KUNAFE - KENAFE - KNAFE GIMZAWIA
A well known and delicious Arabic sweet commonly eaten in countries like Palestine and Jordan. This is a variation that my family does that does not contain "sweet cheese". Unlike other kenafe recipes, this one taste delicious reheated.

AN ARABIC BREAKFAST
This is a standard breakfast in Palestinian households. I'm just writing up what I ate for breakfast nearly every day while I was living in Jordan with my Palestinian in-laws. This is traditionally eaten on the ground, laid out on a tablecloth, with the people grouped around. All of the ingredients are optional (except for the olive oil and tea of course!). Palestinians normally just round up whatever they've got in the house at the moment -- this is the complete version! I've listed white cheese here, this is the standard cheese for Palestinians. I only know it by this name, if anybody knows another, more specific name, could you please tell me?

Steps:
- In a small frypan, put enough olive oil to nearly cover the bottom.
- Fry chunks of white cheese until golden on each side (but don't overdo it).
- Put along with oil onto small serving plate.
- Clean the frypan (or use another one) and use it to make Arabic style scrambled eggs.
- Place two tablespoons of olive oil in the pan along with 3 eggs and salt to taste (about 3 pinches).
- Lightly turn it with a fork (Arabic scrambled eggs aren't as scrambled as the 'normal' version) until there is no longer any egg liquid (it should only just be cooked no more).
- Put olives in a serving bowl.
- Put about 1/2 cup of zaatar in a serving bowl.
- Put 1/4 cup olive oil in a serving bowl and serve alongside zaatar.
- Cut tomatoes into wedges.
- Sprinkle small amount of salt over wedges (optional).
- Cut the ends off the cucumbers and slice each into 4 long strips.
- Put tomato wedges and cucumbers onto serving plate.
- Serve labaneh with olive oil drizzled on top.
- Serve mortadella sliced.
- Heat the Arabic bread either by using the stove top (gas ovens) and turning frequently or heating each piece in the microwave for 30 seconds (not the authentic way of doing it!) Make tea in pot as per usual but with the dried sage or mint added.
- Serve in Arabic teacups (usually small glass ones) with between 1-2 teaspoons sugar in each.
- (Note: mint needs less sugar than sage) Serve all of the above.
- The traditional way is to place a large tablecloth on the floor and eat seated on the ground.
- Eat with Arabic bread.

Steps:
- 48 hours before, soak the akkawi & haloumi cheese in a bowl of water, keep in the fridge. This is to remove any saltiness. If you can't find these cheeses, use mozzarella instead and skip the soaking part.
- Preheat oven to 200C. Shred the raw knafeh in a mixer until fine. Mix the shredded knafeh with lots of butter until well coated- it needs to literally soak in butter. Split the butter-coated knafeh into two equal amounts.
- Spread out one part of the knafeh onto a parchment paper lined baking tray. Then add the diced cheese, and finish off by covering with a layer of the remaining knafeh.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 180C, then check every 5 minutes. It is ready when it has become of a deep golden colour. During baking time, prepare the syrup by placing equal amounts of sugar and water into a deep pan and boil for a good 10 mins (until itâÃÂÃÂs texture is rather thick). At the end, add some orange blossom or rose water to the syrup.
- Once out of the oven, immediately pour over the syrup- generously. Sprinkle with some crushed pistachios and enjoy! A visual guide available at http://swirlandscramble.blogspot.com/2010/06/cant-get-enough-of-knafeh-bil-jibne.html
KANAFA
A favorite Palestinian dessert! Crunchy shredded phyllo dough is baked with a layer of creamy sweet cheese and then drenched in rosewater syrup. It's simple yet impressive. The cheese filling is traditionally made from Nabulsi cheese that is desalted. The ricotta-mozzarella mix is a great substitute, and lower-fat products can be used. If you have access to a Middle Eastern grocery, you can probably find kanafa dye, which turns the dough into the orange or reddish color that is the signature of kanafa.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Use a food processor to finely chop the frozen, shredded phyllo dough. The strands should be about the size of a grain of rice. Pour the dough into a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, and 1/3 cup sugar.
- Place the butter in a large liquid measuring cup or bowl with a spout. Heat the butter in a microwave until completely melted, and let it sit for several minutes until a thick white foam has formed on top. Clarify the butter by using a spoon to skim off the foam.
- Carefully pour the butter into the bowl of phyllo dough. Avoid pouring in the white milk solids at the bottom of the clarified butter. Use your hands to mix the butter and dough together. Make sure that the butter is absorbed by taking handfuls of the dough and rubbing it between your palms.
- Evenly spread the buttered phyllo dough into a 9x13-inch pan and firmly press it into the bottom and edges. Spread the cheese mixture onto the dough, avoiding the edges of the pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is slightly golden and the edges of dough are brown and bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes.
- While the kanafa is baking, prepare the syrup. Combine the water and 1/2 cup sugar in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the lemon juice. Simmer, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. (Do not let the mixture turn golden and caramelize.) Remove from heat and add the rose water; set aside.
- Remove the kanafa from the oven. Place a large platter or baking sheet over the baking dish. Using oven mitts, carefully invert the baking dish onto the platter so the phyllo is on top. Pour the syrup over the kanafa. Cut into pieces and serve while hot.
