The Taste of Bahrain: Chef Noor Murad's Journey Through Food & Culture

Chef Noor Murad joins us to talk about her first solo cookbook, "Lugma", a deeply personal collection of recipes inspired by her upbringing in Bahrain and her mixed English-Arab heritage. In this interview, she shares the meaning behind the book's title, her fusion cooking style, and some of her favourite dishes—like a Middle Eastern twist on the classic tuna jacket potato and a pistachio cake with labneh frosting. She also dives into the rich and under-appreciated cuisine of the Gulf, explaining the influence of Arabic, Indian, and Persian flavours and highlighting the magic of black limes (Loomi Aswad) in Bahraini cooking.
