Moroccon friends came over Friday night so I served a meal with a little Maghreb twist.

With the above I served a combo of coleslaw and Dutch wintersalad with bell pepper, cucumber, tomato and cornsalad. Carrot and haricots vert. Spicy olives with peppers, pepper sauce, cauliflower, kohlrabi, gurken and carrots. 4 kinds of beans with Méditerranée herbs and spice.

Lamb stew I cooked for 3 hours with dades, mint and ginger bread. Shoarma out of the airfryer.

    From friends and a part family and were I am from…Amsterdam. Mostly family…

    My sisters are married to Egyptian, Suriname and Moroccan SO’s.

    And then. My SO is Sefardic, I am supposed to be catholic…we all get together fine. I have ex-girlfriends from Poland, Ukraine and other parts of the world with good food, learned some love, language and recipes.

    Good food is an important thing in my life, I have grown up skinny and underfed on a (fad in those days) macrobiotic diet.

    I think the thing is to learn the basic cooking techniques, respect different cultures, eat at good homes and restaurants, write down the serious effort meals you cook, you’ll be sorry when you forget and you or your guests loved it, and have a bit of that Spongebob imagination when combining your menu.
