Here are some of the most deeply nourishing and flavourful recipes from Exotic Bazaar, each offering a blend of tradition and wholesome nutrition to enrich your Iftar experience:
The Persian love cake is truly amazing - I have made other recipes but they don't compare - just the right amount of rosewater and the icing and topping mix is delicious. The little jars of spices are very aromatic - I haven't yet tried the meal mixes.
Excellent, intense flavour. I coated pieces of chicken thigh in the ras-el-hanout, fried them with some garlic and onion, added a can of chickpeas and simmered everything for about 20 mins. It was very good with flat bread and a dollop of yoghurt, and even better the next day.
I hosted a morning tea for 11 women and the Persian Love Cake was a huge hit. It was the first time I had made it and it was simply delicious, so moist and beautifully fragrant. Such a beautiful aroma in the kitchen too while it was baking. I made it last night as directed for optimal flavour, then decorated it this morning. I already had the dried rosebuds to adorn the top of the cake.
I purchased the Love cake as an appropriate gift for my sister and brother-in-law’s 50th Wedding Anniversary. They were thrilled with the gift and said the cake was delicious.
