Checked this out for the Moroccan recipes and ended up copying about a dozen that sound delicious and not too difficult. Not as in-depth as Paula Wolfert's book "Couscous and Other Good Food from Morocco" but very accessible.

I wish this had more pictures that would communicate how awesome these dishes are. I was blessed to know what each recipe looks like! Overall, it's a REALLY good cookbook with authentic recipes. I know that it is probably directed to westerns and not middle easterns, but there is no real difference between that and a local cookbook. I actually love accurate universal measurements, so I prefer this one.
Can't wait to attempt Lahma Bel Ajeen and most of the salads. :D

This is a solid introduction to these cuisines, but I overall found this cookbook a little basic, meat-reliant, and wordy.

Oh, if I could only eat recipes from this book! Healthy, vegetable-rich and full of delicious pairings.

I am really looking forward to making recipes from this cookbook. I was interested in most of the Moroccan recipes... I'll be sure to update when I have tried them! :)

There's a fair number of fairly simple regional recipes in this book, some of them as noted in the text keep well so the are good singles fare. It lacks nutritional information and measures are imprecise but that's in keeping with the spirit of the book. If I see a copy of this at a used book store, I will probably buy it.
