Banana and tahini ice cream with date syrup : page 226
So simple - freeze up some bananas, and then grind them to an ice cream-like consistency. But don't stop there. Add tahini, a bit of salt, and serve with Date Syrup and sesame seeds.
The date syrup is what really sets this recipe apart. It is thick and sweet, but somehow seems less sweet than other syrups. And it was easier to find than I had imagined.
The tahini is also a nice touch with the bananas. It adds depth to this lovely sweet.

Stuffed Zucchini with spiced beef or lamb : page 190
When it is zucchini time, it can be difficult to find something interesting. But this was both different and a total delight!
Zucchini are scraped out and roasted. The "meat" from within the zucchini was also roasted. Meanwhile, ground meat is cooked with a lovely assortment of spices, including pomegranate molasses. Finally a mix of the cooked innards, tahini, and lemon juice is put on top.
This dish manages to stay fresh and light, the zucchini plays a supportive role, but its the meat and tahini sauce that really set this recipe apart from others.
