Notes from Rouba

  • Use Jasmine rice for a floral flavour in your pudding.
  • Oat milk or coconut milk can be used as dairy-free alternatives due to their higher fat percentage.
  • Taste the rice once the water is absorbed as cooking time may vary among rice brands. Add more water if needed.
  • Stir regularly when making rice pudding for the perfect creamy consistency.

Method

Step 1.

Place the rice in a saucepan with 2 cups of water, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook on low uncovered for approximately 30 minutes.

Step 2.

Stir in the milk and sugar. Scrape out the vanilla pod and add it to the rice mixture along with the pod. Cook uncovered on very low heat for approximately 30 minutes or until rice is cooked through stirring regularly.

Step 3.

Turn off the heat and stand for 5 minutes before folding in the whipped cream.

Step 4.

Serve in a large bowl or individual serving dishes. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
Layer with whipped cream and strawberries before serving

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 🤗 #recipes #recipeshare #homecooked #homecooking

A week later, and I’m still in awe of that night. Sharing more original videos...

I walked into Auntie Suad’s home with my tape recorder, my notes, and so much excitement. It was the first time we meet. We made a cup of tea, and she began sharing stories about her favourite recipes. I was amazed to hear how, back in Palestine, she’d make pasta from scratch and hang it on the clothes line to dry 🍝 Our conversation kept drifting between her memories of life in Palestine, the struggles her family endured, and her love for food 🇵🇸🤍 Hours passed without either of us noticing. And Just before I left, I asked her for her favourite recipe. She’d shared so much already, but then she brought out her cookbook. I was in awe—each page covered in food stains, a lifetime of meals captured in that book. I asked if I can take a photo But Auntie Suad insisted she’d write the recipes out for me instead. “It’s too dirty,” she said, clearly embarrassed. I told her that was what made it beautiful, but I didn’t want to pressure her. I left, touched by her stories. The cookbook that would bring me to tears, but I didn’t know it yet - Stay tuned for Part 3. #food #memories #stories #recipeshare

Dropping the very first photo I ever shared of myself here! But let’s focus on the story, not the changes since then, okay? 😉 Six years ago, I started this journey, so I thought it was time to share the story behind it. This path wasn’t something I simply chose; it felt like it chose me. There were signs, so many signs, all pointing me here. It all started like 20 years ago when I was asked by an occupational therapist—a woman who worked with Palestinian families and visited Gaza with her husband annually to help. She believed a cookbook could raise funds, and since I spoke Arabic and loved cooking, she asked if I’d help put it together. My role was to gather Palestinian women, listen to their stories, and collect their recipes. That’s how I met incredible women, each with unique memories tied to their food. But one visit, in particular, stood out—a visit to an 80-year-old Palestinian woman named Auntie Suad. She wasn’t my biological aunt, but her passion for food and tradition was inspiring. I was excited to meet her, but I was told to keep it short—she tired easily and needed rest. Little did I know, this visit would spark something I hadn’t even imagined yet. Stay tuned for Part 2 ❤️ #journey #foodjourney #mystory #thewhy

If you’re thinking of wishing me well, I ask for just one thing: Wish for peace. Wish for a free Palestine 🇵🇸 Wish for an end to the war, an end to the genocide.

It’s with a heavy heart that I continue sharing recipes while knowing that people are being DELIBARTELY STARVED. Please correct the language around you – they are not starving, they are being starved. The guilt weighs heavily, but the reality is, I have to keep posting. I’m not here to justify or explain why, because, honestly, I’m mentally drained. Today, I’m sharing a recipe that brings comfort in tough times. The best ever pistachio rose brownies and so easy to make. These brownies are just the right amount of squidgy on the inside with a lovely crust on the top. The raspberries add a little tartness and cut through the chocolate nicely, which goes perfectly with the brownie. Comment 'Rose Brownies' for your recipe card.

When people ask me, ‘Is your family okay?’ I want to scream that the people you see on your screens are all my family. Every person, every child, every home — they are my people, my family. 💔 We have run out of words for what we’ve witnessed and continue to witness. Today, I’m being honest with you all: my sadness has turned into anger, my heartbreak into frustration. I feel a mix of helplessness, rage, and deep sorrow, wanting to scream at someone, to shout at the injustice. But instead, I need to channel this energy elsewhere. Let’s help each other out — how do we process this? How do we keep moving forward? What do you do to cope in moments like these?

Read to the end... and ask yourself, why? Look closely at this photo. It may seem like just a building, but if you look closer, you’ll see holes — scars from a bomb that hit our home in 1983 by Isr-ael . But that’s not the story I’m here to tell. I’m here to talk about family, love, and what it means to grow up between two worlds. Scroll through 👉🏽 these photos and videos, and at the end, I hope you’ll ask yourself the same question I do: Why are we seen so differently? I was born in Australia 🇦🇺 but my father wanted me to grow up in Lebanon 🇱🇧 surrounded by our family, our culture, and our traditions. He believed that we should grow up in the heart of our roots, amongst our people, to learn who we are and where we come from. And while we did, there was always this underlying reality—war, unrest, the world constantly chipping away at the places we call home 🥲 It’s ironic, isn’t it? In the West, there’s often resentment towards migrants and refugees. They ask why we come, but the truth is, we are here because the very countries they live in have been bombing ours for decades. We never wanted to leave our homes; we were forced to. Our families, our homes, and our childhood memories are left behind, often shattered, while we try to rebuild elsewhere❤️ My trip back home only a couple of month ago was wonderful. I spent time with family and created new memories that I’ll always hold dear. Some of the people you see in these photos, though, have already left their homes. Others are now forced to leave as well. And the rest? They wait with anxious hearts, knowing that more bombs will fall, knowing their world will soon be reduced to rubble 💔 I often wonder — why doesn’t the world see us, Arabs, as people who deserve to live in peace? Why is it that when they look at us, they see something different, something “other”? Take a moment to look at these photos and videos. At the end, you’ll see Gus and me, just two normal people, sharing a light moment, having some fun. Why is it that the world sees us as anything less than human💔
