What does it mean for a dish to taste like home?
For more than two decades, Sami Tamimi has helped reshape how the world cooks Middle Eastern food. As the co-founder of Ottolenghi and co-author of bestselling cookbooks including Jerusalem, he’s introduced millions of home cooks to vibrant, vegetable-led cooking inspired by the flavours of the Middle East.
Now, with his first solo cookbook, Boustany, Tamimi returns to where it all began. Inspired by his childhood in Jerusalem and the boustan (garden) of his grandparents’ home, the book celebrates Palestinian food, seasonal cooking and the traditions that connect us to family, memory and place.
Discover how recipes become heirlooms, how stories shared around the table preserve culture and how cooking can become an act of resilience.
Join Tamimi as he reflects on his remarkable career, explores why the simplest ingredients often make the most memorable meals and why the best conversations so often begin around the table.
Bring your appetite.
