"Yoghurt cakes are always so moist. I love the sound of the lemon flavourings in this one. The recipe specifies natural yoghurt, but when I make it I plan to use creamy Greek yoghurt. I'm posting this recipe, which I found in 'The Best of Lebanese and Middle Eastern Cooking' for the 2005 Zaar World Tour."

Ingredients: bicarbonate of soda, cream...

"A traditional honey cake using almond meal instead of flour or semolina. Like many greek cakes, it is further enriched by a honey syrup, making it very rich. Greeks don't have a dessert like this after a meal - that would be too much of a good thing. Rather, we would have it with a cup of coffee in the early evening, after our afternoon siesta."

Ingredients: cream of tartar, eggs...

"I discovered this lovely fine-dining recipe while paging through my recipe scrapbooks. It's worth the time you spend on it, and is an unusual starter for a dinner. It is best made a day ahead (ahaa!!), covered, and chilled, because it's easier to slice (using a serrated knife) when cold and firmer."

Ingredients: cream cheese, dill, eggs...
