Basque Salad

When I lived in Elko, Nevada, I dined at the local Basque houses quite regularly. The meals are served “family style” and every meal begins with soda bread, cabbage soup, and a green salad. I got this recipe from a former co-worker who use to work at one of the Basque houses, so it’s a pretty authentic recipe. It is simple, but has a lot of flavor, especially if you like garlic! This salad is best served with chicken or steak.

Barbadian Souse

A delicious and very traditional dish prepared in various ways throughout the Caribbean and even Scotland. This however, is our way – the general Barbados/Bajan method. A MUST TRY!!

Bahraini Prawns / Shrimp in Tomato Sauce

Bahrainis love seafood & prawns are no exception – here is a typical way of cooking them in Bahrain. This dish is also nice with the addition of a little minced garlic.

Traditional Bahraini Chicken Machboos / Machbous

Machboos is a dish of rice & meat, popular in many Gulf countries & across Saudi Arabia. Here is a version which is traditionally made in Bahrain. If you don’t have any Buharat / Baharat spice mix, there are a few here on Zaar to choose from. If you don’t want to use a whole chicken, your favourite pieces would be fine too!

Kev’s Bahamian Baked Macaroni

A rich delicious recipe with lots of flavor and a little spicy Kick. A baked Macaroni like none you’ve had before. My husband is famous for this macaroni. Its a bit of work but worth it.
