Notes from Rouba

  • Chicken stock can also be used instead of vegetable stock.
  • Thin spaghetti works best for this recipe.

Method

Step 1.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons of salt. Cook the spaghetti according to the packet instructions. Drain.

Step 2.

Meanwhile, while the pasta is cooking, using a wok or large saucepan, add oil and Sauté the pesto, chilli, and garlic over medium heat until soft but not golden, for approximately 1 minute. Lower the heat, add balsamic vinegar and stock/water. Season with salt and simmer for approximately 10 minutes.

Step 3.

Once the pesto sauce is ready, add the sundried tomatoes and spring onion. Toss through with the spaghetti. Finish off with cracked black pepper.

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 🤗
