Notes from Rouba

  • You can burn your eyes if you rub them due to the heat of the pepper. Always wear gloves.

Method

Step 1.

Place the garlic, onion, and fresh chilli in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped.

Step 2.

Transfer to a pot. Season with the herbs and simmer on low heat for approximately 20 minutes, occasionally stirring, so the mixture doesn’t burn.

Remove from heat and stir through the white vinegar. Transfer to clean glass jars, and let cool. Top with olive oil before storing in the refrigerator.

With so many new followers here, today feels like the right time to reintroduce myself, as it also marks the 76th anniversary of the Nakba—a day of remembrance for the Palestinian people, including my family🇵🇸🌟 

I’m Rouba, 40+7 years young, and I’ve been happily married for 28 years🙏🏽 Those who follow my stories know my husband is quite the character, always keeping things lively 😅 We have two wonderful sons, and my mother-in-law is truly amazing—she often features in my stories ❤️

I’m a big foodie, with a special love for hummus fatteh, ofcourse the  Lebanese 🇱🇧 version 😉 it’s my absolute favourite! I believe Middle Eastern food is the yummiest in the world. 🙌🏼 And yes, I’m proudly pro-Palestine, married to a Palestinian. 

Seventy-five years ago, my husband’s grandfather and his family were evicted from their home. This history is a significant part of our lives 💔

Thanks for joining me here, where we celebrate rich flavours, vibrant stories, and the resilience of a remarkable culture.

Welcome to my journey! FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
