blackberries.

Sides & Salads

Zucchini Quinoa Fritters

These little zucchini quinoa gems are super easy and freeze so well. They are too delicious to save only for passover, use them all year ‘round. If you like, the addition of about 1 cup of cheese to this mixture is great as well!

Green Zhoug

Zhoug is a bright green herbed condiment from Yemen that you will find at every restaurant or home in Israel. It is somewhat of a national chili paste. It is super spicy and fantastic added to any dip on the side. My favourite recipe is this one, from Ottolenghi. I love eating this alongside cooked tomatoes and tahini such as in the recipe Chicken Kebabs with Grated Tomato Harissa, Delicious Dish or with the Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini and Pomegranate, Delicious Dish.
