Notes from Rouba

  • Bharat is also a 7-spice blend. You can find it at Middle Eastern grocery stores and various supermarkets. Otherwise, you can substitute with 5-spice or allspice.
  • Which variety of potatoes to use: for mash, Dutch cream is a great option and Sebago is an excellent all-rounder. Know your potato guide.

Method

Step 1.

Place the potatoes in salted boiling water. Bring to a boil until cooked through then drain.

While the potatoes are cooking, place the eggs in a small saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil, cooking until cooked through. Remove then peel.

Step 2.

There are no more steps required here. All you need to do for this recipe is combine it in the order suggested.

On a board or a plate, coarsely mash the potatoes and egg and combine well.
Season with salt, a sprinkle of cumin, and a sprinkle of Bharat/7-spice blend or Allspice.
Drizzle with good-quality olive oil.
Garnish generously with parsley and spring onion.
If you love olive oil, go ahead and drizzle some more.

That’s me at the age of 32 with Merlin, who worked closely with Palestinian families. Together, we were so excited about the project. After that unforgettable visit with Auntie Suad, I was filled with excitement about the project. The women I met were inspiring, and together we had even come up with a name for the cookbook: Taste of Palestine. 🥰🇵🇸 It was a name that captured the heart of what we wanted to share—stories, recipes, and traditions tied to the land and its people.

But for many reasons, the project didn’t go ahead. At the time, I wasn’t prepared for the reality that not everyone would understand or support what I was doing. There were people who gossiped, joked, and made me question myself. Looking back now, I see that they were the minority, but their words had a way of making me doubt myself 🥺

if this happened now—I would not have let anything stop me. This was for a good cause, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason. The project was meant to be set aside, and I needed to focus on my boys, who were still young.
A couple of years later, we received the heartbreaking news of Auntie Suad’s passing 🥲🙏🏽It felt as though a part of the story had been left unfinished. A few weeks later, something arrived in the mail that would bring me to tears 😭 There’s more 🤗
