Karen McLean

@secretsquirrelfood

Karen shows us how to create this sweet but tangy salmon recipe she calls Balsamic Fig Baked Salmon. It’s made up of salmon and sweet figs, and balanced by bitter rocket leaves, salty feta cheese and crunchy walnuts. This dish looks too good to be true. 

Latifa Al Shamsi

@latifalshamsi

Latifa shows us exactly how breakfast should be done with this absolutely divine spread of smoked salmon, fruits, nuts, danishes and muffins. Breakfast fit for royalty, indeed. 

Wadad Zarzour

@chef_woodz

Wadad shows us how to prepare prawn and coconut milk soup. Simple yet effective. Mmmm. 

Zahra Abdalla

@cookingwithzahra

Zahra’s eggplant parmigiana is a great dish to cook for the entire family and this meal prep has got us hot under the collar.
