Nihal Rabbani: Arabic farewell breakfast with Mara – Shakshuka (eggs poached in a sauce of vine tomatoes with sliced red bell peppers, chopped onions, ground red paprika, cumin, black pepper, pink Himalayan salt, Moroccan olive oil, bay leaves, a cinnamon stick and cayenne pepper); chopped cilantro; different types of bread; Jordanian zaatar; organic Spanish olive oil; white grapes; hummus seasoned with coriander and lime juice (from the Moroccan deli stall at the open-air market); Arbequina olives, home-made labneh from goat yogurt curd; semi-mature Dutch cheese from Northern Holland, accompanied by pomegranate-raspberry juice. I’m kind of sad that this weekend went by so quickly!
