I teach history in an elementary school outside the capital and i really looove my job.I am still a beginner cook but i am now turning it to one of my hobbies.During our lunch break, the teachers talk about food and what they are cooking every day. At the beginning i was too shy to discuss or talk to them about my cooking because they all seem sooooo experts.But now that my mother taught me some of her great recipe and I have discovered Shahiya I am cooking more and I feel confident to talk about it very freely… I am really proud of the recipe my mom gave me, especially the traditional Jordanian ones. My 2 kids are too young to taste them but I am sure that one day they will love them… These days my kids just love the desserts recipes that I found on shahiya.Thank you shahiya!! i have added some of my recipes and i hope you all enjoy them. Favorite things to cook: . Dishes I am famous for: my delicious sandwiches especially grilled eggplant Panini
