I am Egyptian. I study at the American University in Cairo. Even though I'm 19 (goin' on 20) years old, I do have a hell lotta experience in the kitchen. I am a "mini-chef" if you like :D I really like cookin' anything as long as its fun. I like doin' new things all the time and testing new recipes. My family cooking traditions involve garlic, vinegar and onions in almost any (and every) kind of food. I really like the taste as it is always rich in spices. Cinnamon, cloves, pods...yep we use 'em all in such a blend that always tastes so good. I have managed to throw parties feeding upto 20 persons. Other than that, I have come up with a couple of recipes that I have found interesting. ...lets keep that aside. I'm just kidding, a good chef has nothin' to hide, I've ALWAYS failed in making good sweets (except buns). I never made any good cakes, cookies...etc. Take me to the saltier side of cooking and I know how to cook Indian, Chinese, Italian and Egyptian food. Oh yeah, also steaks and salads.
