Evenings with Aisha Al-Tamimi: Dishes from Qatar

Aisha Al-Tamimi and the team from the Food Forum in the National Museum of Qatar join Anissa Helou for two nights exploring the culinary traditions and influences of Qatari cuisine, including dishes such as Marguga, a delightful Qatari ‘pasta’ dish with vegetables; and Mashbuss, a traditional rice dish with chicken and spices.

Books for Cooks Sisters Maryam Abdullah and Aisha Al-Tamimi are prominent culinary figures in Qatar, where Maryam is one of the first women TV chefs. Both have published bestsellers across the Gulf.

Anissa Helou is a London-based cookbook author, teacher and chef specialising in the cuisines of the Mediterranean, Middle East and North Africa.
