Jake puts his twist on Boreka hand pies; filled with tender white beans, spinach, and feta, this recipe can work as a side dish or is hearty enough to be the main course.
Jake makes two of his favorite super simple crowd-pleasers; first, Iraqi roast salmon slathered in a caramelized onion and tomato sauce that is packed with spice; then, a fudgy date brownie.
Jake is inspired by two dishes he learned from his mother-in-law and grandmother; the first is a Turk-ish leek burger inspired by Turkish meatballs; for dessert, it's a variation of his grandmother's cake with peach crumb bars.
Jake makes his sweet and savory lamb meatballs with pearled couscous, with cinnamon and cardamom snickerdoodles that have a slight hint of citrus.
