Episode 06: Sami Tamimi Crazy Sexy Food
-
- Food
I don’t usually fangirl over my guests but I must say I did over Sami Tamimi. He and Yotam Ottolenghi have created the menu I have devoured over the last decade, and are responsible for bringing sumac, za’atar and tahini into your cupboards. What a pleasure it was to talk all things Palestinian food with the man behind the new cookbook, Falastin.
From his upbringing in Palestine, when he’d be kicked out of the kitchen by all the females in his family, to becoming head chef at some of the most notable restaurants in Tel Aviv, Sami discusses his coming to London, meeting Yotam and eventually creating the string of delis and subsequent restaurants that have shaped the London food scene.
His new cookbook (co-written with Tara Wigley) delves into his homeland; the beautiful place that is Palestine. Through the media, we are filtered the political unrest and negativity, but Sami perfectly writes about Palestine through the stories of its inhabitants; empowering stories about resilience, optimism and strength. The recipes are easy to make, for the home cook and are absolutely delicious (I’ve already tried a few myself!).
