Ouzi filo parcels from Boustany: A Celebration of Vegetables from my Palestine (page 224) by Sami Tamimi

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Chopped salad for every occasion (Salata mafrumeh); Tahini, tomato & mint dip (Tahinia ma' banadoura w na'na); Cucumber & feta yogurt with dill, almonds & rose (Khyar bil laban)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    The book's "Toasted nuts and seeds" called for in this recipe can be made in advance. Can substitute other short-grain rice for Egyptian rice, regular raisins for golden raisins, and regular chilli flakes for Aleppo chilli flakes.

    This was amazing! Cooked for Galentines dinner. Everyone loved it. The flavors were so good, and it wasn't too difficult to make. Although there are a lot of steps and ingredients. The recipe was not written too well. Was told to make mushrooms and set aside, but not told when to add them back to the recipe. Served with the cucumber yogurt salad, which took the amazing ouzi recipe and sent it over the top. Could make again without out the filo parcels and serve as a side dish.
