Oh it's an omelette, but so tantalising! Stuffed full of green herbs, plus a dollop of yogurt and a crimson streak of sumac to catch your eye

Kuku sabzi - love this Iranian omelette with such delicate flavours of herbs, walnut, cranberry and sumac! #nom #vegetarian #kitchendiary

A bowl of pain white something. With spring onions and curry leaves on top!

Kodo millet congee - this pure-tasting millet porridge is a great background on which to paint sharp flavours. Skirting onions, garlic, curry leaf, chilli. #kitchendiary #millet #vegan

I added the coriander, instinctively, you might say. The simple yellow soup beneath it is the star attraction.

Today's dish is "nisk", a Kurdish lentil soup. An easy recipe, that a Kurdish refugee in Britain taught to my mum. #vegan #kitchendiary

Baked feta is amazing. Too easy for such a taste! (210C 10mins. That's the recipe.) Tonight we had it with roast sweet potato, chickpeas, & parsley = #nom. #vegetarian #kitchendiary #feta

Now this is a lovely white plate with an elegant heap of levantine salad on it eh? You probably can't see the bottom layer of dark black garlic tahini, but you can see beetroot, dill, orange segments, toasted bread...

Beetroot fattoush - tried this from the new "Bubala" recipe book, and it's great. (Salt-baking beetroot seems futile - next time, just use a pack of pre-cooked!). #nom #vegan #kitchendiary

Well I don't know, what do I even see here? An incomprehensible swamp of eggs, dill and chilli, on a plate

Turkish eggs (çilbīr) - very nice brunch. It's quite a faff to prepare at home, so I think I might save it for eating out! #kitchendiary #breakfast

A dish of tempting-looking brown blobules!

Pakora of cauliflower, kale, and pomegranate seeds (oven-baked). #vegan #kitchendiary #pakora

Love to make my very fancy "Vancouver kale salad" (inspired by a meal in Vancouver years ago): cavolo nero (or #kale) in big slices, dry-stir-fried 2 mins with walnuts (or pecans).
