Breakfast with Shane Delia, 'Yes Please'

SBS Chef Shane Delia from Middle Eastern Feast shares his secret breakfast twist. As a result, it is inspirational to see how simple authentic dishes are so very simple once you know how.

All-together, Shane Delia explores his nostalgic memories of his childhood sitting with his grandfather and how simple food can be so good. Someone told me years ago as humans, we tend to make things over-complex, and getting back to simple is a lot harder than you think.

In short, Shane masters the middle eastern ingredients merging flavours in just a few ingredients. For some reason, I never thought of putting these middle eastern ingredients together. Yet alone making a healthy middle eastern breakfast that’s fresh and zesty.

For one thing, I can be sure that in restaurants and cafes across Australia, we will be replacing the Avocado and toast! With Shanes new twist on Breakfast. The first dish, Shane uses ricotta cheese a stable for any Mediterranean or Middle Eastern breakfast.

You have to try this. Drizzling, Alkanter Tahini and Solloum’s Carob Molasses over the cheese as the base for his simple dressing topped with some of the best quality Cortas extra virgin Olive Oil. The smile on his face says it all. It just looks so good, and it brings back memories of sitting with my grandparents.

In the second dish, he adds the fresh ingredients with that middle eastern twist Radishes and cucumbers. Using everything, even the leaves. Then again, in just a few steps, his middle eastern ingredients combine Cortas pomegranate molasses and Aleppo pepper as the spice. OMG! I can taste the sweet spices. Sounds delicious.

Just when you think it can’t get any better! He drizzles more Cortast Olive oil and lemon juice on top. I can feel my mouth exploding!
